1 Vblock Data Protection Safeguarding Critical Data In VCE Virtualized Environments End-to-end Solutions from Backup to Business Continuity Ensure the Availability of VCE Virtualized and Cloud Computing Infrastructure, Applications, and Workloads. Virtualization and cloud computing help organizations increase asset utilization and decrease their total cost of ownership (TCO). However, the higher utilization poses greater challenges in backing up and restoring data in a virtualized environment. The new data center for today needs a new data protection strategy one that can shrink backup windows, improve recovery times, and reduce the backup data footprint. Now, with Vblock Infrastructure Platforms, IT has an innovative solution for all of its data protection needs. VCE Vblock Data Protection ensures continuous availability of your IT infrastructure, applications, and workloads running within VCE virtualized and cloud computing environments. Our flexible family of solutions allows a choice of streamlined backup and recovery, data replication, business continuity, and workload mobility to deliver reliable, predictable, and cost-effective availability for Vblock platforms. Unmatched Data Protection for Vblock Platforms Vblock Data Protection leverages innovative technology from EMC, Cisco, and VMware to address the data availability requirements of organizations that have implemented virtualized data centers or cloud computing on Vblock platforms. n Simple VCE supplies the precise level of data protection needed, backed by our responsive, expert support. This reduces your administrative burdens and frees IT personnel for more strategic tasks. n Complete End-to-end solutions ranging from sophisticated backup and recovery to business continuity are integrated and validated by VCE in controlled environments prior to delivery. This ensures timely, optimum functionality and performance in any virtualized or cloud environment. n Flexible Organizations can manage risk by choosing from cost-effective daily backups, continuous data replication with flexible rollback options to better align with desired recovery time objectives (RTO), or zero-data-loss business continuity for applications that demand continuous availability. This makes Vblock Data Protection ideal for any organization ranging from an enterprise that is simply looking for efficient and cost-effective backup and recovery in the event of physical or logical system failures, to a financial services provider whose business relies on always-available customer or transaction information.

2 Vblock Data Protection Elements The Vblock Data Protection family of solutions scales from one to many platforms within and across data centers to provide the precise data protection needed. n EMC Avamar Deduplication backup system and software that provides highly efficient, variable-length deduplication, with tight integration to EMC purpose-built, backup appliances. Avamar enables fast, complete daily backups of virtualized environments including the entire IT infrastructure, enterprise applications, and data. Deduplication on the client side reduces ESX contention and network traffic by sending only changed blocks to the backup target. This shortens backup times in even the busiest virtualized environments while keeping full backups available for rapid, single-step restores. n EMC Avamar plus Data Domain Dual options: Avamar targets the Avamar Data Store in your solution. Or for larger, high-change-rate workloads, the target can be a Data Domain system that provides highspeed, variable-length, inline deduplication. The result is a backup data storage footprint that averages 10x to 30x smaller than traditional backup. n EMC RecoverPoint Continuous data protection with flexible recovery points. The solution can be rolled back to any point in time using snapshots that can be mere seconds apart to quickly restore critical applications and data. RecoverPoint can also be used to efficiently migrate data from one virtualized Vblock platform to another. n EMC VPLEX A powerful, innovative solution that delivers unsurpassed workload mobility and business continuity. VPLEX enables administrators to share, protect, or load-balance their infrastructure resources across multiple Vblock platforms in the same data center or in different data centers within a campus or metro area. You can easily and non-disruptively move live virtual machines between locations to avoid planned downtime. VPLEX also handles unplanned events automatically with zero data loss and zero to near zero application recovery time. Count on VCE VCE Professional Services can install Vblock Data Protection together with your VCE virtualized or cloud computing environment. The comprehensive family of solutions has been optimized to ensure the availability of Vblock platforms, applications, and workloads. In addition, VCE Support provides responsive, dependable onecall access should any issues arise over time.
