EMC battles rogue backups |
July 10, 2013
With a new set of hardware and software releases, EMC is promising to simplify its customers' storage infrastructure by combining different types of operation into a single EMC system."We see this convergence of storage with modern systems, where you can think about backup, archiving and disaster recovery as an integrated process, rather than three separate processes," said David Goulden, president and chief operating officer of EMC.On Wednesday, the company will unveil a new midrange tier of Data Domain storage systems, updates to its Avamar and NetWorker backup software, and an update to its Mozy data storage service. The updates are part of a new approach to storage EMC is developing, one it says will allow its customers to use their primary storage systems to execute backup, archiving and disaster recovery functions as well."You can't just keep backing up data the way you did before. You need more intelligence in the backup system," Goulden said. "Backup software is moving up a level, and is becoming more of a catalogue and journaling of all the things in the protection storage tier."To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
