The petrochemical industry heavily depends on data for decision-making, operational efficiency, and compliance.
The main challenge that organisations in the petrochemicals industry face is that of access to data. Most typically have head office environments and several remote sites, such as refineries, depots and even oil rigs, across which their data is stored. Even if they do have access to it, they also face the challenge of ensuring that it is properly classified.
In terms of disaster recovery, keeping a copy of their data offsite can help companies to recover when something goes wrong. From a compliance point of view if any data goes missing or becomes corrupt due to a cyberattack, they have air-gapped, secure data accessible offsite that they can use to recover and still keep historic information as required. A single pane of glass for data management makes it easier to manage and control these various compliance and recovery objectives.
Petrochemical companies should adopt data management solutions that can cater for hybrid workloads with data that lives in data centres, remote sites or cloud environments. These solutions help companies understand where their data is, classify this data, understand the importance of the data and enable data protection. This will define where specific data needs to live and how many copies of the data are needed.
