Introducing NetVault SmartDisk

NetVault SmartDisk: at a glance

NetVault SmartDisk’s disk-based backup and data-deduplication option reduces storage costs with its powerful byte-level, variable-block-based software deduplication, which packs up to 12 times more protected data into the same storage area for a 92 percent reduction in storage footprint. Hardware costs are reduced by using existing storage infrastructure instead of requiring specific drives or appliances. Integration with other Quest Data Protection products, such as NetVault® Backup and vRanger®, speeds deployment while simplified ease-of-use reduces the level of storage expertise required to perform deduplicated disk-based backups.

To shrink backup windows with no additional affect on protected-server resources, you can schedule NetVault SmartDisk’s post-process deduplication option outside the backup window.

With NetVault SmartDisk, you have more choices, including the ability to deploy multiple NetVault SmartDisk Instances to improve load balancing and performance; copy or move data between NetVault SmartDisk Instances, to VTL, or to tape-based devices to place redundant backups in offsite locations for failover and disaster-recovery purposes.

Key benefits

Reduces storage costs: NetVault SmartDisk reduces storage costs with its byte-level, variable-block-based deduplication option. This option packs up to 12 times more protected data into the same storage area. It accomplishes this optimization by analyzing smaller amounts of data, thus avoiding the problem that occurs when fixed blocks mask changes and store duplicate data as unique.
Shrinks backup windows: To shrink backup windows with no additional affect on protected-server resources, you can schedule NetVault SmartDisk’s post-process deduplication option outside the backup window.
Maximizes flexibility: You can deploy multiple NetVault SmartDisk Instances to distribute network, disk, and deduplication resources, which improves load balancing and performance. Shared-storage support lets you share disk-based backup storage across heterogeneous platforms, which provides a single data-protection solution.
Speeds restores: NetVault SmartDisk improves restore times because the data is coming from random-access storage without having to find and mount tapes, and then search for the correct tape position. Most restore requests come in the first 14 to 30 days after backup. With disk-based backup, you can minimize downtime with shorter Recovery Time Objectives, and you can focus on other critical tasks.
