5 ways backup has changed for the better
TRANSCRIPT
5 W A Y SBACKUP HAS CHANGED FOR THE BETTER
TRADITIONAL BACKUP IS DEAD…Well actually it’s not completely dead. But it should be. New computing paradigms including Big Data,
digital transformation, hyper-convergence, mobility and the proliferation of cloud have changed today’s
data protection requirements, making traditional backup close to obsolete.
But that’s not to say it’s no longer relevant. Quite the contrary. Consider these five ways backup
has changed, for the better.
O N EIT’S AGNOSTICToday’s backup strategies know that the
protection of workloads across data
centers, geographies and in the cloud
must be achievable regardless of
platform, storage hardware,
location or hypervisor. It no
longer matters where data
lives, it can and should be
protected.
T W OIT’S AUTOMATEDNew support for automation, orchestration
and policy-based management means that
today’s backup processes improve IT
productivity by simplifying operations and
making them more reliable. This automation
also eliminates complexity and saves on
operational costs.
T H R E EIT’S AWAREToday’s backup is deeply aware of the platforms, applications and databases it supports. This built-in
awareness not only improves performance and functionality, but enables more granular protection and
recovery without additional manual steps.
F O U RIT’S INTELLIGENTUnlike its aging predecessors, an evolved
backup solution employs intelligence to
enable advanced capabilities. That intelligence
will perform valued operations such as
eliminating duplicate data, provisioning new
storage, or performing script-free snapshot
management to lower cost and avoid storage
capacity waste.
F I V EIT’S INTEGRATEDOne of the most valued ways backup
has changed is that enables the use of a
central repository and single index to
increase data visibility, improve compliance
and simplify management operations. Even
more, today’s backup can eliminate siloed
data protection approaches that increase
risk all while reducing capital expenditures
and improving data insight.
