Noted Storage Analyst Dan Tanner Opens ProgresSmart for Business
Dan Tanner, well known for making provocative, often controversial business and technology predictions well in advance, that turn out to come true, in opening his company, ProgresSmart (www.progressmart.com).
Westboro, MA August 13, 2004 - ProgresSmart helps companies evaluate the entire panoply of networked storage options and solutions: Network Attached Storage (NAS), Storage Area Networks (SAN) and Content Addressable Storage (CAS). Also, backup, archiving, recovery, replication, compliance, data protection, disaster protection, business continuance solutions and Information Lifecycle Management (ILM). And, storage networking choices: Fibre Channel (FC) and Ethernet/IP-based iSCSI.
ProgresSmart can help businesses choose optimal storage solutions that will endure. ProgresSmart helps storage market vendors determine strategies and move product lines by offering clearly enunciated value propositions.
I will give my clients, whether they are users or vendors, the full benefit of unfettered insights, said Tanner. I am practically retired, and doing this mainly to keep my mind active. Ill also work inexpensively, because I have no overhead, he added.
Among Tanners leading positions taken:
· Publishing early and definitively on storage virtualization.
· Predicting and writing that IP storage networking would win out.
· Calling for NAS-SAN convergence years ahead of others.
· Leading in pointing out the relationship between blade servers and SAN storage, TCP offload Engines (TOEs) and iSCSI.
· Explaining why intelligence belongs in-network.
· Being the first ever scheduled to be a Storage Networking World speaker on Information Lifecycle Management (ILM).
· Indicating at storage security conferences, well in advance of compliance legislation and regulations, the importance of archiving.
· Enunciating the differing compliance requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley (emphasis on preventing tampering, and saving) and HIPAA (emphasis on privacy), and how the differences play with Content Addressable Storage (CAS).
Operating from semi-retirement, said Tanner, I wont need to be a typical pay for play consulting, analyst, publishing firm, worried about potentially offending a future client or advertiser. My clients will benefit by hearing the truth, presented in context, with its implications.
If your company can use ProgresSmarts counsel, contact Dan Tanner at 1-508-366-7980 or dan@progressmart.com.
