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…

Summary


HP Data Protection

Daily backup to

HP StoreOnce

Off-site replication* with HP StoreOnce

Active archive to

HP Tape

Long-term archival on

HP Tape

StoreOnce and StoreEver – best practice data protection and archive

*And make an extra copy to tape for offsite DR

Disk backup when:

• Limited local IT resources

• Fast file restore a high priority

• Need multiple recovery points online

• Integrated Deduplication and Replication

Tape backup when:

• Huge volumes of high performance streaming application data

• Local IT resources and/or investment in tape automation

Tape-based DR/Archive when:

• Physical transport to remote location

• Backup/archive data retained for years

Disk based DR when:

• Automated copy to remote location over a LAN/WAN needed
