NETAPP SYNCSORT

INTEGRATED BACKUP

Technical Overview

Peter Eicher

Current State of Data Protection

!  Four architectural areas cause pain points, poor

performance and excessive costs

–  Data is read/moved more times than needed

–  Point products add complexity and cost

–  Backup data is stored inefficiently

–  DR is complex and resource intensive Physical & VM

NSB Data Protection

!  Read and move data only once

–  Backups complete in minutes

–  CPU impact ~ 1-2%

!  Ideal for virtual environments

!  Integrates with critical applications

Block Level Data Protection

!  Move only changed blocks

–  95% data reduction

–  Backup in minutes

!  Change journal eliminates

file system scanning and hashing

–  95% less CPU, disk and

network I/O impact !  Ideal for VM protection !  Utilizes VMware CBT for

Agentless backup

= file changes, traditional backup = block changes, NSB backup

A Better Backup Architecture

!  Protects all data types with a single solution !  Eliminates device/media server layer

Application Integration

!  Support for key applications

–  Exchange, SQL, SharePoint

!  Ensures data integrity

–  Backup verification built-in

!  Cluster aware

–  “Virtual Node” simplifies

administration

–  Saves time and improves

reliability _{Clustered servers managed}

as a single “Virtual Node”

Advanced SharePoint Protection

!  Simplifies a complex

data protection challenge

!  All critical SharePoint

items grouped under a single “Virtual Node”

!  Recover from farm to

individual item level

NSB Data Protection

!  Backup images stored as usable snapshots

–  Instant recovery of data: two clicks

–  Data access for multiple users with no overhead

!  NetApp deduplication and compression

Block Changes Stored as Snapshots

!  Each block incremental creates a snapshot

–

Uses 90% less storage

deduplication

–

Snapshots enable instant recovery
