Data Domain is the leading provider of Capacity Optimised Storage solutions, a critical component of a next-generation data protection infrastructure for the enterprise. The company produces a family of disk-based storage solutions for data backup and recovery. Its products include the DD400 Enterprise Series and the optional Data Domain Replicator, an add-on software module that enables fast, highly efficient data replication over a WAN. Data Domain solutions are the industry’s most cost-effective and reliable disk-based data protection and disaster recovery solutions on the market today.
Using its high-speed capacity optimisation technology, Data Domain’s DD400 Enterprise Series appliances can store several months of backup and recovery data at a price point equivalent to tape. How? Massive data compression — on average 20:1 — at very high throughput rates reduces backup data volume to an absolute minimum. A fraction of the physical storage is needed to store months and months of backup data.
The Data Domain Replicator software module extends these efficiency benefits to network bandwidth utilisation, enabling network vaulting of backup data sets to a disaster recovery site, using a mere fraction of the network resources of conventional data replication technologies.
Additionally, the DD400 Enterprise Series offers unprecedented levels of data verification through its Data Invulnerability Architecture, which ensures that backed up data is restorable. Data Domain products integrate seamlessly with existing backup software applications, so only minimal infrastructure changes are needed to reap the benefits of this level of storage and network efficiency.
The company’s products are sold through regional, national and global reseller partners. The Data Domain SalesEDGE partner program is designed to distribute the company’s products to customers worldwide by enabling them to buy from partners they know and trust.
