The storage industry, more than other IT areas, is currently experiencing a major technology
change. What is the key reason for this change?

A.
Many storage systems are not built to handle big data, which requires a fully virtualized
environment.

B.
Many customers are moving to cloud-based service delivery and do not have the IT
infrastructure nor storage capacity to cope with the increased data demands.

C.
Many storage systems today, whether they are monolithic or modular, can handle only
application-unique data.

D.
Most storage systems available today were designed to cope with IT requirements of 15-20
years ago and are built to handle application-unique silos, predictable workloads, and structured
data.
