Databases are the currency of the business world. As has happened with so many other IT services, database management and administrative has become costly and complex exercise.
IT staff struggle with manual maintenance procedures and business units continually seek to adopt new and different database technologies to solve new business challenges and to take advantage of the plethora of data that is created daily.
Moreover, as organizations have sought real-time insight, there has been a melding of what were once separate silos of transactional and analytical data. This merging has resulted in strain on poorly-prepared architectures, which now need to support vastly different operational paradigms.
During this keynote, viewers will get answers to the following questions:
• What factors led to the current state of database management?
• What infrastructure challenges do databases impose on organizations?
• What activities take place every day that place so much strain in IT resources in terms of managing databases?
• How can Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) help organizations eject cost and chaos from the database equation and replace them with affordable ease of use?
