YouTube Statistics
• 107 trillion emails in 2010 - 89% of which was spam
• 144 billion emails sent in 2012….per day
• 100 + hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute
• US IP traffic predicted to be 10^24 Exabytes/month by 2015
File data will grow by 67x between 2009 and 2020 and will constitute over 85% of all data
Last yearDigital information grew 57%
whileIT spending grew a meager 3%.

Considerations for Disk… Random access, fast access, reliability and
relative ease Have been enjoying volume & margin
Margin under pressure from flash Volume under pressure from tape side…why?

Cost considerations…..
Cloud Idea not new - remember storage service providers Perceived as Simple, Easy
no equipment, procurement, management, etc. Especially when budgets are tight
Public, Private, Private shared (hybrid)…. Investigate…..
- Cost details?- Bulk recall?- Control, and search?- Access time vs cost- Performance vs cost- Vendor lock, Switching cost- Asset Location?- Network cost
