One other point that I don't think has been mentioned yet is that if you
have configured only one concurrent backup, something that slows down a
single host like a big upgrade or set of new files to the point where it
takes the whole backup window will cause the backups scheduled later to
be missed. A little more obviously, if you are running some remote
backups over slow links you probably want them to run concurrently with
local runs since their disk use will be throttled by the bandwidth limit.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
