4 New Backup Challenges Virtualization Alone Leaves Inefficiencies Potential Barrier to Greater Consolidation and Value OLD PARADIGM Low overall utilization and plenty of bandwidth for backup NEW PARADIGM High overall server utilization, but low bandwidth for backup 4

9 EMC Avamar Overview Revolutionizes Backup with Global Sourced-based Data De-duplication Radically reduce the amount of backup data sent over networks and stored Minimizes required bandwidth for backup Accelerates backups Reduces total cumulative backup storage De-duplicates across sites and servers for maximum efficiency Cost effectively stores more full backups on disk Alters the economics of disk versus tape; accelerates shift to disk for backup Enables fast, secure, backups over existing network connections Alternative to archaic IT processes (shipping tapes for disaster recovery) Ideal for VMware infrastructure, remote offices, and data center backup bottlenecks 9

10 How De-duplication Works Global Source-based Data De-Duplication Instances First Instance VMDK1 Duplicate Instance VMDK1 VM VM VM Para VM VMware Hypervisor VMvisor Management Virtual Services Resource Management Storage File System Networking VM Hardware Hardware CPU Memory Only unique data segments are backed up A B C D Data already backed up, so only a unique ID pointer is stored (20 bytes) A B C D E E New data segment identified and backed up Avamar (stored backup data) 10

11 Target- and Source-based De-duplication Both Architectures Achieve Similar Storage Optimizations Only source-based approach reduces network bandwidth requirements and provides immediate, one-step restore TARGET DE-DUPLICATION SOURCE-BASED DE-DUPLICATION B B B B B B De-duplication Device Avamar Up to 50x reduction in backup storage Moves 200% of primary data weekly Fits seamlessly into existing backup and restore environments Backups are typically restored from full and incremental images Up to 50x reduction in backup storage Moves ~2% of primary data weekly Up to 500x reduction in network impact Up to 10x faster daily full backups All backups are full; immediate, single-step restore 11

12 De-duplication Benefits Begin at the Source Avamar: Tangible Customer Results Data Type Amount of Primary Data Backed Up Amount of Data Moved Daily Windows file systems 3,573 GB 6.1 GB 586:1 Daily De-duplication Ratio Mix of Windows, Linux, and UNIX file systems 5,097 GB 11.7 GB 436:1 Engineering files on NAS (NDMP backups) 3,265 GB 24.2 GB 135:1 Mix of 20% databases, 80% file systems (Windows and UNIX) 9,583 GB 80.0 GB 120:1 Mix of Linux file systems and databases 7,831 GB GB 75:1 Source: EMC 12

14 EMC Avamar: Backup Built for VMware Starts De-duplication at the Optimal Location and Level of Granularity Optimal Location: Reduces data at the source Duplicate data never traverses congested shared resources Data backed-up is reduced from 200% to 2% of primary-weekly Significantly reduces contention for shared resources De-duplicates within and across virtual machines and/or.vmdk files Optimal Granularity: Sub-file, variable-length segments.vmdk is one, large file, any changes cause an incremental/full traditional backup Fixed-length segment de-duplication fails due to frame offset Sub-file, variable-length segment de-duplication finds changes anywhere in.vmdk Dramatically cuts the amount of data backed up daily Significantly reduces daily backup time Ideal for the protection of VMware environments Enables fast, secure, backups over existing virtual infrastructure Permits higher consolidation and maximum value from VMware 14
