Understanding the New Generation of Data Protection Solutions

Overview A new wave of disk-based solutions has entered the market to address long-standing challenges in enterprise data protection.

Certainly, all data protection solutions have common basic requirements. Data will always need to be retained safely and securely; recovery should be possible with a reasonable amount of effort. However, by examining key differentiating factors - including retention period, speed and cost - one can segment the data protection market into three areas: staging solutions; backup/restore solutions, and archiving solutions.
