Solutions : Backup & Restore

Traditional Backup/Restore solutions were TAPE-BASED (disk to tape) D2T. These were attractive due to relative cost difference between disk and tape at the time. More recent trends have been DISK-BASED (disk-disk) D2D. Increased capacity and lower cost of disk storage, reduced backup windows and speed of restore have driven tape into more of an archive solution.

For those who need both onsite backup and offsite archive, consider the double parachute, disk-disk-tape (D2D2T) solutions. All the benefits of disk-based backups with the added benefit of removable tape copy for archive.
