The Challenges of Storing Data

Resulting in higher costs and lower productivity

Long deployment time Inability to scale business needs

Infrequent backups, tedious recovery Unacceptable availability levels

Growing complexity and inefficiency

Difficulty protecting data

Lack of scalability and flexibility

Unsustainable management overhead Excess of management tools

Mounting managementheadaches

Mix of DAS, file servers, and SAN Poor utilization of storage

N-series Deduplication – End-to-End

Besparelser på alle tiers– Primær, backup og arkiv data– 50% pladsbesparelse eller mere– 95% eller mere for backup data– Indbygget I storage systemet

Storage-effektiv virtualisering– OS & application images– Generel Fil data

“We decided to utilize N-series SnapMirror® for replication and Deduplication,

and these became a driving factor in our solution [achieving 80% storage savings on VMware® backup data with Deduplication].” A Global Financial Services Firm

Improve Backup and Recovery

Challenges Long, disruptive backups

– Infrequent because of overhead and disruption

Windows® application downtime

– Lack of coordination between application and storage

Complicated restoration

– Multiple administrators and systems

– Inability to quickly and reliably restore the right data



Frequent Backups and Restore in Minutes

Near-instant backups of all data

Eliminate backup windows and application downtime

Application-aware backup to produce consistent backups

Exchange, SQL Servers®, SharePoint and Virtualization

Simple restores

View previous backups and restore individual files and single mailboxes

Integrates with Windows® Virtual

Shadow Copy Service

“Backup times were reduced 99%, from 36 hours to 20 minutes, and e-mail restores take 25 minutes instead of 24 hours.”



Reduce Disruptions by 50%

Highly reliable platforms

RAID-DP® and active-active controllers -- more reliable than DAS

Cost effectively mirror data to minimize downtime

Leverage IP network Automate failover with minimal

disruption

Simple installation and easy operation and testing

Apply it to application, files, and virtualization

Primary Data Center

“By minimizing the chance of any downtime, the N-series systems have more than paid for themselves.”

Scale to Handle Growth

Challenges Growth in data not matched by abilities

of storage

– Deploy new capacity everytime Inaccurate capacity and performance

planning

– Poor utilization

– Missed SLAs

– Compromised file protection and availability

Difficult to add new storage services without additional resources

Servers and Storagein Confined Silos



Most storage functionality per square foot in the data center

Performance and capacity Allocate, grow, and shrink storage

Flexible (thin) provisioning to get better control and higher efficiency
