DXi6500

DXi6500 is a family of products that integrates disk-to-disk backup and restore performance with all leading backup applications using a simple NAS interface and Quantum’s deduplication technology. Deduplication reduces disk capacity needs by 90% or more, so systems stop filling up and IT departments save money. Plus, DXi6500 scales easily as your data grows without a service visit. For disaster recovery protection, DXi6500 replicates encrypted backup data between sites, using global deduplication to reduce typical network bandwidth requirements by a factor of 20 or more. And when it comes to long-term retention, DXi6500 is designed to provide direct tape creation in conjunction with leading backup applications, including Symantec applications using the OpenStorage (OST) API. The end result is multisite, multitier protection that’s easy to manage for restores and long-term retention. Best of all, DXi6500 is VMready, providing powerful protection for virtual environments and conventional servers alike. And backup software for VMware is included with every unit. With DXi6500, it’s the integration that turns this innovative technology into a cost-effective way to solve important backup challenges.
For many IT departments, traditional backup has not kept up with the need for faster performance and trouble-free restore. Disk-to-disk systems, which can increase backup speed and reliability, fill up too quickly, hold too few recovery points, and do
not offer a practical DR solution. The ideal backup solution, IT departments are often told, will require major infrastructure changes, complex integration, and high costs. The DXi6500 from Quantum offers a different kind of solution—it solves even
complex backup problems simply and affordably by integrating the most advanced storage technology into an easy-to-install, pre-configured appliance that includes all software licenses in the base price. The DXi6500 family of backup solutions gives
disk to disk performance—up to 2.5 TB/hour—and provides an easily-shared backup and restore resource for all leading backup applications using a simple NAS interface. The DXi6500’s deduplication technology reduces typical disk capacity needs by
90% or more so systems stop filling up—and it scales easily without a service visit, providing effective investment protection. For DR protection, the DXi6500 replicates encrypted backup data between sites, using global deduplication to reduce typical
network bandwidth requirements by a factor of 20 or more. For long term retention, the DXi6500 is designed to provide direct tape creation in conjunction with leading backup applications, including Symantec applications using the OpenStorage (OST)
API. The end result is multi-site, multi-tier protection that is easy to manage both for near-term restore and long-term retention. The DXi6500 is VM-ready, providing powerful protection for virtual environments as well as for conventional servers,
and it includes backup software for VMware with every unit. With the DXi6500, IT departments improve protection, centralize management, and reduce overall costs.
