EMC Disk Library DL4000 Series#101 EMC Disk Library: The Easiest Way to Improve Backup and Restore Up to 83% Better Performance
Traditional Backup and Tape-library Challenges • Performance of backup and restore • Not meeting backup windows • Cannot provide adequate restore service levels • Reliability and availability of tape media • Libraries, drives, and cartridges fail • Tape does not support RAID protection • Management complexity • Constant tuning of environment • Risk associated with media management • Lost tapes • Time to find media for restore • Cost of transporting tapes • “75% of storage management is backup and recovery, yet 30% of all data recovery instances fail…” • Forrester Research, 2003 2
Benefits of Virtual Tape Libraries • High performance • Disk based restores up to five times faster than physical tape • Availability • RAID-protected storage • Management efficiency • Less time spent tuning system • Simple to deploy • Does not require backup application to be upgraded • Requires no change to operational processes • Data retention • Data on disk can be remotely copied; no reliance on shipping • Offers compression for lower costs 3
