The move from centralized data stores on mainframe systems to distributed systems spanning the globe has increased the costs and complexity of storing business data.  In addition, lawsuits and new government data retention regulations such as Sabannes-Oxley and HIPPAare driving up storage requirements.  The traditional model of supporting single purpose servers with their own dedicated DAS storage is expensive.  In fact, the need for increased storage often drives the purchase of additional servers.  IT organizations are realizing that this is an unmanageable model.
