IT Storage Challenges Have Not SlowedIncreasing Demand for Storage Capacity

Decade - Are You Ready? Doc.# IDC_925, May 2010

Current IT Storage Challenges

Uncontrollable data growth

On average companies are doubling their data every two

years

Approximately 20% is structured data and typically

“Business Critical” – database backups

Approximately 80% is unstructured data – file systems

backup

Budget restrictions

Whether decreasing, flat, or increasing budgets are not

keeping pace

Energy, cooling, and space issues within the data center

6

Current IT Storage Challenges

Rigorous Service Level Agreements (SLAs) − Data

growth, economic pressures, and competitiveness in

the global market are causing:

Crushing backup windows

Driving shorter Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and

aggressive Recovery Point Objectives (RPO)

24x7x365 access to data

Greater regulation

Legal, compliance, and regulatory issues are forcing

“keep it forever” retention timeframes

7

Why is Data Protection So Important?Top Data Protection Issues for Companies of All Sizes

• Safeguard corporate information

• Maintain efficient business operations

• Conformance with SLAs and regulations

• Recovery time and recovery point focused

• Drive out costs - efficiency

• Shrink the backup window

• Simplified, automated management

Data Deduplication Changing BackupData Deduplication Benefits

SMALL FOOTPRINT DATA CENTRALIZATION OFF-SITE REPLICATION

• Optimized capacity

• Store more data for a longer period of time

• Reduced management

• Reduced bandwidth requirements

• Centralized data protection and management

• Mitigate security risk of lost media

• Improved Recovery Point Objective (RPO)

Backup Software Deduplication Benefits

Reduce Costs

Leverage current backup

software

“Inexpensive” and high

performance Sun servers

Shrink backup window by up

to 90% (client dedupe)

Flexibility

Deduplication at the client, backup server, neither, or both

Deduplicate by data type – eliminates “all or nothing” approach

Reduce Risk

No hardware vendor lock-in

Regular disk and tape storage – taking advantage of compression

and encryption

Possible tape deduplication

The Changing Role of Tape in Open Systems Backup

Paraphrasing Mark Twain…

“The reports of Tape’s death have been

greatly exaggerated.”

Tape is the only cost effective, long-term storage

medium

Focus on weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly full backups

Reliability – 15 to 30 year shelf life

Drive and media generational compatibility

Secured encrypted data – Lost tape? Who cares.

Tape Libraries – shared, consolidation resource

21

The Changing Role of Tape in Open Systems Backup

High speed, linear scalable performance

Economical “green” storage – ultimate in data at rest

storage

Data growth make disk too costly and too risky – even

with deduplication

Tape is 100,000 time more reliable then disk (bit error rate of

1014 vs. 1019)

RAID only makes this worse – more components to fail

Tape provides the maximum in

Portability

Capacity

Security
