What If You Could . . .

� Backup and restore your VMs instantaneously

� Easily protect all your virtualized data with DR

� Save 50% on your storage, power, cooling, and space

� Deduplicate virtual server and virtual desktop data, enabling 50% space savings, or more

� Automate your most labor-intensive data management tasks

� Clone and provision storage as quickly as your VMs

� Do all of this with one architecture in any environment

Cost-Effective Data Reliability

The Problem� Double-disk failure is a

mathematical certainty� RAID 5

– Insufficient protection� RAID 10

– Double the cost

NetApp RAID-DP™ Solution� Protects against double- disk

failure� High performance and

fast rebuild� Same protection and

performance as RAID 10 at half the cost

Instantaneous Backup, Zero Server Impact

The Problem� High server utilization� No spare cycles for backups� Tape is slow, complex, &

expensive� DR is very difficult

NetApp Snapshot™ Solution� Servers run apps, not background

processes� Instantaneous backup and recovery� Low storage overhead� Application consistent

Traditional Backup Is NOT Practical

An Opportunity for NetApp Deduplication

� VM images consume storage equal to size of template� VM images are 100% identical

– OS software, patches, software drivers, application data� Save 50% on primary storage requirements after deduplicating

*Thin Provisioning, clones, & multiprotocol all contribute to savings.


Increase Agility with Fast Provisioning

� Time-consuming physical copies� Slow to provision or reprovision� Manual and complex� Not suited for VM provisioning

� Instant copies with FlexClone®

� Quick provisioning with FlexVol®

� Simple commands or policies� Ideal for dynamic VM environment

“The FlexClone feature allows our DBAs to establish new development and test environments in minutes instead of days. Ultimately, this shortens the time it takes to go from a new idea to a new revenue stream by at least 99%.”- Mark Tuttle, Sr. Engineering Mgr, AutoTrader.COM
