Consider a deduplication solution that can be deployed as a virtual or physical server and/or in the cloud, can process up to 320TB per hour, and can manage deduplicated data on four different types of media (SSD, NL-SAS, Object Storage, or Tape) based on performance and capacity, and is scalable from 1TB to Multi Petabyte.
For the long-term data protection needs of various sectors, some of the features I mentioned above will provide modern features, more efficient results, and cost advantages. I'll explain how Falconstor's deduplication solution meets these requirements in the scenarios below in more detail.
Example 1: Performance and/or Cost Optimization
Because of its Software Defined architecture, Falconstor's deduplication solution is extremely adaptable. For example, you can install this solution as a virtual or physical server and use SSD disks for deduplication space to reduce backup times (Backup Windows). You can add and use NL-SAS or Object Storage as a deduplication area if you need more capacity rather than performance. Falconstor supports VTL (Virtual Tape Library), which allows you to deduplicate data on VTL fields and store a copy on physical tapes.
Example 2: Effective ransomware protection (Virtual or Physical Air-Gap)
By copying a copy of the deduplicated data to either Immutable supported Object Storage or physical tapes, you can create a virtual or physical Air-Gap with the Falconstor solution. If Object Storage or physical tapes are located outside of the same data center as the active data center, it will provide more reliable protection against ransomware and other events that may occur there. Furthermore, replicating between two instances of Falconstor is also possible.
Example 3: Active-Active or Active-Passive working architecture up to 8 servers
Falconstor solution is designed for deduplication of data from 1TB to multi-Petabyte level. In small businesses, this solution can be installed as a single virtual server, and in large enterprises, it can be installed in an Active-Active or Active-Passive architecture in physical servers with eight high-performance CPUs and NVMe disks. Large enterprises or cloud service providers (MSPs) will be able to operate at much higher speeds and maintain smooth operations even if a server fails.
Example 4: Multi-Cloud Support
Unlike box and purpose-only solutions, the Falconstor solution offers more flexibility and modern benefits for businesses' long-term data protection needs. A small business, for example, can replicate a copy of its data on-premises after deduplication to Azure, Amazon, Wasabi, RNG Technology, and other cloud services. It can provide high protection against both physical and ransomware with a low budget by storing it as Immutable in cloud environments. Businesses can replicate data from Falconstor on-premises to their preferred cloud environment (Replication) or create a second copy in Object Storage.
Example 5: Affordability (great cost advantage compared to alternatives)
There is no capacity limit on the Falconstor solution, which is licensed on a server-based monthly rental model.
When you lease a single server license, for example, you can install the application on a virtual or physical server in the facility or in the cloud, depending on your capacity and performance requirements. With this flexibility, you'll be able to accomplish a lot more with a smaller budget. You can rent a second Falconstor license if you require a second copy (replication).
Zero Risk: You can get the Falconstor solution and 24/7 professional support or managed services from RNG Technology without any prior investment. Since it does not require commitment, you can terminate the service at any time.
Protect your past and future investments: Falconstor is a software-based (Software Defined) solution that allows you to make the most of your existing data center's hardware resources. It can, for example, deduplicate 20TB of NL-SAS storage at up to 100:1 ratio.
Using Falconstor will reduce your external environment data protection costs: Falconstor allows you to deduplicate large-volume source data on-premises, store it in smaller areas, and even replicate monthly full backups to the external environment in a fraction of the time over slower internet connections. This advantage will make achieving difficult RPO targets a lot easier.
Falconstor: Deduplication Solution that works like an Equalizer
Falconstor offers a solution that can be adjusted to industry-specific needs, such as an equalizer, with advanced data management techniques, in addition to advanced data deduplication techniques. Whether it's processing up to 320TB per hour, storing deduplicated data at Petabyte scale at low cost over time, or protecting deduplicated data with physical Air-Gap techniques against ransomware and organized threats. Now you have an all-in-one solution.
