The solution would help small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) more effectively respond to the challenge of efficiently storing, managing and protecting increasing amounts of business-critical data.

This solution features automated setup and disk provisioning to expedite the backup process while providing faster disk-based backups and recoveries than backup with tape, said a press release

Pat Hanavan, vice president of product management, Symantec Information Management Group said, “The Dell PowerVault DL2100 Powered by Backup Exec 2010 provides a very simple data protection solution for mid-sized organizations, yet integrates enterprise-class de-duplication and archiving technologies to help our joint customers achieve significant storage and cost savings.”

PowerVault DL2100 integrates new archive options for Windows file systems and Exchange environments to allow SMBs to more efficiently manage their data life-cycles by setting automated retention periods to migrate older, less critical data over time to less expensive storage environments.

The archive options help optimize Exchange and File Server performance by eliminating redundant data at the server to further free up storage space, keep storage at predictable levels and reduce backup windows.

“Customers face exponential data growth and struggle with the amount of critical information they have to store, manage and protect on a daily basis. They’re telling us they need ways to automate routine tasks,” said Darren Thomas, vice president and general manager, Dell Enterprise Storage –

The Dell PowerVault DL2100 Powered by Symantec Backup Exec 2010, an integrated backup solution, can be installed and operating in 18 minutes, 533 per cent faster than a non-integrated version of the same solution, added the release.
