Symantec delivers Better Backup for all Sized Organizations
Symantec Corp. has announced it will deliver a new approach for modernizing backup and recovery, a process that has become unnecessarily complicated and expensive as organizations' data stores grow exponentially. Compared to traditional backup, Symantec's approach enables 100 times faster backup, eases management and simplifies recovery if a disaster occurs, helping customers realize significant cost savings while better protecting their business information. Over the last 20 years data has exploded, virtualization has become widely adopted and service level agreements (SLA's) have become near impossible to meet. These challenges also affect the smaller businesses that struggle with backup complexity and are at risk of data loss due to a disaster. The current approach to modernization introduces an ever-growing collection of point solutions resulting in added complexity, increased costs and headaches for backup administrators, network administrators and executives.
Dave Russell, VP, Storage Technologies & Strategies, Gartner said, "The single most dramatic change is scale - or volume - of data, applications and virtual machines which cannot be processed by current backup environments. Organizations have increased service level agreements, rising expectations of availability and the need to run in a 24/7 business model. When combined with trying to integrate new technologies, it adds up to a disruptive environment with a huge impact on IT teams. Organizations small and large need a holistic protection strategy, a single platform or solution, to handle the variety of data types and workloads as opposed to integrating a number of disparate point solutions, which proves to be costly and time consuming."
Deepak Mohan, Sr. VP, Symantec's Information Management Group said, "Today, Symantec unveils a radical new plan to modernize data protection that will drive out 80 percent of the operating costs associated with backup over the next five years. Symantec is announcing a new set of solutions that address the problems in backup - from the most complex of enterprise data centers requiring a true tiered-recovery strategy to the smallest business that needs the confidence that they can easily recover their data."
