Agenda 

• The circle of pain 

• Reason why customer chosen disk based backup 

• What’s the new approach for data protection? 

• Is deduplication a walk in the park? 

• Is dedup always dedup? 

• Why you should consider dedup 

• EMC’s EMC s portfolio in backup deduplication

The circle of pain 

Offsite copy 

• Preparation Lock Boxes 

• Retrieve/ organize reports 

Monitoring 

• Success/ Failures 

• Long running jobs 

• Media errors 

• Issue field service calls 


Troubleshooting 

• 80% media errors related 

• 10% network interrupts 

• 10% plugin p g and others 

Change Control 

Media Growth 

• Tickets for media purchases 

• Tickets for network changes 

• Tickets for client timeouts 

• Expand disk pools 

• NNew ttape media di 

• Robot / Drive upgrades 

• Hardware Migrations 

Restores 

• > 20% fails 

• Always y unplanned p 

• Resource planning 

4

Reason why customer 

more often chose disk based backup 

• Massive data growth g 

• Scalability of traditional solutions are limited 

• Virtualization changes the game 

– Shared infrastructure brings new challenges 

– Features like VADP (Image Level Backup for vSphere) 

– … 

• Higher requirements at data integrity 

• Footprint Footprint and Energy constrains 


5


Whats the new approach 

for data protection? 

6

It depends on the point of view view… 

Virtualisation 

“All All is virtualized virtualized, 

so let‘s go for 

VADP!” 


Storage Admin 

Admin 

“Snaps are 

good enough! 

Why backup?” 

↓ Cost 

↓ Risk 

↓ Leverage 

DBA 

“RMA can do it as 

well, and I have it 

under controll at 

any time” 

Backup Admin. 

“With With LTO5 we are 

unbeatable! Let‘s 

buy more tapes”

Is deduplication 

a walk in the park? 

8

Some point to consider consider… 

• Where makes it most sense? Can I chose? 

– Source/ Client? 

– Backup p Server? 

– Backup Device? 

• Integrity! RAID is not enough! 

• 200TB Backup File Systems: interesting rebuild.. 

• Replication is the off site copy. Timing matters!

Is dedup always dedup?

A happy day with Diskbased Deduplication! 

Offsite copy 

• No tapes 

• Centralized Management 

• No risk in transportation 

Monitoring 

• No tape errors 

• End to end phone home support 

• Performance results faster backups 


Troubleshooting 

• 80% media error relieved -> no tape 

• 10% network Interrupts relieved -> deduplication 

• 10% -> OK, we‘ll we ll take this... 

Change Control 

Media Growth 

• Single pool of storage 

• 90% ddata t reduction d ti 

• No ongoing capacity mang. 

Restores 

• Less changes = less risk = higher SLA‘s 

• > 99% success rate 

• YES, spend more on on this!
