5 Introduction The future of data backup/restore and archive is OBJECT STORAGE lowest cost per TB with lowest TCO over three years; traditional block storage on dedup disk is expensive linearly scales to multiple petabytes >90% of all data in existence today was generated in the last two years >80% of new data generated is unstructured traditional block storage on dedup disk cannot scale cost-effectively IBM COS with erasure coding (or information dispersal algorithm IDA) and geo-dispersal of data offers enterprise customers massively enhanced security and protection against data theft and breaches IBM COS with Storage Director (SD) is faster than any on-premise dedup disk backup solution like Data Domain, and any public cloud solution like AWS, Azure and Google 5

7 What is Storage Director Storage Director is a software defined, policy-based and tiered backup virtualization solution that enables data from any host, OS or backup application, to be backed up to any storage device, medium or technology, including IBM s Cloud Object Storage (Cleversafe) platform, or any S3 compatible cloud. Storage Director is a fully virtualized target for any backup application such as Spectrum Protect, NetBackup, Commvault, Veeam, etc. and enables policy-based data pools to be created and backed up to multiple targets and replicated for remote storage and DR Storage Director is unique in being able to present a single target / solution for backing up ALL open environments, such as Linux, Windows, UNIX, etc. as well as proprietary host platforms, such as IBM Mainframe (z/os), iseries, HP NonStop/Tandem, HP Open VMS etc. on a single node Storage Director has an optimized backend interface to IBM COS to backup and restore data using large block sizes as well as DRestore rapid restore function for disaster recovery Storage Director is a patented, software defined storage solution that virtualizes and consolidates data backup through a scalable, policy-based and tiered architecture 7

9 Basic Architecture Backup Servers SAN Backup Servers The Front-End presents virtual devices native to the backup management application (BMA) being used in each open environment. This also includes BRMS on iseries and DFSMS and CA on Mainframe z/os The Back-End provides a media manager to Interface to a wide variety of target devices and media. These include IBM COS (with an optimized interface with large block size), any S3 compatible cloud target, SAN/NAS devices, dedup disk and tape libraries Front End Cache Traditional Back End Connection to Tape IBM Cloud Object Storage, IBM Tape, NAS File Shares, Dedup disk Cache (disk or solid state flash) InfiniCache proprietary, copyrighted Cache striping technology provides industryleading performance and a staging area for data prior to sending it to archival media 9

10 Data Staging to/from Physical Back-end Devices Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Backup Data Restore Data Physical Tape Restore Data Restores comes back directly from the physical device not restored thru SD cache! Data will stay here if it is virtual only (SD Cache) Data will pass to this stage if it is a Real Backed Virtual (RBV). Reside on virtual and physical devices RBV s will eventually reside on IBM COS or back end device only 10

11 Policy-Based Storage Disk or flash cache only Real Backed Virtual (Virtual to Physical) Pinned Bypass Mode (Managing Legacy Devices) Encryption (AES256) Compression (Disk Cache only or Disk Cache to Physical) NAS Device Replication (DR) Each of these policies, or combinations thereof, plus the physical storage type, could define a storage pool for the application Application Virtual Pools Vols Vols Vols Vols Cache Cache Cache Cache Vols Cache Vols Cache Final Destination Tape SAN/NAS Remote Vault DeDuplication Cloud 11

12 Key Features Fully virtualized and automated backup and restore operations lights-out operation allowing remote administration separation of front end from back end processing industry leading performance from InfiniCache proprietary cache striping technology on disk of flash eliminates backup window problems Specifically designed for heterogeneous multi-platform environments platforms include Windows, Linux, UNIX (AIX, HPUX, Solaris), IBM Mainframe (z/os), iseries (AS/400), HP NonStop (Tandem), OpenVMS, VMware and more supports all major backup management applications such as Spectrum Protect/TSM, NetBackup, Veeam, Commvault Simpana, BRMS (iseries), DFSMS and CA (Mainframe z/os) and ABS/MDMS (OpenVMS) and others Industry leading GUI used for system configuration, administration and daily operations User defined policies allow flexible data storage and migration strategies Expandable and scalable for capacity and performance Business resilience through remote backup, replication, disaster recovery and Multi- Node Architectures 12

15 Ideal Targets for Storage Director + ICOS Current IT Environment Does the customer have a multi-platform, multi- OS IT environment? Does the customer have any proprietary platforms and wishes to share backup infrastructure with his open environment? Does the customer have a large data backup and/or replication requirement? Does the customer have long-term archival needs for data for regulatory or other reasons? Is the customer transporting tapes from one location to another? Is the customer looking to reduce or eliminate tape from his current environment? Is the customer interested in moving data to private, public or hybrid cloud? Is the customer interested in the lower cost and higher scalability of object storage? Current Backup Solutions Does the customer have expensive de-dup VTL or disk solutions such as EMC Data Domain, HP StoreOnce, or Quantum DXi? Does the customer have direct-attached tape (as in an iseries environment)? Does the customer have a large footprint backup application server such as NetBackup or Commvault? 15

16 Storage Director + ICOS Unique Strengths vs EMC Data Domain Ability to separate data into pools and apply different protection policies such as retention, replication, movement to lower cost media such as IBM COS, tape, NAS or public cloud for archival Offer customers the fastest performing backup solution per node in the market and therefore shrink backup windows and lower cost Eliminate slow restores due to need for rehydration of dedup data upon restores Eliminate performance degradation as disk fills up; SD + ICOS would not see performance degradation until disk capacity exceeds 96 percent Eliminate time spent on garbage cleaning; this could be 1-3 hours a day in a Data Domain Achieving data reduction of both data at rest and in flight without the inherent negatives of dedup (poor backup and restore performance, no capability to tier, cost of proprietary disk etc.) Ability to work with backup applications (such as Spectrum Protect, Commvault, Netbackup, Veeam etc.) to design policies utilizing incremental or change data backup only with periodic full backups for maximum efficiency Offering customers a cost effective, highly flexible, scalable, policy based backup solution utilizing object storage technology that can be customized to fit their environment as opposed to one medium (dedup disk) fits all philosophy of EMC Data Domain. For any given customer environment, Storage Director + ICOS can be configured to offer the optimal continuous availability backup, replication and DR solution which results in the lowest cost, highest performance and reliability backup solution for that customer. The built-in method Storage Director uses for data reduction is hardware enabled LZ compression with redundant secondary software based compression and AES 256 bit encryption coupled with WAN optimization and latency management for replication. Additionally, ICOS uses erasure coding and object storage for enhanced security and massive scalability. 16

18 Storage Director + IBM COS Tributary Storage Director Redefines availability, security and economics of data storage. For data backup and archive environments with Data Domain presently, a performance front-end ingestion and caching solution called Storage Director can be configured Storage Director (SD) has rapid ingestion capabilities with caching SD will present a native target to Spectrum Protect SD will ingest data from Spectrum Protect, Commvault, Netbackup or Veeam at up to 10.4 GB per second (or 37.4TB an hour) and restore at speeds up to 9.6GB per second (or 34.6 TB per hour) per node Backup data will then be streamed to IBM cloud Object Storage post process for archive 18
