The latest news from EMC Data Domain http://www.datadomain.com/news/ en Copyright 2011 EMC Data Domain http://www.datadomain.com/images/logo_emc_datadomain.gif http://www.datadomain.com/ Mon, 8 Aug 2011 13:30:00 GMT EMC® Corporation today announced its next generation mainframe virtual tape library (VTL). Designed for use in IBM z/OS environments, the new EMC DLm6000 is the industry’s fastest mainframe VTL with 2x the performance of its nearest competitor. By leveraging the latest advances in EMC Data Domain® and EMC VNX® storage systems, the DLm6000 enables mainframe users to minimize their storage and replication costs and dramatically improve their disaster recovery capabilities. Unlike competing products, the DLm6000 is the only solution that can address the full range of mainframe tape workloads with a single, consolidated all-disk system. By matching different workloads to the most appropriate storage, the DLm6000 maximizes system performance and accelerates data retrievals and backup and recovery times. Mon, 8 Aug 2011 13:30:00 GMT http://www.datadomain.com/news/press_rel_080811.html EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, announced that EMC® is the leading provider of disk-based backup appliances, according to the new IDC Worldwide Purpose Built Backup Appliance 2010-2015 Market Analysis and Forecast, 2010 Vendor Shares report (May 2011). During the year 2010, EMC commanded a sizeable lead in the Purpose Built Backup Appliances (PBBAs) market in terms of both revenue and raw capacity shipped. The new report, which addresses both open systems and mainframe attached products, also points to continued robust customer adoption of disk-based backup appliances over the next five years. Mainstay products from EMC in the PBBA category include Avamar® and Data Domain® systems as well as mainframe attached disk-based backup products that incorporate technologies from the EMC acquisition of Bus-Tech®, Inc., in November of 2010. Tue, 10 May 2011 13:30:00 GMT http://www.datadomain.com/news/press_rel_051011.html EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today announced the most significant array of disk-based backup advancements in the history of the company.

EMC also announced that the GDA now supports the EMC Data Domain Virtual Tape Library software option, which further expands the number of supported backup applications including IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM). New high-end Data Domain DD890 and DD860 single controller systems also eclipse the throughput of competing solutions by up to a factor of 8. In addition, Data Domain systems now natively support and can protect IBM Power systems using the IBM i operating environment as yet another shared work load across the majority of the product line. Finally, EMC also announced the EMC Data Domain Archiver, the industry’s first long term retention system for backup and archive (see separate press release). Tue, 18 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMT http://www.datadomain.com/news/press_rel_011811a.html EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today announced the EMC Data Domain® Archiver, the industry’s first long term retention system for backup and archive. Using DD Archiver, customers can employ a single disk-based deduplication storage system to address both their operational backup needs and long term data retention requirements. The system delivers new operational efficiencies while eliminating the costs and complexities associated with a tape-based data retention approach. The new DD Archiver is based on industry leading Data Domain systems and uses active and archive storage tiers united by a single namespace for cost effective retention of backup and archive data for seven or more years.

In addition, since the release of the TheInfoPro’s previous Storage Study results (Q4 2009), EMC extended its lead as the vendor in use or in pilot for the Backup Data Reduction/Deduplication category. In this most recent Storage Study, EMC’s in-use rating at Fortune 1000 enterprises is now more than three times that of its closest competitor. Mon, 08 Nov 2010 13:30:00 GMT http://www.datadomain.com/news/press_rel_110810.html EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today announced the availability of new EMC® NetWorker® backup software integrated with EMC Data Domain® Boost software. The integration of these products dramatically increases backup speeds and simplifies configuration and management. The NetWorker Management Console now offers control for the full range of Data Domain system functionality, including Data Domain replication for scheduling and monitoring of backups at all sites. EMC also announced new productivity enhancements for NetWorker users, such as checkpoint restart, simplified cloning and new load balancing and space management capabilities. Mon, 04 Oct 2010 13:30:00 GMT http://www.datadomain.com/news/press_rel_100410.html EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today introduced a new, midrange deduplication storage system that drives continued price/performance increases into the Data Domain product line. The new EMC® Data Domain® DD670, which incorporates the Nehalem-based Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series, is over 2 times faster than midrange competitors using recently released EMC Data Domain Boost software and up to 1.5 times faster when used as a virtual tape library. Mon, 19 Jul 2010 13:30:00 GMT http://www.datadomain.com/news/press_rel_071910.html EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today announced next generation disk-based data protection capabilities with the new EMC® Data Domain® Boost software option. DD Boost is the first solution to optimize and accelerate traditional backup software interaction with deduplication storage. By distributing parts of the deduplication process to the backup server, DD Boost speeds up aggregate backup throughput on EMC Data Domain deduplication storage systems by an average of 50 percent, while significantly reducing load on backup LANs and backup servers. DD Boost, the industry’s most advanced transport and management interface to Data Domain systems, is already supported by third party backup software such as Symantec NetBackup and Backup Exec. Later this year, DD Boost will enable this same interoperability for Data Domain systems with EMC NetWorker®. At that time, the majority of the enterprise backup software market will have the ability to massively improve backup performance and simplify administrative functionality within existing environments by using the new DD Boost capabilities.
