Backup & Recovery Solutions


The rapid growth of the size of data in corporate environment and the overwhelming day-to-day tasks imposed on IT personnel has made tape backups less desirable. Tape drives' inherent sluggish performance and unreliability are simply becoming too obvious to ignore. More and more IT professionals are tired of handling tape cartridges and all of the time-consuming overheads associated with managing tape backups.

Using disk as a backup target is now a mainstream solution that is being deployed in many organizations.  Having designed and deployed dozens of disk-based backup architectures, we can help you with the following:
 
    -  Shorten RPOs & RTOs
    -  Better manage backup and recovery processes
    -  Effective DR testing and compliance
    -  Show how deduplication, compression & replication factors into a disk-based backup strategy

MR2 solutions has selected partners with the following solutions:




The ExaGrid system is a cost effective and scalable disk based backup solution that works with your existing backup application. ExaGrid combines high quality SATA drives,  compression and byte-level data de-duplication for fast and reliable backups and restores.

ExaGrid's innovative approach minimizes the amount of data to be stored by providing standard data compression for the most recent backups, along with byte-level data de-duplication for all previous backups. ExaGrid's byte-level data de-duplication technology stores changes from backup to backup instead of storing full file copies. This unique approach reduces the disk space required by at least 20 to 1, delivering unparalleled cost savings and performance at 30% the cost of standard SATA storage.  Click here to learn more.



The Idealstor Backup Appliance is complete disk to disk backup solution that becomes the host for your backup software and the target for backup data. Idealstor provides the speed and reliability of disk coupled with the portability of tape. Idealstor uses any capacity Serial ATA or IDE disk as backup media that can be physically removed and taken offsite for backup and offsite storage. All units come installed with the Windows operating system and function as the media server and target for backup data. Connected to the network via GB or 10/100 Ethernet, our backup systems achieve average speeds of up to 2GB/minute and can perform multiple simultaneous backups.

In addition to hardware, Idealstor has developed Ibac Data Protection Software to take advantage of this unique method of backing up data. Ibac backs up data in native format and allows administrators to continuously backup data or run scheduled backups based on need or budget.   Click here to learn more.
