ESG’s Steve Duplessie Endorses Data Defined

ESG’s Steve Duplessie Endorses Data Defined
Overview
Founder of ESG, Steve Duplessie endorses Data Defined approaches and discuss his misgivings around software-defined stating that:
- IT is a function of the organization to support the business in order to make money or save money
- IT’s primary function is to keep, store, deliver and protect corporate data
- All value that IT facilitates from the business is derived directly from that data
Steve suggests that software-defined can only work systematically if it takes its orders from the data not the recipient, and for those reasons, he suggest organizations consider the concept of Data Defined Storage.
