        <revisions>
          <rev>It will take some years before the market decides what combinations of storage topologies are optimum, as vendors and customers try different approaches to melding file system, disk storage, tape storage and network technologies. Organizations should ensure that experience is gained with multiple storage approaches, including emerging clustered designs for so-called cloud computing (e.g. [[Google File System]], EMC's Hulk/Maui, etc). Such new architectures support an always-on approach and presume failure of components such that [[Data that never needs to be backed up?|traditional backup]] may not be necessary. 

These technologies should be tested at all stages from application design to operational implementation. Storage needs to be organized to encourage different approaches, including outsourcing storage to third parties.

          <rev>Organizations must periodically [[The paradox of long retention policies|revisit retention policies]] to ensure they align not only with regulatory edicts but also business imperatives. Where legacy policies are outdated and inadequate, leaders must attack the problem head on by organizing cross-functional teams involving records management, legal, IT, business units and auditing to perform a risk/reward analysis and set cogent policies based on ever-changing business requirements.
