Backup and Recovery Suite
Backup/Restore is the largest cost element in storage ownership and the most
important to high-availability computing. In today’s global IT environment, it is no longer
enough to have a backup copy of one’s data.
The Backup and Recovery Suite consists of eight powerful software packages that allow
businesses to perform copy, backup and restore in the shortest possible time and with
minimum disruption to information availability. Hitachi Multiplatform Backup/Restore
software delivers high-performance volume-level backup of open systems data to a S/390
host thereby leveraging mainframe based storage management procedures. The Hitachi
e-Copy software feature enables nondisruptive backups to be made directly from disk to
tape in a SAN environment without incurring server and I/O overhead during actual data
movement. Hitachi Data Systems has teamed up with industry leaders to deliver first-rate
solutions that simplify the copy, backup and recovery processes. Through these strategic
alliances, users can seamlessly and cost-effectively deploy, implement, and optimize backup
tasks. CommVault
