With the sheer volume of unstructured data yet to be created and used in the years ahead, it's safe to say that the way organizations manage their data will need to evolve.

In the analyst brief, Burgener urges organizations to implement a comprehensive data management strategy to confront this increasing influx of data, noting that a data mobility engine provides the foundation for an effective data management strategy and can drive significant benefits for the hybrid multicloud enterprise.

With more complete metrics, data residency can be managed to ensure that data is kept in the "Best" location and obsolete data is identified and deleted.

While more companies are reassessing their unstructured data storage needs to keep up with the increasing amounts of human and machine-generated data, most enterprises are searching for a viable solution when it comes to executing on a comprehensive data management strategy, Burgener's report reveals.

Over the last several years, more and more IT leaders come with concerns around data classification, data visibility, and organization-wide data accessibility, as well as how to handle aging data and the high costs that result from a fragmented data management strategy.

Finally, Burgener states in his report that "The benefits of an effective data management strategy include reduced IT costs, easier data sharing, better security, less legal exposure, and an improved ability to demonstrate governance and regulatory compliance."
