Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) is a sustainable storage strategy that balances the cost of storing and managing information with its business value. In the early stages of an ILM implementation, most of the focus and benefits are internal to IT. In later stages, most of the benefits accrue to the overall business. This paper represents an open invitation to business executives to help them prepare to maximize their potential benefits from information lifecycle management.
