AIMstor CDP

With AIMstor CDP ~ Continuous Data Protection, you can achieve granular Recovery Point Objectives down to the last minute and instantly restore any snapshot.
REAL-TIME DATA CAPTURE
-

- If you need data recoverable down to the last minute for any file or application, AIMstor does it. Our ability to capture and transfer data in real-time to intelligent storage repositories gives you the edge you need for maximum protection.
GRANULAR RESTORE FROM TIMELINE
-

- Use our timeline to grab any snapshot and restore instantly.
DISTRIBUTED ARCHITECTURE
-

- Next generation approach allows easy connectivity and management for central and remote sites, physical and virtual machines, file and application data.
UNIFIED WITH BACKUP AND REPLICATION
-

- AIMstor's CDP is fully unified with AIMstor Backup and uses the same snapshots reducing bandwidth and storage. You can also combine CDP with Replication allowing you to move the same stream of CDP data to a live replication target. Ideal for failover or keeping a live file system synced real-time to another location.

- Feature
- Benefit
- Realtime duplicate
- Maintains Realtime duplicate of source data.
- Granular
- Point in time restore capability.
- Application consistant snapshots
- Can be used in conjunction with application backup to provide realtime application consistent snapshots.
- Offline CDP
- Recovery points are maintained during offline periods.
- Eliminates Backup Windows
- Because data is captured as it changes causing no bulk data transfers or file system scans, and because the backup process causes no overhead to the source machine, there is no longer a requirement for a backup window.
- Eliminates Client Side Overhead
- Unlike traditional backup processes, AIMstor does not scan client or server file systems looking for changed data.
- Byte-Level Change Aware
- Only the data that is changed is transmitted. For instance, if a 10KB email is added to a 3GB PST file, then only the 10KB change to the PST file will be sent. A traditional backup process will first have to scan the whole file system looking for changes and then transmit the entire 3GB PST file.
- Real-Time Data Movement
- Changed byte transfer removes the need for a backup window. Using real time data movement of changed bytes for backup, changed data is moved instantly for backup.
- Reduced Overhead
- Live deduplicated backups vastly reduce CPU, system and network overhead on the source machine. Data is captured incrementally as it is changed or created, then transferred.
- Fast and Efficient Restore
- No layered restore process. Although data is captured byte by byte incrementally, data is indexed so a full image is available, and restored as a single stream equivalent to restoring from a full backup. Provides ultra fast restores, and a consistent point in time backup of the complete dataset.
- Browse Snapshots or
Search for Restore - Online full restores that are already deduplicated and can be browsed are always at hand. All data undergoes Tag-Store-Index process to make it Search-Ready, increases speed for file restore, or file version retrieval by factors of up 100X over legacy products.
- Source Deduplication
- Utilizing several deduplication schemes, from the point of primary data change awareness, to transfer of data, and repository single instancing, AIMstor reduces storage capacity needed many fold. See data deduplication.
- Centralizes Backups
- Backups from multiple nodes, laptops, desktops, file servers and application servers, for all-in-one, high performance, backup.

The CDP Operation can be combined with other AIMstor Operations, such as Backup or Replication, to create one single policy for many types of Data Protection. Fine tuning Recovery Point Objective, Retention and other parameters is easily done within the Workflow User Interface.
