EGUIDE:
Linear Tape File System (LTFS) offers the chance to build nearline storage with the cost profile of tape and the access times of NAS. This guide walks you through LTFS and tape NAS.
EGUIDE:
There are many things to consider when designing storage to support a virtual desktop infrastructure environment. While budgets may limit some of your options, there are a number of creative solutions available that can help you get the performance your virtual desktops will require. Read this guide to learn more.
WHITE PAPER:
One of the most important decisions that you have to make when deploying a new storage solution is what RAID type(s) to use. Read this white paper for a discussion on how to select the right RAID policy for your Dell EqualLogic™ storage area network (SAN) arrays.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
This segment begins with an explanation of how long to store backups to get the maximum benefit of deduplication, and then discusses the appropriate frequency of full backups.
EBOOK:
In this handbook on the past, present and future of RAID data protection, learn which RAID data protection options are viable today, which ones make sense for your shop, and how RAID can be replaced and improved upon.
WHITE PAPER:
One approach being used to reduce complexity and TCO in the data center is the implementation of new management software for blade servers, increasing business value and trimming expenses that vex IT budgets and divert important resources for transformational projects.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper demonstrates that RAID 6 is less capable to prevent data loss with today's large capacity SATA and SAS HDDs. It will also share Oracle's designs to mitigate this risk. The integrity of customers' data is in jeopardy if these large capacity SATA/SAS HDDs are simply packaged into a RAID 6 group without additional mitigation.
CASE STUDY:
As a TV station offering programming around the clock, the requirements of a storage solution for digital media content at RTL II are both clear and sophisticated: the technologies used must be state of the art in order to meet the demanding IT performance requirements, as large data volumes need to be transferred at top speeds.
PRODUCT LITERATURE:
Auto-Snapshot Manager/VMware Edition (ASM/VE) is a unique and innovative data protection feature of the Dell EqualLogic™ PS Series iSCSI SAN that enables fast online backups and quick restores of VMware virtual machines.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
A RAID is a method of ganging up, so to speak, a bunch of disk drives, such that the availability and/or the performance is actually improved. Read this transcript for more basics of RAID.
