Shifting data center
requirements, sophisticated security attacks such as ransomware, and explosive
data growth are forcing today’s IT organizations to rethink backup and recovery
processes, strategies, and infrastructure. Organizations require software
solutions that help them manage storage capacity, streamline backup
functionalities, as well as automatically build-in disaster recovery in the
instance of a breach. According to an IDC study, the average total cost of
unplanned application downtime is $1.25 billion to $2.5 billion per year, and
the average cost of infrastructure failure per hour is $100,000.[1]

“IT managers are under
pressure to ensure more secure backup and faster recovery to reduce the
downtime that leads to higher costs and risk,” said Stephen Spellicy, VP
product management, Information Management & Governance, HPE Software. “The
new innovations around the HPE Adaptive Backup and Recovery Suite enable IT
staff to mitigate operational concerns, while providing streamlined processes,
automation, and secure communications to better managing today’s digital
environments.”

HPE Data Protector is
an enterprise-class solution that securely centralizes and standardizes backup
and recovery management across thousands of clients, repositories, platforms
and locations. The flexible architecture provides scalability up to Petabytes
of data and trillions of unique files across both physical and virtual
environments. Data Protector ensures the backup environment is secure by
providing centralized communication, simplifying configuration through port
consolidation, and automating application and disaster recovery.
