DR4100 Technical Overview


DR4100 Building Blocks

• Front end protocol layer • Dedupe/compression engine • Ingest buffers • Disk storage structures • Dictionary


Dictionary

The dictionary is a dynamic list of all the unique patterns and forms the basis for deduplication


Disk storage structures


Software Continuous data verification* • Existing data is read back periodically • Checksums are compared to verify data integrity

NVRAM • Ensures data is protected in case of power loss

Surface Scans* • These are triggered in the event of hardware faults to report and/or correct

data inconsistencies RAID6 • All data on the DR4000 is protected by RAID6 with a hot spare. This RAID level

protects data against as many as two simultaneous drive failures.

Hardware

Data Integrity Features

* Note: Continuous data verification and surface scans are performed in the background so as to not disrupt core backup and deduplication activities


Advanced Replication Features

• Flexible configuration

• Policy based replication

• Full Synchronization

• Log-based replication

• Resync capabilities

• Link aggregation

• Snapshot-leveraged replication

• Bandwidth Throttling


Appliance Management

• Will require capacity license


DR4100 in the Backup portfolio


Where does the DR4100 fall in the Backup portfolio?

Backup Software Purpose Built Backup Appliances

Backup software and internal storage in a pre-packaged appliance E.g. DL2300, DL4000

• AppAssure: Application protection for Windows and Linux

• vRanger: VMWare backups • NetVault: Enterprise backup solution for

heterogeneous environments • SonicWall: Server and desktop backups • Simpana: High end Enterprise backup solution • Symantec Backup Exec • Symantec NetBackup • EMC Networker • Veeam Backup • IBM TSM • CA Arcserve • Oracle RMAN

Integrated Backup Appliances

Disk backup target with built in deduplication and compression. Backup software agnostic; non disruptive deployment E.g. DR4100
