**Notes:**
Thanks for your time to discuss energy efficiency.
It’s pretty clear that the data center is at a turning point.
Its strategic importance has never been greater as more organizations recognize that their digital information is one of their most important assets. 
The quantity of information under management is exploding.
This growth requires putting more and more data in less space.
And there are increasing power requirements and power costs.
This morning I want to focus on hardware and software technologies, services, and management practices that – in combination -- can not only help drive down energy consumption but also drive up the strategic value of the data center.
EMC has a 17 year history of engineering energy efficient storage solutions. Because of the growing energy crisis, we have increased our focus and are now ready to give you this update.

## Enterprise Archiving

**Enterprise Archive**

*A common set of middleware services for collecting, classifying, retaining, migrating, securing and discovering all types of information*

- Retain

- Migrate

- Discover

- Reuse

- Classify

-  Authenticity
-  Completeness
-  Integrity
-  Retention
-  Official Copy
-  Accessibility
-  Recovery
-  Audit

- Administer
- IRM Protect

**Notes:**
Major launch at SNW – 4/06

## Preservation throughout the Organization 

- Enterprise Content Subject to Compliance Control

- Unstructured Content

- Structured Content

**Unmanaged Unstructured Content**

- Network File Shares

- Desktops

**Managed Unstructured Content**

- Sharepoint

- ECM System

- Custom

**Manage In-place Structured Content**

- LegacySystems

- Other Active Systems

**ETL Structured Content**

- Page-Oriented Data

- Database Content

- Line-oriented Data

**Common Services**

- Classification

- Search

- Policy Enforcement

- Disposition

## Most Concerned Technology?

- Federated RM
- Immutability of external content
- Ability to enforce retention/holds
- Continuous monitoring of external content

## Least Concerned Technology?

- ECM and HW Technology
- Extensible Object model via SOA/Web Service
- Native format mgt. with metadata and renditions
- Enforced integrity at SW/HW levels
- Assurance Engine
- Information Rights Mgt. (IRM/DRM)
- Content Addressable Storage (CAS)

## Discussion Topics: Cost, Reliability, Migration

- Software/Technology Standards Now:
- World RM Standards – DoD 5015.2, VERS, MoREQ2
- XML, PDF/A
- Dublin Core
- Vendor independent ILM tools
- MD5 hashing
- Integrity checking engines
- Open, standards based platforms
- De-duplication technology
- SISA – Secure Information Sharing Architecture
- _[www.sisaalliance.com](http://www.sisaalliance.com/)_

## Discussion Topic: Security

- Now:
- Common Criteria
- IRM/DRM
- DoD 5015.2 Chapter 4
- Enterprise encryption key management

## Most Useful Hardware Function to Support Item 1

- Absolute immutability via continuous replication and integrity checking

## Final Thoughts

- Unified Architecture
- Scalability
- SOA/Web Services
- Pervasiveness
- Open, Standards Based Platform
- Interoperable SW/HW
- Object Oriented Storage
- eXtensible Access Method (XAM)
- _[www.SNIA-DMF.ORG/XAM/HOME](http://www.snia-dmf.org/XAM/HOME)_
- _[www.CASCOMMUNITY.ORG](http://www.cascommunity.org/)_
- Multi vendor demo slated for SNW Oct 15-18
