Advantages

Data Security

Embedded Operating System is proprietary Linux - free from Windows viruses.

Data encryption and compression at source before their transfer to the Appliance.

Data is externalised from the Appliance to magnetic tapes, removable hard disks or via the network to a repository in another Appliance.

Appliance backs itself up (“security backup”).

Appliance is independent from the overall end user Information System.

Appliance is manufactured with commercial non-specific server components; the same software master is installed on all versions of the Appliance.

Restoration and Performance

The core of the master software is engineered primarily as a data restoration solution.

Backups are made to primary hard disk drive(s); most restorations are very rapid.

Restorations can be executed in parallel with backup operations.

Multiple restorations can be run in parallel.

Cross-platform restorations are possible (to another Server and different O/S).

Appliance backs up and restores servers, workstations and laptops, applications, data bases.

E-mail data bases, in addition to Windows, Linux & AIX O/S.

“Time Navigation” and “missing files management” make for rapid data restoration: simple and intuitive in only a few mouse clicks.

Ease of Use

Administration interface is web-based.

No need to administer any O/S.

Appliance is a complete solution, nothing to add, either hardware or software.

Once configured, the Appliance eliminates time-consuming daily administration.

Users have reduced on average by a factor of 10, the time spent on daily administration.

In case of an incident, one single interface, log file and point of troubleshooting.

Appliance range comprises various compatible models, with performances and data sizes tailored to customer’s needs.

Reducing Administration Costs

No need to schedule a costly integration phase.

Initial training is necessary for optimal use, but the solution is highly accessible.

Consumption of magnetic tapes is optimized.

Daily administration is simplified.

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is lower than alternative solutions.
