Data Protection
The SNIA Data Protection and Capacity Optimization (DPCO) Committee was created to foster the growth and success of the market for data protection and capacity optimization technologies. Data protection means assurance that data is usable and accessible for authorized purposes only, with acceptable performance, and in compliance with applicable requirements. Capacity optimization refers to methods which reduce the consumption of space require to store a data set and its scope and is not limited to secondary storage.
The goals of the DPCO are:
- Educate the vendor and user communities about data protection and efficient data storage technologies
- Perform market outreach that highlights the benefits of relevant technologies and document implementation considerations and best practices
- Advocacy and support of technical work associated with data protection and capacity optimization

Deduplication's Role in Disaster Recovery
Data deduplication can enhance Disaster Recovery (DR) because deduplication significantly reduces the amount of band width required to replicate data.
Learning Objectives
- Review Data Deduplication Concepts.
- Cover the impact of Deduplication on WAN Replication.
- Discuss Deduplication effects on meeting SLAs for DR.

Data Protection unter der Lupe

Backup auf Tape, Disk und andere Medien Einführung in die Datensicherung: Band-, Laufwerk- und andere Backups von Marcus Schneider, SNIA Europe Board Member, Director Product Segment Data Protection, Fujitsu
In der Praxis steht Datensicherung (Data Protection) für Datenverfügbarkeit: ohne Verfügbarkeit keine Business Continuity. Hierfür müssen Unternehmen alle notwendigen Maßnahmen treffen, um im Schadensfall schnell reagieren zu können. Denn Daten sind ebenso wertvoll wie verwundbar. Sie werden versehentlich manipuliert und gelöscht oder von Viren zerstört; oft misslingen Patches, entstehen administrative Fehler.Germany

Backup-Infrastruktur im Überblick
13 July 2011
Der Aufbau einer Backup-Infrastruktur ergibt sich aus der zu schützenden IT-Struktur. Ein Buchführungsserver etwa arbeitet mit strukturierten Daten und nutzt als Software-Komponente der Backup-Anwendung einen sogenannten Agenten. Dieser sammelt Daten und Metadaten für den Backupserver.
