Giga Information Group's TEI ™ Study finds Network Appliance Delivers Positive Economic Impact for Nearline Storage

ABOUT THIS WHITE PAPER

Date Published:
01 SEP 2002

About the White Paper:
This study from Giga Inforamtion Group shows how Network Appliance's NearStore solution for backup and recovery can result in a 98% return on investment in 15 months.

Giga used its Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) methodology and model to obtain estimates for the costs and benefits of the NearStore solution in backup/recovery operations. TEI is a way of quantifying the full impact of a technology investment by considering four elements of any initiative:

Benefits

Costs (sometimes referred to as total cost of ownership (TCO))

Flexibility

Risk

NearStore is a disk-based, nearline storage solution based on NetApp's Data ONTAP operating system coupled with economical, high capacity ATA-based disk drives.
