With the amount of data a business accumulates now doubling every 12 to 18 months, IT professionals need to know how to develop a system for archiving important database data, in a way that both satisfies regulatory requirements and is durable and secure.

• Explores the role of players at every level of the organization—in terms of the skills they need and the contributions they can make.
