Data Domain to Display Latest Disk Backup and Disaster Recovery Solutions at Storage Expo 2006

New DDX Array Series for Large Data Centers and Lloyds TSB Customer Presentation Top Data Domain Agenda at Storage Expo

London, UK — October 17, 2006 — Data Domain, the leading provider of Enterprise Protection Storage systems for disk backup and network-based disaster recovery, announced today that it will be promoting its new generation of data protection solutions at the Storage Expo 2006 conference (stand 312) on October 18-19th in London. The Company’s new DDX Array Series is the industry’s first data center-scale deduplicating protection storage array, offering up to 15 petabytes of capacity and throughput rates of up to 6.4 terabytes per hour. In addition, Colin Everett, Head of IT Strategy & Architecture, Lloyds TSB Corporate Markets will present his division’s implementation of Data Domain’s disk-based backup and disaster recovery solutions to conference attendees on Wednesday, October 18th at 12:45 p.m.

“Data Domain has helped numerous enterprises of all sizes solve the challenges they’ve faced with shrinking backup windows, unreliable tape-based backup systems and their associated operational issues and costs,” said Kevin Platz, Managing Director, EMEA Sales of Data Domain. “This year at Storage Expo, we are expanding our addressable market reach with introduction of Data Domain’s DDX Array Series, which brings our industry leading deduplication technologies to large scale datacenter customers. Beyond the common and quite widespread difficulties so many enterprises face with backing up their data and implementing cost effective disaster recovery strategies, increasingly tighter European compliance standards are accelerating the need to retire these legacy tape-based backup systems. Massive reduction of backup data volume through deduplication technology is the only cost effective way for users to make the move to disk-based data protection. Data Domain pioneered this technology, and now leading companies like Telecom Italia, Lloyds TSB and Axpo Informatik have fast, verifiable backup and restores and can securely replicate data over WANs for effective disaster recovery — all as a result of deploying Data Domain solutions.”
