Portal:Data Protection


Welcome to Wikibon's Data Protection Portal. This Portal is a resource for IT professionals interested in understanding how to apply backup and recovery technologies to create a business capability that protects information in the most cost effective and appropriate manner. We invite you to be actively involved in the Data Protection Portal. Please join Wikibon, browse the portal and participate. You can write a Wikitip, Ask a Question or attend a Peer Incite Research Meeting.

The Wikibon Data Protection Information Portal contains data protection industry research, articles, expert opinion, case studies, and data storage company profiles.

Check out these Peer Incite Podcasts related to Data Protection:

1. Dave Vellante summarizes Eric Peterson of SaskEnergy's discussion about the organization's implementation of Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) and an incremental forever backup strategy (8:36)


2. Data De-duplication: Greasing the Rails of the Backup Window. Wikibon summarizes source vs target-based De-dupe and where each makes sense for users. (6:42)

Wikitip

Deduplication evaluation criteria

Installations evaluating remote backup and recovery services must establish a robust process for looking at the impact of inserting site de-duplication technologies. This should be done on an application-by-application level (or by major application groupings). Evaluation criteria should include recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO), as well as cost and risk. The hard question “what happens when the de-duplication technology fails” must be asked, answered and planned for from a contingency perspective. This process should include strong input from corporate risk officers and the line of business.

Featured Case Study

P&H Mining's Journey to Disk-based Backup

A data center within P&H Mining Equipment (P&H) had a problem recovering from a tape library that was too small. Recovery of files and emails was taking up to 72 hours, and IT was increasingly concerned that it would not be possible to recover from a major disaster. Rather than increase the capacity of the tape library from 500 to 1,000 tapes, P&H choose an innovative solution of a ten terabyte data de-duplication system from Data Domain.

Featured How-to Note

Implementing Fail Proof Backup and Recovery

Implementing a failproof backup and recovery capability will protect an organization from data loss and downtime as a result of any of the following: hardware or software failure, power failure, natural disaster, or human error. There are two fundamental considerations when implementing a failproof backup and recovery capability: how quickly the organization needs to recover the data and how much data it can afford to lose. The challenge is finding the balance between data protection/recovery and the amount of investment required. This research note will provide guidelines to help make this determination.

Storage Virtualization Design and Deployment

A main impediment to storage virtualization is the lack of multiple storage vendor (heterogeneous) support within available virtualization technologies. This inhibits deployment across a data center. The only practical approach is either to implement a single vendor solution across the whole of the data center (practical only for small and some medium size data centers) or to implement virtualization in one or more of the largest storage pools within a data center.
