As we exit the spooky season, we're checking in with our resident database expert and Field Solutions Architect, Anthony Nocentino, to revisit the common problems that plague data management. Anthony shares customer anecdotes around several places that DBAs struggle to maintain consistent database operations and how Pure can help alleviate these challenges. Why is it important to businesses to deliver consistent response times to end users? What are the impacts of downtime? How can improved and streamlined copy/clone and refresh processes positively impact business value creation and why are snapshots the key to this? And yes, we hit on scripting, PowerShell, and automation - all friends to the DBA to automate daily tasks and spend less time in swivel-chair management. It's all about satisfying the end users and application owners and their need for consistent and reliable data where and when they need it - and Pure does it best.
