Data Domain System Specifications

1. Mix of typical enterprise backup data (filesystems, databases, e-mail, developer files). the low end of capacity range represents a full backup weekly or monthly, incremental backup daily or weekly, to system capacity. the top end of the range represents full backup daily, to system capacity.

2. all capacity values are calculated using Base10 (i.e., 1tB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes) and the maximum raw capacity configuration.3. includes support for add-on shelves, available separately.4. Maximum throughput achieved using vtL interface and 4 Gbps Fibre Channel.5. Maximum throughput achieved using Symantec openStorage and 10 Gb Ethernet.6. Maximum throughput achieved using vtL interface and 8 Gbps Fibre Channel.7. Maximum throughput achieved using CiFS and 10 Gb Ethernet.

Avamar Feature Avamar Benefit

Global, source deduplication Backup data reduced at source (client) and globally; reduces daily full backup times by up to 10x, network bandwidth for backup by up to 500x, and cumulative backup disk storage by up to 50x

Secure, efficient use of existing LAN/WAN links

RAIN architecture for fault tolerance across Avamar nodes; no single point of failure

Server health and data recoverability Avamar server integrity and backup data recoverability verified daily

Fast, single-step recovery Recovers data (whole backups, files, or directories) immediately; no need to restore last good full and incremental backups

Export deduplicated data to tape Lowers the cost of tape storage while providing a searchable, easy-to-manage interface

VMware infrastructure backups Fast, efficient, daily full backups for VM guests and images

Physical and virtual Avamar deployment options

Best-in-class solutions to meet specific needs; same easy-to-manage interface
