Consolidate your data from multiple fragmented systems and manage it from a single interface
More data, less resource to manage it

Common challenges:
- Evolving technology and resources to support it
- High maintenance costs and legacy infrastructure

- Risk of data loss with reputational impact
- Application availability for remote working and teaching
