It seems like only a few weeks ago, 2017 was starting. But here we are again, and it’s time for another NetWorker usage survey. If you’re a recent blog subscriber, you may not have seen previous surveys, so here’s how it works:<\/p>\n

Every year a survey is run on the NetWorker blog to capture data on how businesses are using NetWorker within their environment. As per previous years, the survey runs from December 1 to January 31. At the end of survey, I analyse the data, crunch the numbers, sacrifice a tape to the data protection deities and generate a report about how NetWorker is being used in the community.<\/p>\n

My goal isn’t just for the report to be a simple regurgitation of the data input by respondents. It’s good to understand the patterns that emerge, too. Is deduplication more heavily used in the Americas, or APJ? Who keeps data for the longest? Is there any correlation between the longevity of NetWorker use and the number of systems being protected? You can see last year’s survey results here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Survey<\/a><\/p>\n

To that end, it’s time to run the 2017 NetWorker survey. Once again, I’m also going to give away a copy of my latest book, Data Protection: Ensuring Data Availability<\/a><\/strong>. All you have to do in order to be in the running is to be sure to include your email address in the survey. Your email address will only be used to contact you if you win<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The survey should hopefully only take you 5-10 minutes.<\/p>\n

The survey has now closed. Results will be published mid-late February 2018.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
