disk to disk backups - In our ever shrinking 24x7 world, the backup and restore of data, to tape can cause problems in many ways:

  • Long backup windows - With read/write speeds of hours per Terabyte, tape systems often require unacceptably long backup windows, inhibiting access to applications and data resources.
  • Slow restore times - Restore times often take several hours, particularly if the data requested is stored on multiple tapes that must be loaded and unloaded.
  • Lack of scalability - Once the capacity of a tape library is reached, additional capacity cannot be added incrementally; another costly tape library must be purchased.
  • Cost and complexity - While tape media is inexpensive, tape libraries are not. In addition to high initial cost, tape libraries are costly to manage and maintain.

Solution: Cost-effective, Disk-to-Disk/ Disk-to-Disk-Tape

NexStor helps you meet your backup and restore challenges with cost-effective, flexible Disk-to-Disk Storage solutions. NexStor solutions combine the outstanding price/performance characteristics of ATA disk technology, the networking flexibility of iSCSI interface technology, and the availability of RAID technology. The result is a backup/restore solution that makes data rapidly accessible, while reducing overall costs.

NexStor has disk-based, iSCSI and Fibre Channel storage solutions that:

  • Accelerates restore times by 80% - With data transfer rates up to 30 times faster than tape, ATA-disk-based systems dramatically reduce restore times to make data available in minutes...instead of hours.
  • Shrink backup windows by 33% - This same speed advantage dramatically accelerates backup, reducing the time that data and applications are unavailable. A backup that might take days to complete to tape can be completed to disk in hours.
  • Enhance data protection - Advanced ATA disk-based systems support a wide range of business continuance features, including snapshot backups and local and remote mirroring and replication.
  • Link Storage Resources - Seamless IP network integration permits rapid, easy remote backup and restore. This makes the NexStor solutions ideal for backing up remote offices to enterprise Data Centers or disaster recovery locations.
  • Scale Easily - NexStor solutions can be scaled rapidly and cost-effectively for both capacity and performance. Keep pace with growing demands, adding only the capacity and performance they need.
  • Decrease Downtime - RAID storage arrays with highly reliable ATA disks ensure data availability and integrity, even in the event of a disk failure. Planned downtime and unplanned downtime are minimized.
  • Reduce Management Cost and Complexity – NexStor backup and restore solutions offer simple, centralized management of all storage resources.

Looking for a Disk to disk backup solution?

Did you know that unstructured data makes up over 80% of an organisations information store? Did you also know that on average over 85% of this data as not been look at/opened in over 90 days?

Imagine the impact on your IT environment if you could remove this static data from both your primary storage and backup regime? NexStor can offer a solution that will allow you to send multiple copies of these “old” files to multiple remote locations at the same time.
