Executive summary

Data backup and recovery solutions continue to challenge IT administrators. Traditional data backup and recovery
technologies are limited in ability to protect both physical and virtual hybrid environments and struggle to cost
effectively meet the demands of data growth. To reduce RPO, RTO and SLA’s demanded by today’s business
environments, IT administrators are looking to next-generation data protection technologies to reduce costs and
management complexity while meeting user demands for performance and availability.

The Dell DL4000 is a 1U turnkey backup and recovery appliance powered by award-winning AppAssure backup and
recovery software. The DL4000 protects both physical and virtual servers, nearly eliminates backup windows,
recovers applications within minutes, and guarantees recoverability.

In addition to backup and recovery, the DL4000 offers disaster recovery and enterprise capabilities such as remote
replication, encryption, compression, deduplication and support for up to 4 standby virtual machines to be used for
near instantaneous server recovery. The DL4000 appliance is built and designed to be deployed within minutes and is
easy to manage.
