WAN-optimized Heterogeneous Replication
Data replication has become part of the fabric of IT due to its multiple uses and benefits. However, as IT and business managers are well aware, data replication can quickly increase your bandwidth and storage costs. WAN optimization technologies can help reduce the amount of bandwidth and storage capacity used by data replication, enabling cost savings while maintaining application performance.

Virtually Effortless Backup for VMware Environments
Backup and disaster recovery (DR) strategies protect data from corruption and failures — and ensure that if these types of events occur, companies aren’t forced out of business. Data protection becomes even more important in a virtualized server environment, because each physical server serves as a foundation for multiple virtual servers. If a physical machine fails, multiple applications and processes are impacted.

The Value of Storage Virtualization
""Virtualization"" has become a buzzword in technology circles lately, but what exactly it is—and what it is not—have been variously and vaguely defined. This white paper addresses the specific topic of storage virtualization. Presented within a context of related issues in storage networking, storage virtualization is defined, its benefits are presented, and its features detailed.

Simplifying Disaster Recovery (DR):
Having a disaster recovery (DR) plan is mandatory. Most organizations recognize this— particularly those that have learned this the hard way, when a disaster caught them unprepared. DR procedures have always been complicated for the physical server infrastructure, and the introduction of server virtualization has only made matters worse. VMware created vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) to streamline virtual server DR, but physical infrastructure DR procedures have remained difficult and time-consuming.

Replicate with Integrity:
As organizations increasingly adopt server virtualization, they have begun to leverage remote replication as a means of increasing system availability. This is a simpler, more cost-efficient alternative to using traditional physical servers for disaster recovery (DR). However, utilizing simple replication in a virtual server DR plan provides only “crash consistent” virtual disk images, which can affect the consistency of file systems or applications and ultimately create longer recovery cycles. In addition, managing and coordinating resources between sites can be complex and challenging.

Optimizing Oracle RMAN and ASM Environments with FalconStor VTL and Integrated Deduplication
The importance of adequate backup and disaster recovery (DR) for Oracle databases cannot be emphasized enough. These databases continue to grow and drive additional business processes throughout enterprises of all sizes. But with all the challenges that IT faces – such as budget constraints, distributed data centers, ever-growing bandwidth and storage capacity needs, and trying to maintain consistent Oracle high availability – backup and DR procedures have become complex and costly.

Optimizing Blade Environments with IPStorTM
Blade server technology is new, exciting, and is beginning to assert its presence in the world of storage. Why? Blade servers potentially hold tremendous benefits for enterprises – huge savings of physical space, energy efficiency, greater power, and improved flexibility. However, because they lack local disks, blade servers' full potential – and popularity – hinges on the performance characteristics and flexibility of the storage to which they are connected.

The New Generation of De-duplication Technology Offers Clustered Architecture and Linear Performance Aggregation
IT managers and executives face explosive data growth, driving up costs for primary storage as well as storage for backup and disaster recovery (DR). Nevertheless, IT organizations continue to seek solutions to reduce storage costs and footprint while maximizing return on investment (ROI) on their IT infrastructures. To meet these demands for improved efficiency, FalconStor Software offers Single Instance Repository (SIR) de-duplication technology, which integrates tightly with the industryleading FalconStor® Virtual Tape Library (VTL). This white paper explains how VTL with SIR reduces storage and replication bandwidth requirements with unique features such as clustered architecture and linear performance aggregation.

Merging Backup and Disaster Recovery (DR) Processes
For years, disaster recovery (DR) and data protection practices have consisted of two different technology islands — data protection and tape backup. The processes to implement both have usually been separate and handled by different IT departments. Enterprises have attempted to merge the two, but many still use different software products and different processes for replication and tape backup. This paper describes how continuous data protection (CDP) technology can bridge various DR methodologies to help organizations overcome the challenges of tape and achieve maximum benefits from their IT investments.
