Fujitsu Storage ETERNUS CS8000 V6

• Thanks to complete consolidation all disk and tape target systems for mainframes and open systems enable large savings in infrastructure investments and costs of operation.
• Combining VTL and the NAS option for backup, archiving and second-tier file storage in one appliance further increases operational efficiency
• Integrated management of disks, deduplicated disk and tapes enables flexible service levels in terms of capacity, backup/restore speed and media costs
• The support for cloud gateway functionality leverages own investments in storage capacity and enables disaster recovery concepts without investing in own DR sites

• Flexible scalability of performance and capacity reduce high upfront pre-investments and support a pay-as-you grow approach
• Allocate storage resources for data protection according to business priorities
• Industry-leading backup and restore performance enable you to manage extreme data growth and volume without migration risks
• Parallelization of deduplication processes delivers the performance headroom required to benefit from data reduction even in petabyte-scale environments

• No single point of failure even for the deduplication store
• Asynchronous replication and synchronous mirroring enable flexible DR concepts depending on remote distance and recovery time needs
• Manages multiple data copies on local and remote targets to align the availability level of data with its importance to the business
• Automated processes ensure a highly efficient DC operation, easy media migrations, scheduled media refreshes to prevent data corruption and the ability to eliminate fatal errors in highly complex data protection environments
