Protect Multiple Locations, Business Units, Remote Offices
Traditional approaches to backup are not designed to protect data in remote office locations. Companies with remote offices are tasked with protecting data without IT resources at the remote location, while managing bandwidth costs and meeting shrinking backup windows.
Networking alone typically accounts for 30 percent or more of the total IT expenditures of an enterprise. For some companies, the recurring cost of WAN bandwidth is a show stopper in protecting data at remote sites – some choose not to implement a remote backup and recovery solution because of it.
PI Recovery Cloud Backup & Recovery architecture is WAN-Optimized and built around copying data from remote locations to a centralized data repository by leveraging a Public and/or Private Cloud.
PI Recovery Cloud Backup is designed to protect remote office locations.
- Disk-based, block-level incremental client-side deduplication reduces backup bandwidth requirements
- Agentless architecture means no application-specific clients, easing deployment of a backup and recovery software.
The Benefits of a PI Recovery Cloud Backup & Recovery
For the Manager:
- Reduces Cost (buy less software, hardware, maintenance
- Reduces Risk (data encryption, protects all desktops, laptops, remote sites, datacenters)
- Improves Operations (reduce backup windows, higher success rates, detects and fixes errors)
- Achieves Flexibility (physical and virtual machines, multiple platforms, scalable to PB’s)
- Regulation Compliance (e.g. HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, HITECH, more)
For the Technician:
- Agentless (no agents to manage, backup as many servers / PCs as you want)
- Data De-duplication (at file and block level)
- Continuous Data Protection (CDP)
- Data compression (LZOP or ZLIB)
- Encryption (in-flight and at-rest (up to AES-256)
- FIPS 140-2 Certification for Backup
- Multi-platform support (Windows, Mac OS X, SUSE/Red Hat Linux)
- Virtual machine and VMware GSX/ESX/ESX 3i backup support
- Hot database backup support – MS SQL, MS Exchange, Oracle, MySQL, DB2 etc.
