To paraphrase someone famous, «The definition of insanity is to do something the same way over and over again and expect a different result».
Humans are creatures of habit and when it comes to storage, old habits die hard.
Why do we continue to put our faith in legacy storage providers when they haven’t invented anything new in decades. Sure, they re-badge their products every couple of years to make their messaging look modern, but ultimately, it’s the same old stuff with a new coat of lipstick.
Asides from becoming smaller, faster and cheaper to acquire, but much more expensive and complex to run, storage technology is exactly as it was when it was released 60 or 70 years ago.
