What is a Backup Appliance?
The
STORServer Backup Appliance is the smartest way to solve your
businesses backup, archive and disaster recovery requirements.
STORServer provides the easiest to use, lowest maintenance,
and most cost-effective recovery product on the market.
STORServer models come network, NAS and SAN ready, installed
in 15 minutes. You will have all hardware and software you
need for even the most complex backup, archive and disaster
recovery environments. Your daily operations time will be
reduced to only minutes, with no backup babysitting required.
With all your data online for easy and fast restores, both
users and system administrators can request restores without
operator intervention.
The All-in-One Backup Solution
The STORServer backup appliance integrates all the components
you need for a solution: a backup server, the tape library
or disk array for your data, the software that drives your
solution, and the integration of the entire mix of components.
You don't have to meet with tape, software, disk or server
vendors and build a hundred different scenarios. Pick the
backup appliance that fits your requirements, and you're running
backups and restores the same day your appliance arrives.
The
STORServer includes the industry-leading backup, archive and
DR software, Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM). With the STORServer
Backup Appliance dashboard, STORServer Manager, and all the
hardware configured into one supported and warranted appliance,
you're finally in business with a system that accomplishes
your recovery requirements:
- Backup - on-line copy of all data you want to restore,
based upon data retention policies that you set.
- Archive - point-in-time capture copies, kept on-site (and
most often, online) of any data you are required to save
for periods of time beyond your defined backup data retention
requirements.
- Disaster Recovery - off-site copies of both your backups
and archives, complete with a daily updated Disaster Recovery
Plan.
A Solution for Every Environment
The STORServer Backup Appliance is LAN friendly, allowing
you to backup terabytes of changes over your full enterprise
of data, whether on laptops, SANs, remote sites, datacenter
servers, or database volumes.
With six series of models available, you'll have your pick
of hardware from the top manufacturers. Each series has several
models from which to choose, ensuring that your STORServer
will be sized to suit both your current and future recovery
needs. Models are also scaleable, and upgrade up to four or
five times their entry level configuration.
