Over many years the increasing growth of data has been of significance to IT teams looking to access, manage and protect company information. That data now resides in a greater quantity of ever more disparate locations within or outside one geographical location. Estimates suggest that global data will reach 7.9 Zetabytes in 2015, up from 1.2 Zetabytes in 2010. Furthermore the same estimates forecast that number will have increased to around 40 Zetabytes by 2020.[1] Today over 60% of that data is unstructured and therefore in many cases, unmanaged and potentially difficult to protect and restore. Whilst many conversations circulate around big data and driving value from vast quantities of data, the day-to-day issue for most organisations is one of meeting and improving recovery point and recovery time objectives (RPO and RTO). Powerful, integrated technologies enable more frequent backups and rapid recovery across physical, virtual and cloud, different operating systems and applications.
Ever-increasing volumes of data across a wide range of platforms and applications impact recovery objectives. Backup Exec 15 enables intelligent protection of information that brings recovery points closer and recovery times shorter, maximising available infrastructure resources. Backups take place more frequently, restore is completed as soon as it’s needed. Once captured that data is easily transitioned and repurposed in virtual infrastructure for test, development and analytics. It’s Time for backup and recovery that outperforms expectations. It’s Time for Backup Exec 15.
