Backup and Recovery Solutions

Ocarina Networks is now owned by Dell and has become a cornerstone technology of the Dell Storage Fluid Data Architecture. The first Dell product employing Ocarina Networks technology is the Dell DR4000, a data protection appliance that features unique deduplication and compression capabilities that can reduce the amount of backup data that is stored and replicated by a 15-1 ratio.

When used in conjunction with selected backup software, the DR4000 backup appliance forms a strong foundation for protecting all Dell storage products, including EqualLogic and Compellent as well as non-Dell storage systems. In short, the DR4000 changes the economics of disk-based protection by trimming storage costs, mitigating risk in data protection, and reducing complexity in the infrastructure.

Dell DR4000 Backup Appliance

The Dell DR4000 Back-up and Recovery Appliance enables efficient and high-performance disk- based data protection leveraging advanced deduplication and compression capabilities. Based on Ocarina’s technology and now a part of Dell’s Fluid Data Architecture, the DR4000 enables faster backups, faster recoveries and more reliable data protection.

Deduplication

Deduplication is a technology that eliminates redundant copies of data thereby decreasing disk capacity requirements and reducing the bandwidth needed for data transfer. Deduplication can be a major asset for organizations that are dealing with increasing data volumes and need to optimize their data protection.

Compression

Compression reduces the size of data that is stored, protected, and transmitted. Compression helps organizations improve backup and recovery times while helping reduce infrastructure complexity and network resource contention.
