This document summarizes an IBM presentation about data storage solutions given by Marius Vasile, the STG Storage Sales Manager. The presentation introduced IBM backup and data protection solutions like Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack and ProtecTIER deduplication appliances. It discussed challenges with traditional backup methods and how IBM solutions address issues like recovery time objectives, data growth, and security. Use cases were provided for solutions like ProtecTIER native replication between primary and disaster recovery sites.

The world is changing, enabling organizations to make faster,
better-informed decisions as their systems can be made
instrumented, interconnected and intelligent.

Is your critical application data adequately protected?
Traditional once-a-night backup leaves
up to 24 hours of your most recent data Recovery Point Objective:
How much data can you afford to lose?
at risk
– How much data will you lose if your
database server crashes at 5 PM?
– How much will it cost you to re-
create those transactions?
It can take many hours or days to
perform a full restore from traditional
Recovery Time Objective:
How much downtime can you afford?
backup systems
– How much application downtime
can your business tolerate?

With this change comes an … Yet organizations are
explosion in information … operating with blind spots
Lack of Insight
1 in 3 managers frequently make
critical decisions without the
information they need
Volume of Digital Data
Inefficient Access
1 in 2 don’t have access to the
information across their organization
needed to do their jobs
Variety of Information
Inability to Predict
3 in 4 business leaders say more
predictive information would drive
better decisions

Business continuity depends on data recovery
Business-critical data exists throughout the enterprise: What can go wrong?
Deleted files
– Application servers in the data center
Corrupted database
– Remote and branch offices Virus/hacker attack
– Employee workstations Disk crash
– Disaster recovery sites Server crash
Businesses of all types are facing unprecedented Local disaster
challenges to keep more information available, all the time Regional disaster
– They can’t afford to lose any data, and they can’t afford Can you quickly
to be without it for very long recovery from each?
– Losing access to data causes downtime
The costs of downtime and lost data are escalating:
– Lost revenue streams and customer confidence
– Embarrassment in the marketplace
– Contract penalties, regulatory fines, legal action

IBM ProtecTIER Native Replication Features
One-to-one replication from primary to a DR-site
Flexible policy driven replication
– Choose which cartridges to replicate – one, some or all
– Assign priorities and schedule when replication should occur
Define cartridge “visibility”
– Determine “where” virtual cartridges “exist” from ProtecTIER and/or backup
application standpoint
– ProtecTIER native replication will emulate moving tapes in & out of VTL’s
import/export slots
– Allows users to use the VTL export/import slots via backup app to “move”
cartridges from one library/site to another
Manage and monitor operations during disaster
– Fail-over (when Disaster occurs) & Fail-back (to normal operation)

Challenges Associated with Today’s Reality
Data Growth Straining Backup & Disaster Recovery Environments
Reliability and Manual Intervention:
– Current methods require too much manual intervention
– Human intervention increases opportunities for failure
Security Risks:
– Transporting data on tape poses a significant risk to data security
– Handling tapes creates additional “failure” opportunities
• Human error is culprit 24 percent of the time*
Disaster Recovery Planning & Testing Challenges:
– Difficult to test DR plans using physical tape media
– Restoring data from tape too slow to enable adequate testing
Costs:
– Seven of 10 IT administrators struggling with increased costs of off-site data
storage
– Complexity and growth greatly increasing cost of operations
