EMC Corp unveiled a number of new backup offerings that help ease the burden
that data centers are facing in dealing with the ever-expanding digital
universe. These new solutions, introduced to thousands of attendees at EMC
World, leverage data de-duplication, disk drive spin down and low-power disk
drives, and continue to lower the cost of disk-based backup versus tape.
EMC offers hardware, software and services that meet the world's digital
backup, recovery and archiving needs, from individual consumers to the world's
largest data centers.
Mark Sorenson, Senior VP-Information Management Software Group, EMC said,
“This announcement continues EMC's momentum in the backup and recovery
market, allowing us to offer customers both integrated backup and recovery
solutions and standalone products. By adding key features like data
de-duplication across our portfolio, customers can eliminate redundant data,
move more easily to disk backup, and strengthen the management of their backup
infrastructures. This differentiates EMC from other vendors who must 'force-fit'
a single product across a range of de-duplication use cases. As data growth
continues to create challenges for customers of any size, the breadth of the EMC
portfolio ensures that customers will have the right solution for their backup
and recovery needs.”
The new products:
- EMC disc library (DL) 3D 1500 and 3000: Local
area network (LAN) backup-to-disk systems targeted at midsize businesses and
featuring policy-based data de-duplicated backup, EMC five-9s (99.999
percent) storage platform and IP replication to help customers ensure
availability, reduce the amount of backup data and meet off-site protection
requirements without physically transporting tapes.
- EMC DL 4000: Open systems
virtual tape library (VTL) features data de-duplication, spin down and disk
drives to reduce power and cooling by up to 47 percent.
- EMC Avamar data store Gen 2 and EMC
Avamar 4.0: This features global source-based data de-duplication
technology, provides a host of new scale, support, and ease-of-use features,
including a doubling of backup capacity per system. Now, customers use up to
43 percent less energy per terabyte backed up and reduce total cost of
ownership (TCO) by up to 25 percent compared to the first-generation
solution-and by up to 75 percent relative to tape. This makes it easier to
manage more information and eliminate the strain on the infrastructure
caused by backing up duplicate copies of data on a regular basis.
- EMC NetWorker Fast Start: A
new, simplified package of NetWorker backup software designed for growing
midsize businesses that cuts deployment time by as much as 75 percent and
decreases the number of installation steps by up to 80 percent. The software
provides a single backup solution for one price, with one model, and one
simple installation.
