The industry has
been struggling a lot with the backups of the data they have been having for
long now. Traditional tape based backup solutions seem good only for small size
environments now. Though they have been growing in individual capacities and
number of slots, better disk based options are pushing them more towards being
secondary rather than the primary backup mediums.
Big data needs
better care anyway for being big, and perhaps a bit more meaningful than the
databases with invoice records or product records. The new technologies like
deduplication and better compression algorithms like LZOB and ZLIB are making it
more cost effective to back them up by bringing down their size.
What is also
important is the cost of retaining this large volume of data and the varied
sources of this unstructured data.
Ace Data’s
Abhraya Cloud based backup offering resolves this challenge for its customers.
Its flexible backup policies allow organizations to keep latest data close to
them locally, and send the remaining to a cloud based offering. Being cloud
based, they pay for what they backup and not invest on large growth assumptions.
Furthermore as the backup grows old, it can be automatically archived to low
cost disks reducing the cost of long term retention while ensuring data
availability for long time.
The solution is
capable of backing up smartphones, mobile laptops, large volumes of file
servers apart from backing up the large servers and databases thereby ensuring
that all sources of data can be backed up through a single solution.
