DESCRIPTION
Backup systems are being asked to do things they were never designed for - and it’s killing them. Join experts from Storage Switzerland and NEC as they discuss the four assumptions that are killing backup storage: * Assuming backup is an archive * Assuming it can grow forever * Assuming it can support production applications * Assuming deduplication won’t impact recovery You’ll come away with strategies that could save your backup system from the changes that threaten to overwhelm it.

Polling Question
What is your biggest problem with disk backup?
Backup has Changed over the Years
Legacy backup software applications sent data to tape
• Slow backup, slower recovery• Limited data reduction• Trucks needed for DR off-site copy
Disk backup enabled innovations
• Fast backup, faster restores• Support for Dedupe, CBT• Multiple on-line DR options• Random access to files
Backup is still Changing
• Explosion of unstructured data, esp digital content
• Need for Long-term retention
• Need for fast, continual file access
Backup IS changing, but......
Backup systems are not
• Backup appliances need to evolve to support new backup data requirements
• Companies are slow to implement these changes
• “If it ain’t broke....”
Backup Systems Can’t Keep up
Assuming current storage systems can accommodate these new changes is killing backup
Assumptions Killing Backup Storage
• Assuming backup storage is an archive
• Assuming backup storage can grow forever
Assumptions Killing Backup Storage
• Assuming backup system can support production applications
• Assuming dedupe can improve recovery
What’s the answer?
How to Fix Backup Storage
• Greater throughput - faster backups while deduplicating - faster recoveries of large files
• Incremental capacity scaling - makes growth easy, affordable
• Support for mixed use cases - supports BU, archive and content repository
How to Fix Backup Storage
• No more RAID - large RAID rebuilds too slow - second copy not feasible for
large data sets
• Better resiliency - HA design
New Designs for Enterprise Backup
Nodes• Industry-standard servers• Multiple types allowed• Heterogeneous & open
• PERFORMANCE SCALABILITY
• CAPACITY SCALABILITY
Unrestricted Scalability Intelligent Management SW
• Fully distributed system • Self-aware & self-organizing• Data management services• Virtualizes hardware platform
