Virtual Tape Library
This is an economical and effective solution, which uses the tape enhancing the reliability, the speed and the applicability of the backup. It provides the SAN and DAS environments with the wide data protection, making it easier for backing up from the traditional tape backup mode to the virtual tape, meanwhile it provides the competence for executing the sustaining backup based on the tape. Practical business benefits of VTL ...

As the reduction of the IT budget day by day at present, the administrators and other professional IT personnel are all actively seeking how to obtain the maximum benefits in the investment for the current basic structure for the storage. This kind of the reality and the backup window that is continuously being shortened, and the data growth that is gradually being upgraded and the strong requirements for the economical and effective sustaining commercial solution with the high reliability will push the utilization of the internal resource to the ultimate.
Solution:
The virtual tape library (VTL) solution in Orientation Company makes IPStor?that has been rewarded with the prizes for many times as the core technology, and while enhancing the reliability of the backup operation and improving the speed of the recovery, it integrates the management for the backup resource.
The Unique virtual tape library (VTL) solution in Orientation Company can simulate the high-speed disk in the industrial standard into the virtual tape machine and the tape library to be supplied to the backup server on the iSCSI / IP or FC SAN structures, without the need to change the configuration in the current backup software, therefore it can guarantee that the investment for the backup strategy is continuous and effective, and the knowledge on the operation in the IT employees will not be wasted. Best backup performance and reliability
Through simulating the disk into the tape library in the industrial standard, the VTL in Orientation Company has improved the speed and the reliability of the current application software for the backup by a third party.
The VTL in Orientation Company uses the fiber channel (FC) or the IP protocol, at the very high speed, transmitting the data to the virtual tape based on the disk and recovering the data from the virtual tape based on the disk. Furthermore, through eliminating the failures in the mechanical hand and the medium errors on the physical tape, the VTL in Orientation Company makes its reliability reach the best effect, improving the success rates of the backup and the recovery.
The applicability and the performance grid are the key problems concerned by the IT practicers, and the VTL solution in Orientation Company adopts the I/O load balance perceived by the storage controller and uses the functions of the transparent failure switch and the failure recovery in the large-scale digit group in the intelligent storage system, which will benefit the customers lot. The customer can also configure the two sets of the special VTL managers into the duplex aggregate, thus to exert the applicability of the service to the maximum. Reduce the equipment & management costs in the bac
The inhered competence of the VTL in Orientation Company is to aggregate and supply the backup resource and the virtual tape machine/tape library through the FC or the IP SAN, and based on this, this kind of the unique solution can also follow the strategy to provide a new level of the central management through the option of the incremental reproduction based on IP, where the reproduction option will reproduce the tape through the configuration of the point to point or the multi to one in the IP. Through making the customer use the rerolling or the quick shot that has been loaded, the VTL in Orientation Company triggers the recovery of the whole disk or the file, thus remarkably reducing the administration expenses that would be consumed in the IT managers and employees in the past. The VTL in Orientation Company also has eliminated the need for the reliance on the option of the share for the tape library, thus to coordinate the access for the FC tape machine/tape library. Provide the seamless integration
The interoperability test for the solutions of the hardware and the software leading in the industry continuously carried out by Orientation Company has ensured that the VTL can be seamlessly integrated into the current IT environment, meanwhile it has optimized the integration performance and functions in the VTL and other technologies used by the customers in Orientation at present. Further comprehend how to use the VTL
1) Reproduction and conveyance of the tape

2) Backup for the remote office location
 TCO and ROI
Minimization of the total cost in the customer
- Through FC or IP, centrally supply the virtual tape/tape library based on the disk
- Through the reproduction based on IP, promote the conveyance of the tape
- The seamless integration with the current backup structure
- Through the opposite reproduction, simply the backup integration
- Provide the current backup server with the plug-and-play installation means, without the need for the setup again
- The system administrator is allowed to use the NDMP protocol to protect the NAS equipment.
Maximization of the performance and the investment return
- Fully making use of the FC and the IP SAN, make the backup software be able to induce or educe the data from the virtual tape based on the disk at the very high speed
- In the operation process for the backup/the recovery, the medium and mechanical failures are eliminated
- Through the configuration structure of the duplex aggregate, maximize the applicability of the service
- Fully making use of the functions for the failure switch and the failure recovery in the intelligent storage controller leading in the industry, maximize the applicability and the reliability.
- The virtual tape based on SAN makes the third-party backup software be able to quickly recover the data, and reduce the time for stopping the machine.
- Optimize the investment and the utilization for the current backup environment
