A new breed of storage options challenges the traditional data protection methods with a bold new approach to data protection and availability. This new storage architecture of protecting multiple systems, environments (physical, virtual and cloud) and applications in a single, highly efficient, virtualised storage pool is so radically different from the choices available in the marketplace today that it warrants its own category.

This category is called Protection and Availability Storage (PAS), which administers SLA-driven data protection and data management across the entire production environment – regardless of application, system or deployment model. PAS-based products radically simplify data protection and associated functions and reduce storage-related costs by up to 90%. Cost savings apply across all environments whether they are located on virtual, physical or cloud data infrastructures. This is an application-centric, SLA-driven data management paradigm that is independent of server, storage, or network infrastructure.

Actifio is the world’s first Protection and Availability Storage (PAS) Platform and can provide the following benefits for customers and partners:

1. Replaces legacy data management tools
2. Co-exists with current infrastructure and operations
3. Reverses data growth and shrinks storage footprint
4. Saves up to 90% over traditional storage solutions
5. Eliminates backup windows
6. Provides instantaneous restores (local and DR site) via data mount
7. Reduces bandwidth and network usage by up to 70% with Async-Dedup technology
8. Application-centric, SLA-driven
9. Protects and restores physical or virtual applications
10. Granular (object level) backups and recoveries
11. Backups and restores can be self-serviced by end users or IT generalists
