Why combine disk and tape for data protection and archive?


The Best of Disk and Tape

No single disk or tape solution can provide best practice data protection

Disk and tape have different yet complementary roles to play

Best Practice = comprehensive, tiered and converged data protection architecture that balances cost and performance.


When to use Disk and Tape

• Storing a secondary copy of data • Storing both primary and secondary copies

• Delivering rapid recovery from loss • Streaming backup of rich media

• Ability to improve system availability • Long-term storage: months - years - years

• Short-term storage: weeks – months • Retrieval of large files, and retrieval for

compliance and monetization

Disk is ideal for… Tape is ideal for…

• Compliance based storage • Fast file access

• Remote Office / Branch Office Solutions

• Environments requiring set and forget data

protection

But is not so good for… But is not so good for…

Option 2

Option 1

Media server Media server Application servers


Option 1 - Backup Application Copy

Option 2 - Separate Physical Tape Backup

Option 3 – StoreOnce Tape Copy (NOT CURRENTLY AN OPTION)

Method Backup application* copies cartridges or NAS file shares from StoreOnce to network attached StoreEver tape library

Backup application* creates separate StoreEver tape backup in parallel to HP StoreOnce backup

StoreOnce copies cartridges or NAS file shares to network attached StoreEver tape library

Pros Easiest Integration Optimum Performance Additional media server not required Simpler architecture

Cons Potential performance impact when data is “rehydrated”

Requires management of two separate backup processes

Potential performance impact when data is rehydrated Backup application unaware of tape copy

Migrating data from StoreOnce to StoreEver Tape
