The Life of a Typical 1 MB File<br />
User creates 1 MB ppt file <strong>and</strong> e-mails it to 10 people<br />
They all save the file on the network drive<br />
A month later the e-mail is put in a PST folder on the network drive<br />
For an average customer, that one file gets backed up:<br />
1. Weekly for four weeks x 10 on the file server = 40 copies<br />
2. Daily for four weeks on the e-mail server = 28 copies<br />
3. Monthly for five years x 10 of PST = 600 copies<br />
4. Monthly for five years x 10 of file = 600 copies<br />
That 1 MB file takes up over 1.2 GB<br />
of tape capacity
This Design Leaves IT Struggling<br />
The same data is backed up over <strong>and</strong> over again<br />
Multiple identical copies of information<br />
Cannot finish backups in available windows<br />
Recoveries are slow <strong>and</strong> unpredictable<br />
Typical Answers<br />
• Add more tape, add faster tape<br />
• Speed backup <strong>and</strong> expense of recovery<br />
(Incrementals, multiplexing, or less frequent backups)
<strong>Backup</strong> <strong>and</strong> Restore <strong>–</strong> Competing Requirements<br />
Accelerating <strong>Backup</strong>s<br />
<strong>Backup</strong> using incremental or<br />
differential technologies<br />
Interleave/multiplex multiple<br />
servers onto the same tape<br />
Don’t backup as often<br />
Just don’t backup some data<br />
Accelerating Restores<br />
Recover from full backups<br />
One server per tape<br />
<strong>Backup</strong> as often as possible<br />
(reduce log impact)<br />
<strong>Backup</strong> everything
<strong>Backup</strong> & Archiving ARE Different<br />
<strong>Backup</strong>:<br />
•A secondary copy of information<br />
•Used for recovery operations<br />
•Typically short term (weeks or<br />
months)<br />
•Data typically overwritten on<br />
periodic basis (i.e. monthly)<br />
•Not for regulatory compliance <strong>–</strong><br />
though some are forced to use<br />
<strong>Archive</strong>:<br />
•Primary copy of information-<br />
Available for information retrieval<br />
•Typically long-term (months,<br />
years, or decades)<br />
•Data typically maintained for<br />
analysis<br />
•Useful for compliance
