Network Attached Storage is the ideal storage media for
environments needing large disk space for heterogeneous servers.
It is implemented in environments where you have large amount of data
but fairly less data activity.
The NAS appliance is connected over the IP across the network. Disk space
is allocated from this to multiple servers in the environment.
The beauty of the NAS structure is that it means that in an environment
with many servers running different operating systems, storage of data
can be centralized, as can the security, management, and backup of the
data.
We offer backup solutions for backing up the NAS box data. A tape
media device is connected directly to the NAS appliance. Industry
leading backup applications are configured in such way that the data
from the NAS appliance goes directly to the backup device without the
need to travel across the network.
NAS based backups are taken through the Network Data Management Protocol.
Our solutions enable enterprises to automate, centralize, and consolidate
recovery performance and less management overhead.
Backup data is converted into the NDMP format and written to the tapes as
biggest advantage is fast snapshot based backups from the NAS appliance.
Even large databases hosted on the NAS appliance get quickly backed up on
the media.
Similarly, the restores are equally fast. We offer solutions for
fast file-level and directory-level restore of the data. For a small
restore, the user can easily select the required files and restore
them fast. Even for a huge data restore involving millions of files,
directory-level recovery acts as fast recovery method without the need
for restoring the entire volumes.
The solutions we offer integrate both the above recovery
scenarios to help user to perform quick recovery based on his
requirement.
Quick downloading of the data from the backup sets on the media directly
attached to the NAS appliance. Since, there is no movement of data across
the network during a backup and a restore, the network bandwidth is
also not used for these activities.
Our solutions are compatible with all leading brands of NAS appliances
and NDMP v2, v3 and v4 protocols. We also offer the compatible tape
devices for the off shore backups.
