Understanding RDA with OST

Understanding RDA with OST

OpenStorage Technology (OST) provides the logical disk interface that can be used with network storage devices, and the DR Series system appliance requires RDA with OST plug-in software to integrate its data storage operations with supported data management applications (DMAs). For details on the applications supported, see the Dell DR Series System Interoperability Guide.

The DR Series system integrates with supported DMAs using the RDA with OST plug-in, through which DMAs can control when backup images are created, duplicated, and deleted. Via the plug-in, the DMAs can take full advantage of key DR Series system features like replication and data deduplication.

The DR Series system accesses the OpenStorage API code through the RDA with OST plug-in, which can be installed on the supported media server platform type that you choose (Windows or Linux). When RDA with OST is used with the DR Series system, it offers the following benefits:

RDA with OST protocol provides faster and improved data transfers:
