New software-defined storage innovations from Veritas enable and optimise machine learning intelligence to help customers increase their information capital through deeper levels of classification, indexing and analytics.
“New applications like artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are driving soaring volumes of data, while data governance regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), are causing complex data protection and storage challenges for customers,” said Greg Hughes, CEO, Veritas. “At Veritas, we’re focused on helping our customers easily protect and manage their data.”
