FDRINSTANT non-disruptive INNOVATION backup with encryption protection support for EMC
Symmetrix DMX TimeFinder data replication options
EMC World 2006, Boston, MA - Innovation Data Processing, Little Falls, NJ; April 25, 2006: Coinciding with the EMC
World 2006 conference this week in Boston, INNOVATION Data Processing today is announcing non-disruptive backup
and encryption protection enhancements that enable the full suite of FDR business data protection, business
continuance and business resiliency solutions to leverage three EMC TimeFinder® data replication options for
EMC Symmetrix DMXTM storage systems.
In detail; INNOVATION Data Processing, is announcing FDRINSTANTBACKUP V5.4 Lvl 55, with non-disruptive
backup, instant restore, disk reorganization and FDRCRYPT encryption support for EMC TimeFinder/Mirror,
EMC TimeFinder/Clone and EMC TimeFinder/Snap Symmetrix DMX replication options, including support for
consistent split and data set SNAP operations.
"FDRINSTANTBACKUP, an optional enhancement, which enables FDR (FDRInstant), FDR/ABR (ABRInstant),
FDRSOS and FDRCOPY to employ EMC Symmetrix DMX hardware replication, now supports EMC's TimeFinder/Mirror,
TimeFinder/Clone and TimeFinder/Snap offerings, including consistent split and data set SNAP operations.
This support allows our customer's e-Commerce business applications to immediately continue processing
without disruption, as backups are taken and disk volumes reorganized. The FDRCRYPT enhancement extending
the FDR suite's encryption solution for business data protection to secure any copies of these non-disruptive
backups being sent off-site (e.g. disaster recovery tape and FTP backup files) against unauthorized access
with sophisticated cryptographic algorithms, including System Z AES hardware encryption. If one of our customers
has an IBM System Z processor as well Symmetrix DMX disk, FDRCRYPT will employ both hardware replication
and hardware encryption for even better performance improvements," explains Thomas J. Meehan, INNOVATION
Data Processing Vice President of Advance Technology.
FDRInstant and ABRInstant continue to support split Mirrors and concurrent BCVs for customers employing
high-performance EMC TimeFinder / Mirror.
FDRCOPY, as well as FDRInstant and ABRInstant full volume and incremental backup now support full-volume
and data set SNAP, for the highly functional EMC TimeFinder / Clone option.
FDRInstant and ABRInstant now support full volume and incremental backup from economical space-saving
EMC TimeFinder / Snap virtual disks
FDRInstant and ABRInstant now support EMC TimeFinder / Mirror consistent split for full-volume and
incremental backup as well as EMC TimeFinder / Clone and TimeFinder / SNAP consistent snap, i.e.
splitting multiple BCVs or SNAPPING multiple standard disks at a single point-in-time,
for consistent non-disruptive backup of multiple disk volumes.
