ABSTRACT
This book is not about futures. This book is about intelligently applying storage technologies to affordably deliver the best service levels. It’s hard to accomplish that with yet-to-be-delivered technologies. However, there are important trends in managed hosting and cloud computing in use today. This section is not about future, undelivered technologies; instead, this section provides a stepping-stone approach with your people, processes, and technologies today that will prepare you to take advantage of soon-to-be-mainstream technologies.
