EZINE:
Data replication has taken center stage in hot storage technologies and is a fundamental component of DR and backup and recovery operations. This issue's cover story explores where best to deploy replication: in the array, network or servers. Plus, check out features on power-smart disk systems, value-based data protection, deduplication...
ANALYST BRIEF:
Even with the addition of a virtual tape library (VTL) solution to the backup environment, performance bottlenecks caused by inefficiencies on the host side of the backup process remain a challenge. This can now be addressed with an add-on to FalconStor VTL that accelerates backups four to eight-fold and reduces impact on production servers.
CASE STUDY:
This one-page case study explores how one vendor's DR solution helped an organization reduce their backup window by more than 50%, shrink their duplicate data with an average deduplication ratio of 7:1 and maximize their efficiency through reporting and capacity planning capabilities.
EGUIDE:
This expert guide presents an in-depth overview of each option, covering both the strengths and weaknesses. Find out how hardware and software-based approaches can be used in conjunction and discover the speed and cost benefits dedupe can bring to cloud backup.
ANALYST REPORT:
FalconStor commissioned Demartek to validate the performance of the FalconStor VTL solution and its deduplication solutions, as they come from the factory, without any special tuning adjustments. The sustained performance of these solutions is impressive, and was measured using conservative data intended to be typical of many enterprises.
MICROSITE:
IBM Virtualization Engine TS7700 is a virtual-tape solution designed to optimize tape processing. With one solution, the implementation of a fully integrated tiered storage hierarchy of disk and tape takes advantage of the benefits of both technologies to enhance performance and provide the capacity needed for today’s tape processing requirements.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper explains the disk options and their capabilities as well as the other new features in NetBackup 6.5 that make up the Enterprise Disk Foundation, also it provides guidance in choosing the appropriate disk options for your environment.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
This presentation transcript explores the primary technological differences inherent in the various forms of data deduplication currently available.
ANALYST REPORT:
IDC interviewed eight FalconStor customers that had deployed at least one or a combination of the following FalconStor storage management solutions: Virtual Tape Library (VTL), Network Storage Server (NSS), and Continuous Data Protector (CDP). All customers reported high levels of satisfaction.
