WHY Enterprise Data as a Service?

• Development, QA, UAT, DBA and Support teams wait for days or weeks to get data to test against;
• Backups for large databases and applications don’t complete in the backup window;
• Recovering applications from outages or corruption takes too long and miss SLAs;
• Cloud-based initiatives are derailed because it’s too hard to move large data sets;
• Storage costs sprawl out of control;
• Too many point tools cause high IT costs and operational complexity (backup, snapshots, array replication, host replication, deduplication appliances and software, cloning…); and
• Teams hoard copies of old data, creating compliance and security risks.

What Can Enterprise Data as a Service Do For Me?

• For Backup, Disaster Recovery (DR) and Long-term data retention (vaulting),
• For Test Data Management (TDM) for application development or DevOps,
• For Analytics, BI or Data Warehousing, or
• For migrating data and workloads between infrastructure resources.
• Satisfy all of the above requirements with one platform, one license, whether it’s used in multiple public clouds, private data centers, remote offices or an MSP site.

What Makes Actifio Different?

• Agile – Providing instant access to data, anywhere,
• Resilient – With data protection built right in, instead of bolted on,
• Independent – Meaning no vendor lock-in, on the box or in the cloud,
• Secure – Hardened for enterprise security, governance, and
• Scalable – From a single application to a global enterprise.

Captures application-consistent data in an incremental-forever fashion, at the block level, in native format, according to SLAs set by the admin, and creates a golden master copy. The system also automatically synthesizes virtual full copies from the golden copy plus incremental changes, so that point-in-time images are ready for use at any time.

Manages the lifecycle of that application data according to its SLA. That SLA defines how often to capture incremental changes from production, where to store the data, when to deduplicate it, when and how to replicate it, when it is to be masked and encrypted for security purposes, who can access it, and how long it is to be retained.

Lets you Use that data for multiple applications, for example to provision unlimited virtual copies for application development and testing, or analytics, to rapidly recover a 30 TB database, to restore the business from discrete events like a site failure, application migration, or data center consolidation.
