Managing and Protecting Data for IoT | Veeam's Rick Vanover

IoT For All Podcast · 12 Oct 2020 · 25m

What this episode covers

Rick Vanover, Senior Director of Product Strategy at Veeam, discusses the critical but often overlooked need for data backup and protection in IoT deployments. He explains that while IoT solutions are often deployed by business units without IT involvement, the resulting data at the edge requires protection to safeguard ROI and ensure compliance. Vanover highlights how 5G connectivity democratizes data movement, enabling organizations to scrape and protect edge data, though cloud egress costs must be carefully managed. He advises IT decision-makers to collaborate with business units early, using proof-of-concepts to determine the optimal mix of on-prem, cloud, and edge strategies for data governance.
