Fujitsu Extends Data Protection Offering with Veritas NetBackup Appliance
March 2017 by Marc Jacob
Fujitsu provides the industry’s widest choice of solutions for data protection with the addition of the Veritas NetBackup appliance to its portfolio. Regardless of the complexity or special requirements of any data landscape, Fujitsu offers the tools to back it up, providing customers with peace-of-mind in today’s digital world: As enterprises undertake digital transformation, managing and protecting ever-growing volumes of data is more critical than ever.
With the Veritas NetBackup appliance joining the line-up of ETERNUS CS target and integrated appliances, Fujitsu now offers customers a wider choice of data protection options than any other storage vendor. These data protection appliances help minimise business risk caused by missed backups and post-disaster data recovery failures, reducing the likelihood that sensitive data will be corrupted or unreadable.
NetBackup automates and standardises operations across applications, platforms, and virtual environments. Integrated deduplication, replication, and patent-pending virtual machine protection help improve storage efficiency, infrastructure use, and recovery times. Customers can count on backup appliances to address a wide-range of business requirements, ranging from support for remote or branch offices with limited IT staff, all the way to protecting data in corporate data centers. Appliances also provide backup for converged and hyper-converged infrastructures – such as Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX – and for software-defined infrastructures.
NetBackup software is used by tens of thousands of organisations worldwide. The Veritas NetBackup appliance combines software with its turnkey backup, recovery and deduplication solutions with an easy to deploy form factor. It enables customers to address a broad cross-section of scenarios, such as end-to-end deduplication for both physical and virtual environments, helping to reduce both network traffic and backup time.
