What is your backup and recovery experience?


Disaster Recovery Vs. Backup Recovery


What is a backup recovery system?

• Protects your data in case of theft (a single laptop to office break-ins)

• Employee accidents (deletion of an important file)

• Technical issues (crashed hard drive)


How does your recovery time differ during a hurricane versus a fire?


Can your business afford it?

AvamarDeduplication backup software and system

• End-to-end software and hardware solution

• Improves backup window with less network load

– Client-side deduplication

• Integrated high availability and reliability

• Flexible deployment options– Stand-alone– Integrated with EMC Data Domain and EMC

NetWorker• Full backups every time and one-step recovery

• Higher backup success rate and reliability• Increased ROI, lower TCO, less risk

AvamarVM


Avamar Backup and DeduplicationUnlike anything else in the industry

Reduce:• Data moved by 95%

• Network interface card usage at the client by 95%

• Backup windows by 90%

• Client CPU usage by 80%

• Disk access at the client by 50%

• Memory usage at the client by 50%


Maximize efficiency, drive-down costs for business continuity and disaster recovery

Real-World ResultsAvamar daily full backups versus traditional daily full backupsData Type

Amount of Primary Data Backed Up

Amount of Data Moved Daily

Windows file systems 3,573 GB 6.1 GB

Mix of Windows, Linux, and UNIX file systems 5,097 GB 11.7 GB

Engineering files on NAS (NDMP backups) 3,265 GB 24.2 GB

Mix of 20% databases, 80% file systems (Windows and UNIX)

Mix of Linux file systems and databases 7,831 GB 104.2 GBSource: EMC

While results will vary by data type and mix, Avamar can

dramatically improve backup performance and efficiency

Every backup is a “full” backup; restore single files or full directories directly to

the client
