Extending
the Power of Data De-Duplication across the Enterprise
Data de-duplication is on the minds of IT Managers around the world. And rightfully
so: it’s an enabling technology that can dramatically increase
the power of disk for backup and disaster recovery. But existing approaches
have been limited in scale, scope, and flexibility. The new DXi7500 extends
the power of de-duplication across the enterprise and provides customers
with choice: a full range of capacity and performance points, flexible
policies for de-duplication, and options to integration directly with
tape.

Quantum Teams with Symantec to Deliver Integrated Disk and Tape Solution
Quantum and Symantec have teamed together to deliver a multi-tier backup
solution that integrates disk and tape in an enterprise solution. Quantum
is the first vendor to support NetBackup’s Direct to Tape feature
in its new DXi7500 de-duplication solution. The DXi7500 was designed to
enable data movement directly between disk and tape, offloading this burdensome
task from the media server and the network. NetBackup’s 6.5 Direct
to Tape feature provides customers with the ability to apply different
lifecycle policies and catalog updates associated with the virtual copy
on disk and the physical copy on tape. Together, these two powerful capabilities
allow customers to leverage disk, de-duplication, and tape in a fully-managed
solution.

University Learns How to Cut Backup
Time in Half
The University of St. Thomas performs 20 TB full backups over the weekends,
supplemented by daily 1 TB incremental backups. St. Thomas needed to shorten
their backup window while increasing reliability and performance, so they
sought a solution with more throughput and capacity while filling a need
for longer-term data storage. By deploying a de-duplication solution and
tape libraries from Quantum, they were able to shorten their backup window,
increase reliability and capacity, and meet their archive needs.
