Solution Description
Challenge
Legacy tape-based backup and recovery methods cannot keep pace with data growth, retention requirements, and the impact of server virtualization.
Technology Solution
Next-generation disk and network-optimized backup and recovery with data deduplication are the answer.
Today’s data protection demands are rapidly outstripping the capabilities of legacy tape-based solutions.
The volume of data you must manage and protect continues to grow exponentially, and retention requirements further complicate data management.
In addition, while virtual servers consolidate and streamline data management, they create backup bottlenecks and additional storage management challenges. Backup redesign has become imperative for IT organizations in order to optimize their virtualization initiatives and meet service-level agreements, data compliance mandates, and budgetary constraints.
