ExaGrid Disk-Based Backup Solution

ExaGrid's byte-level data de-duplication technology

The Lowest Cost, Highly Scalable, Turnkey Disk-based Backup System

An Easy to Use Disk Backup Solution with 20 to 1 Byte-level Data De-duplication at 30% the Cost of Standard SATA storage.

ExaGrid is a cost effective and scalable disk-based backup solution that works with your existing backup application. ExaGrid combines high quality SATA drives, compression, byte-level data de-duplication and a scalable GRID architecture for fast and reliable backups and restores at a fraction the price of standard disk.

ExaGrid's innovative approach minimizes the amount of data to be stored by providing standard data compression for the most recent backups, along with byte-level data de-duplication for all previous backups. ExaGrid's byte-level data de-duplication technology stores changes from backup to backup instead of storing full file copies. This unique approach reduces the disk space required by at least 20 to 1, delivering unparalleled cost savings and performance at 30% the cost of standard SATA disk storage.

ExaGrid's innovative back-up approach

Using ExaGrid's disk-based solution instead of tape can reduce an organization's backup window by 30% to 80%. A typical 12-hour backup window can be decreased to as little as four hours. ExaGrid increases the speed and reliability of your backups and also provides faster and more reliable restores.

For off-site long term retention or disaster recovery, an optional offsite system can be deployed at another location to supplement or eliminate offsite tapes with a live disk-based data repository, providing fast recovery in the event of a disaster. ExaGrid is extremely cost effective as an offsite system because the byte-level data de-duplication technology only moves changes, requiring minimal WAN bandwidth. The costs associated with tape handling, shipment, and storage are significantly reduced or eliminated.

ExaGrid allows for seamless scalability through a GRID Computing architecture. ExaGrid servers virtualize into the GRID to present a single pool of memory, processor and disk-storage. This allows your system to grow as your data grows.

ExaGrid Delivers Enhanced Security

ExaGrid's disk-based backup system helps IT departments comply with new, stringent regulations surrounding data retention and security while reducing or even eliminating cumbersome and problematic tape. Because the ExaGrid system sits in your data center behind standard network and data center security, the data is as secure as your organization's primary data. Also, when an ExaGrid system is deployed at a second offsite location, data is transferred between sites via a secure encrypted VPN, eliminating the need for complex encryption technology. When faced with the challenges of meeting today's new, strict regulatory guidelines for data retention and security, ExaGrid's disk-based backup solution helps organizations meet compliance requirements while simplifying backup processes.
