ExaGrid Says Performance Is Key to Making Backup Solutions Run Efficiently

Overview

ExaGrid notes that data growth is causing many challenges for IT. Finding storage for all of that data is only one part of the challenge. Management is needed to ensure that stakeholders can locate and retrieve key assets when needed. A quick and efficient restoration process is also needed to satisfy time-sensitive business demands. ExaGrid has developed an innovative, intelligent backup solution that works with a company's existing application. Using byte-level data reduction technology, a high-performance processing platform based on Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors, and the dual-parity data protection scheme in hardware-accelerated RAID 6, ExaGrid's system provides backup and restoration 30 - 80 percent faster than traditional tape-based backup solutions.
