Extending D2D for Offsite Disaster Recovery: The ROI Case for WAN Vaulting (PC)

Speakers:
Barb Goldworm, President and Chief Analyst, Focus Consulting
Brian Biles, Co-founder and VP of Product Management, Data Domain

Data deduplication is now the critical enabler in extending the role of D2D solutions to deliver cost-effective offsite disaster recovery, by replicating - or “vaulting” - deduplicated data over existing WAN infrastructures.

In this webcast/podcast, storage expert Barb Goldworm uses standard financial analysis methods to build the business case for deduplication and D2D backup, and how it can be optimized for replication to deliver significant operational and cost efficiencies. Two case studies and multiple cost analysis models are presented, demonstrating how these companies experienced ROI of 100%-350%, with a 3-5 month payback period, and $800,000 to $1.1 million in cost savings.

Brian Biles then walks you through some of the fundamentals of deduplication and the various replication topologies that are being used by companies to protect and manage their data, and to consolidate tape backups to a central location.

You will learn how D2D and deduplication can provide:

  • Remote office data protection
  • Multi-site tape consolidation
  • Simplified offsite disaster recovery
  • Dramatic operational and cost efficiencies

“Data Domain solves our backup issue at all sites, and makes it possible to replicate across the WAN within our constrained bandwidth. Our compression rates exceed the average 20:1 as advertised by Data Domain, and in fact, we're seeing up to 35:1 compression. Data Domain has allowed us to do a complete replacement of tape technology at our remote sites for both backup and DR.”

— IT Manager, International Law Firm (case study presented in webcast)
