Data Domain

From its inception, Data Domain has helped customers reduce or eliminate the use of tape infrastructures with a very efficient disk and network-based data protection alternative. Today, Data Domain customers are expanding the use of their systems to include a broad range of near line workloads and use cases beyond data protection. In essence, Data Domain's file system technology represents a new generation of data versioning and replication efficiency.

Businesses all over the world are struggling to find a way to deal with their massive data growth and the increased regulatory requirements surrounding it. Not only does the data need to be protected, but it also needs to be easily and quickly accessible. Because of the economic stresses, these problems are hard for any business to solve. In order to successfully retain, replicate, and recover the data, it needs to be shrunk to a more manageable level. This process is called deduplication.

Why Dedupe? Deduplication enables dramatically longer on-site retention of data --months instead of days- - keeping data highly available. Data travels across the wide area network (WAN) once and as it passes through again, Data Domain software moves only the unique new segments. Replicated files are safely off-site and can then be recovered in seconds or minutes, without needing to locate, transport, or mount a tape.
 

Data Domain is the leader in De-duplication storage, and Net Direct Systems is a top partner in implementing this solution. We provide a complete backup and recovery solution for your environment. NDS is a certified partner with Data Domain. This partnership ensures that NDS provides the highest quality data management service to its customers.
