Typical IT organizations have formed separate but highly interdependent groups to manage applications, servers, data, and storage. The administrators in each group are highly specialized and focused on the efficient management of their individual areas, but many tasks require collaboration between functional areas for effective execution. The absence of linkage between these areas has resulted in operational inefficiencies and rapid escalation in storage management costs. Integrated Data Management (IDM) is a new approach to simplifying data management and improving IT productivity by linking application data requirements to storage management processes. The IDM approach combines process automation with role-based access security to deliver significant increases in IT management efficiency and storage resource utilization.
