backup impact, supporting higher productivity levels for
business workers
Repurposes backup server systems to other
workloads
Efficient use of networks through combined effect of data
reduction from compression, encryption and deduplication
Eliminate the cost of tape cartridges from remote sites Ability to enforce common policies for data management across
all data, including data created in remote sites
Eliminate service contracts requiring tape collection
from each remote site
Ability to report on management of all data, including centralized
data, for executive oversight and validation
Eliminate or reduce human error in data management Higher levels of reliability for preservation of data for disaster
recovery and legal discovery purposes
Remove the burden of tape rotation and oversight of
backup/recovery from remote sites
Higher levels of data reliability and reduced cost of remote office
data protection
However, until now, this type of approach has been too complex for many
organizations to deploy. In particular, IT teams with limited resources have been
reluctant to change what they have done to protect remote site data because of
concerns with network costs and security of the data, and because adding
replication software required to centralize data from remote sites has not been
simple enough.
The Dell DL2100 powered by CommVault Simpana replication software solves the
complexity issue for all types of organizations, large and small, and offers a
method for centralizing data from remote sites that is simple, network‐efficient,
and secure. Dell has solved the complexity problem by offering a drop‐in storage
device with all of the capabilities required to replicate data over WAN for any end‐
user file, email or application data stored on the storage system. Dell also
preserves the flexibility to deploy a software agent for replication from smaller
sites, where adding storage may not be desirable. This solution also ensures
network efficiency and data security over networks, with the use of CommVault
Simpana replication which combines data compression, encryption and
deduplication.
For virtually the first time, data centralization can be simple, efficient and secure
for all organizations and remote sites, large and small. The Dell DL2100 powered
by CommVault Simpana replication will help to accelerate company initiatives to
capture, protect and preserve all data through the adoption of disk‐based
initiatives and tape‐elimination strategies – even for data on the edge of their
organizations.
