Traditionally, companies stored data in filing cabinets and eventually shredded it to make room for more. The digital age changed data storage. During the last couple of decades, data centers assumed the role of filing cabinets and now store massive amounts of data. But data centers are not traditional IT assets.
Prior to digital storage, when it was time to make room for more data, files were simply shredded. Now, it’s a much more complex process. Data center installations, transitions, and asset decommissioning include processes like data erasure, asset verification and management, and disconnection and deinstallations. These processes are best left to professionals to ensure no data is leaked and no assets are damaged.
IT asset management and disposition enterprises like HOBI collect retired IT assets and ensure they are disposed of properly.
