The DXi7500 Enterprise is the disk backup solution for data center environments that allows users to add policy-based deduplication, remote replication, and direct tape creation to their backup strategy to increase performance, enhance data protection and reduce costs. The DXi7500 uses Quantum’s patented data deduplication technology to reduce disk requirements by 90% or more and make WAN-based replication a practical, DR tool. Scalable to 220TB usable capacity, the DXi7500 is designed for corporate data centers and consolidated storage in distributed environments.

• Scalable capacity of up to 220TB—retains PetaBytes of backup data

• Replication compatible with DXi2500-D, DXi3500 and DXi7500 Express models

• Seamless integration with leading backup software, including support for Symantec’s OST API for NetBackup  

• High performance (up to 4TB per hour) provides enterprise scale protection

• Direct tape creation support, along with policy-based deduplication

Advanced Data Deduplication Increasing Disk Retention for Backup Data 
The DXi7500 Enterprise leverages Quantum’s patented data deduplication technology to increase the role that disk can play in the protection of critical data while reducing costs. With the DXi7500 Enterprise solution, users can reduce disk requirements by 90% or more and make WAN-based replication a practical DR tool and consolidate their data protection across multiple sites with centralized, streamlined management.

Remote Replication of Backup Data Providing Automated Disaster Recovery Protection
With the benefits of deduplication, DXi7500 Enterprise users can transmit backup data from a single or multiple remote sites equipped with any other DXi-Series model to a central, secure location to reduce or eliminate media handling. DXi–Series replication is asynchronous, automated, encrypted and it operates as a background process.  Mulitple replication modes are supported including application-aware replication through Symantec’s OST API for NetBackup.

Enterprise Features Provide Secure, Centralized Repository
Up to 220TB usable capacity, 4TB/hour performance. Quantum’s policy-based deduplication gives users the option to choose different deduplication approaches for different datasets, providing optimal value for the widest range of data protection environments. Presentations include both VTL (Fibre Channel) and NAS (CIFS and NFS), as well as support for Symantec’s OST API. Integrated tape creation writes physical media directly over dedicated Fibre Channel connections, with certified support for leading backup applications, including NetBackup, Networker, CommVault, HPDP, and TSM.

Quantum’s DXI-Series disk backup solutions leverage data deduplication technology to reduce disk requirements by 90% or more and make WAN-based replication a practical DR tool. All models are connected by a common technology base, replication capability, and management layer. This allows IT departments to connect all their sites in a comprehensive data protection strategy that boosts backup performance, and reduces or eliminates media handling.  Replication includes file-by-file and cartridge-by-cartridge support, encryption during transmission, automated target availability, scripting support for flexible automation, and application aware operation.

Quantum Vision™ software enables simplified management of Quantum DXi™ disk-based backup systems and Scalar® tape libraries -- whether you have one system or many, Vision software enables you to plan for upgrades while maximizing resources by providing detailed performance, replication, status and capacity information. Vision also has the capability to launch into the native GUI’s of your Quantum disk and tape devices, providing a consolidated management view. With increased complexity and a multitude of technologies being used in most data centers, combined with more data to protect, a simple management tool, such as Quantum’s Vision software can streamline the backup process.
