Data Domain Gateway Series

High-Speed Inline Deduplication for Third-Party External Storage Systems

The Data Domain Gateway Series extends the benefits of Data Domain deduplication technology to third party external storage systems. The Gateway Series transforms third party Fibre Channel attached disk arrays into highly cost-effective, efficient and reliable nearline storage systems.

Key features include:

  • Massive Data Reduction: Driven by Data Domain’s fast, inline deduplication technology, Global Compression, the Gateway Series offers an average 10-30x data reduction for backup images, enabling cost-efficient, long-term retention.
  • Fully Compatible with All Leading Enterprise Backup and Archiving Applications: Data Domain deduplication storage systems work with incumbent backup and archiving applications and support virtual tape library (VTL), Symantec OpenStorage (OST), or NAS-style interfaces.
  • Supports Leading External Storage Systems: The Gateway Series supports SAN-attached and direct attached connectivity with storage systems from several leading enterprise storage providers.
  • High Throughput and Extended Retention: The Gateway Series delivers up to 1.4 TB/hr of throughput and offers data protection capacities up to 1.7 PB per gateway enabling months of online retention ensuring fast and reliable data recoveries from disk.
  • Local and Remote Site Data Protection: The Data Domain Replicator software option enables Data Domain systems to function as a network-efficient solution for moving data offsite for disaster recovery (DR), remote office data protection and multi-site tape consolidation.
  • Advanced Data Integrity: Data Domain’s Data Invulnerability Architecture provides the best defense against data integrity issues to continuously verify, detect and protect against data recoverability issues throughout the life cycle of the data.
