A company wants to replace its physical tape library with a virtual tape library (VTL). To deploy the
VTL, the company spends $300,000 for the hardware costs and $50,000 for the implementation
charges.
Once the data is migrated from the physical tape library to the VTL, the physical tape library will be
decommissioned for a cost of $50,000. The company will gain $70,000 per month due to this VTL
implementation.
