Fastest backup performance for the shortest backup window by writing directly to a disk landing zone, avoiding compute- intensive inline data deduplication
Backup windows kept permanently short as data grows by adding full servers (with processor, memory, disk, and bandwidth) in a single scale-out system
Fastest Restores and VM Boots for Instant Recovery
Fastest restore and tape copy performance from the most recent backup kept in its whole form. No reassembly from small blocks and large hash tables is required.
Fast VM boots for instant recoveries from a high-speed landing zone, which maintains a non-deduplicated copy of the most recent backup. This approach avoids the time-consuming data rehydration required when using solutions that only store deduplicated data.
Most Cost-Effective Solution with No “Forklift” Upgrades
Scalable next-generation architecture with full appliances provides plug-and-play expansion. To add an ExaGrid appliance, you simply plug it in and let ExaGrid’s scale-out software virtualize the backup capacity pool.
Multiple appliances allow full backups per appliance of 3TB, 5TB, 7TB, 10TB, 13TB, 21TB, 32TB, 40TB, and 63TB. Appliances can be mixed and matched with up to 32 appliances in a single scale-out system, allowing you to pay as you grow. Newer appliances can be added to older appliances in the same system to eliminate product obsolescence. With thirty-two 63TB appliances, a single system can support 4PB of usable storage and can ingest a 2PB full backup.
50% lower total system cost up front vs competing systems. Over time, the total system cost is also 50% lower because the costly “forklift” upgrades associated with a first-generation front-end controller/disk shelf architecture are eliminated.
