As we know, technology is becoming more interwoven into the critical business practices of nearly every business operating today. Released in a recent study, Statista estimates that the volume of data created over the past ten years has gone from 2 Zettabytes in 2010 to an astounding 59 zettabytes in 2020! Even more interestingly, the volume of data created by 2024 is projected to triple in size compared to the values of 2020. We are quickly entering an age where data is the currency of today’s business, and a business’s success now depends on the ability to transmit and collaborate on data effectively.
So, how are organizations faring as we enter this more interconnected, data-dependent age? Well, many organizations are finding that the traditional tools to support data transfer and collaboration simply aren’t holding up. Take, for example, solutions built on the data transfer protocol FTP. FTP provided a great solution for clear-text small file transfers at short distances. However, now as we enter a more data-driven interconnected global economy, solutions built on FTP aren’t holding up. This is where new solutions such as Aspera have entered the market to provide a better answer for businesses transmitting and collaborating on data at the speed and scale of today’s technology-dependent business.
