Sun StorEdge Backup To Disk Solution

In today’s information intense economy, businesses create large amounts of data and rely more and more on this information for businesses operations. Adding to the complexity are the requirement to protect mission-critical data within the realm of shrinking backup windows, limited IT budgets, better utilization of storage assets, and tightening recovery and backup service levels. By implementing Sun StorEdge Backup To Disk, customers enhance their backup and recovery operation without compromising their existing tape backup process. The key benefits are:

  • Backup and Recovery at disk speeds to meet stringent service level requirements
  • Automated high-speed staging and cloning with single step recovery
  • Lower TCO of tape storage by reducing wear and tear of tape drives and cartridges
  • Huge reduction in data access time, allowing Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) to be met
  • Shortened backup times allow the growing volumes of data to be backed up on time
  • Reduction of operational and management expenses

 

Backup To Disk is a fast growing market segment in the overall Western European Storage Market of $4.1B. The necessity arises in customers’ environments that have typically a minimum of 6 to 8 servers running key applications; along desktops, laptops, web servers and other less-critical application areas.

The implementation of backup and recovery has been a watchword in the storage market for many years for good reason. Today, 80% of IT managers fear the loss of company data above all other problems. However with the ever-increasing reliance on data, companies no longer can accept the time it takes to recover data from tape, as well as work with the ever growing backup times (and the resulting shrinking backup windows). Staging technologies such as Backup To Disk allow the data to be backed up to ‘transient’, fast disk storage, from where it can be archived to removable media such as tape.
