Why Protection Storage?

Scalability

Enable scale
without cost and
complexity
Inline deduplication
minimizes storage
footprint by 1030x

Data Integrity

Data Domain Data

Invulnerability
Architecture ensures
data is recoverable
and accessible

Consolidation

Consolidate backup,
archive, and disaster
recovery on a single
system
Protect a wide variety of
data sources

The more processes, the more resource

contention

Copy to tape: Too slow to stream tape

Recovery: Service level agreement predictability
Replication: Poor time-to-disaster-recovery
Deduplication: If interleaved with backup or
restore

More administration to fight these issues
