  4. Difference between Backup & Archive • Backups are created to recover from errors • Cost effective data protection • Off-site storage • Backup is important – Restore is Critical • Archiving for Information Lifecycle Management • Storing data on different media based on policy • “Right Data, Right Place, Right Price”

  5. Data Protection Techniques • Disk Mirroring / Replication • Disk to Disk Backup • Disk to Disk to Tape Backup • Virtual Tape Libraries • Continuous Data Protection • Disk to Tape

  10. Traditional Tape Based Backup • Primary storage to archival storage • Direct relationship with tape devices • Additional device sharing software Tape automation Backup servers Application servers Data moves directly from primary storage to tape and is managed by the backup application

  11. Disk to Disk Backup • Add secondary disk storage • Part of existing disk subsystem or as an external appliance Tape automation Backup servers Application servers Data protection appliance • Snapshot/mirrors • Continuous data protection (CDP) Disk based snapshot/mirroring Data moves from primary storage to temporary disk buffer. Backups usually take place from the temporary location to tape.

  12. Disk to Disk to Tape Backup • Add disk to existing backup servers • No additional hardware or software Tape automation Backup servers Application servers Data moves from primary storage to the temporary disk buffer and then on to tape. Data movement is managed by the backup application. Recoveries will normally come from the disk buffer(s).

  13. Disk to Disk with Virtual Tape • Add virtual tape services with a storage appliance Tape automation Backup servers Application servers VTL virtual tape library Data moves from primary storage to the VTL disk buffer under control of the backup application. Recoveries normally take place from the VTL buffer. If a real tape cartridge is required then the backup application is responsible for creating it.

  25. It doesn’t help if this component is fast when the rest are slow. Let’s see the difference for archive! • Components of recall time • Mount tape (by robot)‏ • Load tape • Find block • Transfer data • Rewind • Unload • Dismount tape (by robot)‏

  26. Choose the Right Tape Technology • Capacity • Important for backup • Very important for most archive requirements • Not so important for HSM functionality • Throughput • Important for backup and archive • Backup must write several stripes because of the speed • Loadtime • Important for HSM functionality • Reliabilty

  28. SL8500 • SL8500 has been adopted at more than twice the rate ofother new StorageTeklarge libraries • Broad acceptance in financial,governmentand broadcastingsegments • 39%shipped are to customers who have never purchased Sun/StorageTek enterprise libraries before

  29. StreamLine SL8500 architecture • SL8500 can be share across heterogeneous applications and servers • ACSLS software support • Allow multiple tape drives and media types • SL8500 designed for consolidation • 24x7 design • Multiple and simultaneous mounts/dismounts • Scalability in capacity and tape drives: from 1448 to 70.000 slots cartridges, from 1 to 448 tape drives • Multiple media types • High density • High performance

  35. The Judges Reach Their Decision -Sun StorageTek L1400M Product of the Year • As one of our judges put it, it may be "somewhat contrarian" to give the gold to a tape library in 2006, but Sun Microsystems Inc.'s L1400M solves a top problem in tape: • The ability to use four different tape formats within a single library • “It's a solution that's been a long time coming.”

  44. Free Space Active Data (Frequently-Used Files) Pointers to Inactive Data on Secondary Media ‘Infinite Disk’ Technology SAM-FS creates a virtualized or “infinite disk” that extends primary or secondary storage onto any number of additional media and devices. Virtualization optimizes storage capacity – automatically migrating inactive data to near-line secondary media – while also giving users immediate access to ALL of their data, regardless of where it is stored.

  45. Documents Data copied to media by policy Spreadsheets Presentations Images Printstreams Automatically populate all desired tiers of storage Databases Video/Audio Messaging SAM-FS Function: Archive Populate all tiers of storage based on data policy File Servers Users On-line Secondary Storage Documents Spreadsheets Presentations Images Printstreams Databases Video/Audio Messaging LAN/SAN Clients Generate up to 4 copies concurrently Data written in TAR format Optimized writes based on file size Shell command for immediate response Off-Site Storage

  46. SAM-FS Function: RELEASE Automate primary disk space management File Servers Users On-line Secondary Storage Documents Documents Data copied to media by policy Spreadsheets Spreadsheets Presentations Presentations Images Images Printstreams Printstreams Databases Automatically populate all desired tiers of storage Databases Video/Audio Video/Audio Messaging Messaging LAN/SAN Clients Release only after valid copy exists Release directly after archiving Release at Watermarks Never Release – data stays on disk Shell command for immediate response Off-Site Storage
