Diligent ProtecTIER

Changing the Game of Disk-Based Data Protection
Diligent Technologies' ProtecTIER platform is the first enterprise-class disk-based data protection solution that enables customers to effectively increase the capacity of disk systems by 25 times or more. Powered by Diligent's game-changing, in-line data de-duplication technology HyperFactor , ProtecTIER eliminates redundant data, radically reducing the amount and cost of physical storage required. It enables customers to protect more data while recording less of it, all without disrupting existing policies, practices and procedures in their data center. The effect is dramatic. For the first time, the acquisition cost of a disk-based data protection solution is now BELOW that of an equivalent tape-based solution, without compromising performance, capacity, or 100% data integrity.

ProtecTIER is a software data protection platform running on a standard enterprise server that connects to any standard Fiber-Channel attached disk array. These three elements combine to become a high capacity, high performance, and highly scalable target for backup and archive data.

Diligent VTF Open

Recovery Assurance. Lower Cost.
VTFT Open is a software solution that emulates tape libraries, enabling existing backup applications to use disk, rather than tape, as their backup medium. VTF Open runs on a dedicated server that is connected to a Fibre Channel attached disk array. The combination of the software, server and array create a virtual tape solution that appears to the backup application as one or many real tape libraries.

By utilizing disk in the backup operation, customers achieve much greater data throughput performance, high availability, data protection (RAID, mirroring, replication), reduced mechanical and human errors, and rapid recoverability. Because VTF Open exactly emulates existing tape libraries, customers do not need to change existing backup policies, practices or procedures.

Key Benefits
  • Dramatically improve backup and recovery times
  • Increase backup reliability
  • Improve data center productivity
  • Reduces backup disk capacity by up to 25x or more
  • De-duplication runs in-line with backup processes; therefore enabling backups to complete within specified timeframe
  • Improves backup and recovery success rates
  • Requires no changes to existing backup and recovery operations
