Our Mission
The Storage Networking Industry Association’s Data Management Forum (DMF) is a cooperative initiative of IT professionals, integrators and vendors working to define, implement, qualify and teach improved and reliable methods for the protection, retention and lifecycle management of electronic data and information.
Information management is much more than technology. The business processes and practices that underpin the creation, use and protection of information are equally important.
The DMF is currently operating three initiative-based workgroups: The Data Protection Initiative (DPI), Information Lifecycle Management Initiative (ILMI), and The Long Term Archive and Compliance Storage Initiative (LTACSI). Each initiative is chartered with the development and deployment of best practices for a specific subset of data management functions.
Due to the growing interest in data deduplication and space reduction solutions, the DMF DPI has been tasked by SNIA DMF to form a Special Interest Group (SIG) focusing on this topic.
