Sepaton S2100-ES3, the Solution for Enterprise Backup Deduplication

Large corporations and enterprises generate hundreds of terabytes and even petabytes of data, and all this data requires backup. Working with such large volumes of data creates a challenge in finding an equally efficient backup solution. Data deduplication only provides part of the solution. At the end of the day, what is needed is a dynamic and modern backup system to support an ever-growing stream of data.

When analyst firms predict that a large enterprise will experience so much data growth in a given time period, the enterprise plans to accommodate this growth burst to ensure systems are kept up and running. In most cases, particularly factoring in the pace at which modern-day technology is advancing, the analyst firms underestimate the expected growth. While they can simply recant their earlier statements and save the day, storage architects are left with the hard task of finding innovative methods to deal with the unaccounted for data.

Sepaton data encryption system S2100-ES3 has been designed specifically to provide a timeless solution to the predicaments facing government and enterprise data centers in the present day. These challenges are, for instance:

Massive data growth spurts

Economic restrictions and need for cost-cutting measures at all points

Increasing risks of unauthorized infiltration

Costly and complex data center systems

Offering superior speeds and performance margins compared to other solutions in the industry, Sepaton data encryption systems are useful when data administrators need to:

Restore service level agreements (SLAs)

Meet objectives with considerable ease

Backup windows

The S2100-ES3, designed with speed in mind, is capable of delivering speeds of up to 80TB per hour, irrespective of the data types, capacity utilization or data change rates.

Sepaton uses its original DeltaScale™ architecture to deliver advanced performance capability and flexible expansion plans. This means that you can initially purchase only what is necessary for your business’s data requirements, with room for capacity and performance increments as the business grows. What makes such flexibility and efficiency possible is:

Installation of 1-8 processing nodes, as per data requirement, with 8 nodes delivering a whopping 80 TB/hr performance capability.

Scalable storage capacity beginning from as little as 24 TB to 2.59 PB through addition of disk shelves.

High performance data deduplication and streamlined physical storage drives of 2 TB

Automated process management – Sepaton S2100-ES3 can automatically adjust performance, storage on-line, optimize device settings and load balances as needed.

Powerful consoles which enable one administrator to seamlessly monitor and manage large volumes of data.

Sepaton data encryption offers a reliable disaster backup system, being one of a kind in its ability to dedupe data at the byte level without affecting the overall backup performance. This is achieved using the DBeXstream™ deduplication platform which is ideal for large databases and does not interfere with the speeds of multiplexing and multi-streaming. Space gained through the deduplication process is continuously reclaimed, eliminating difficult scheduling decisions and freeing up capacity for immediate use during the backup process.
