HP StorageWorks D2D Backup Systems

Struggling with complex, distributed, and costly data protection? You need an affordable disk-based system that automatically consolidates multiple servers into a single backup process. The HP StorageWorks D2D Backup Systems provide price leading disk-based data protection for small or medium-sized data centers and remote offices. Automate and consolidate the backup of multiple servers onto a single, rack-mountable device while improving reliability by reducing errors caused by media handling.

All HP D2D Backup Systems feature HP Dynamic deduplication, for efficient, longer term data retention on disk and enabling network efficient replication for a cost-effective way of transmitting data off-site for disaster recovery purposes. The D2D systems integrate seamlessly into your current IT environment and offer you the flexibility of both virtual tape library and NAS (CIFS only) targets.

Features and Benefits

• The HP StorageWorks D2D Backup Systems offer immediate access to backups for rapid restores.

• The D2D Backup Systems offer high performance multi-streaming with backup speeds of up to 720 GB/hour to a disk-based system instead of sequentially to a tape drive or tape autoloader, demonstrating that you can substantially reduce your backup window .

• Proven RAID 5 and RAID 6 technology reduces the risk of data loss due to disk failure.

• D2D Backup Systems can be directly attached to standalone tape drives, tape autoloaders and tape libraries to provide a complete disk-to-disk-to-tape (D2D2T) data protection solution through periodic offload to tape. Offload to physical tape is supported using virtual tape library targets only.

• At a price point less than the cost of comparable products with deduplication and replication, the HP D2D Backup Systems deliver more affordable data protection.

• The HP Dynamic deduplication feature reduces the disk space required to store backup data sets by typically 20x without impacting backup performance. Retaining more backup data on disk for longer, enables greater data accessibility for rapid restore of lost or corrupt files and reduces downtime.

• The HP D2D Backup Systems with HP Dynamic deduplication reduce the network bandwidth needed for remote data replication. With more cost-effective replication, these systems allow automated, centralized backup of remote sites, and deliver a practical disaster recovery solution for data centers.

• The D2D4112 allows you to scale up from 9TB to 18TB of useable capacity as your data storage requirements grow, by using a simple and cost effective capacity upgrade for a lower cost alternative to purchasing additional systems.

• HP D2D Backup Systems are 1U or 2U rack-mountable backup appliances that are supported by all leading backup applications. Provides choice of network interface, iSCSI or Fibre Channel and backup target, virtual tape library (VTL) and NAS (CIFS only), seamlessly integrating into most IT environments.

• HP StorageWorks D2D Backup Systems automate your backup processes allowing you to reduce the time spent managing your data protection. Implementing unattended daily backup is especially valuable for environments with limited IT resources such as remote or branch offices.

• D2D Backup Systems can back up multiple servers via a standard Ethernet or Fibre Channel network simultaneously to a disk-based solution at speeds of up to 720GB per hour instead of sequentially to a tape drive or autoloader, meaning that you can substantially reduce your backup window.

• D2D Backup Systems have an intuitive web-based browser interface allowing you to monitor your D2D Backup System, locally or remotely, to view results or change settings. This self-managing device also reduces your routine maintenance.

• D2D Backup Systems are self-managing backup appliances that require little, if any, routine maintenance. Unlike other disk-based storage devices, the D2D Backup System does not require virus protection, defragmentation, or LUN provisioning.
