Total Cost of Ownership
When assessing your backup infrastructure, it’s important to consider the total cost of ownership.
Reducing Your Direct Costs:
- Lowering media expenses
- Consolidating communication lines and infrastructure
- Calculating environmental costs (power, cooling, footprint)
- Evaluating physical hardware costs
- Decreasing staffing while enhancing productivity
Reducing Indirect Costs:
- Decreasing backup costs and network bandwidth
- Automating data management
- Restoring latency
- Lowering downtime from existing systems
The Best of Disk and Tape Brings It All Together
The right balance of technologies can help you minimise TCO and achieve a rapid payback. By integrating Quantum’s DXi disk-based deduplication for short-term retention and Scalar® iLayer tape libraries for your long-term backup and archiving strategy, you ensure rapid access to the most likely restores, eliminate storing of costly redundant data, and cost-effectively retain older data for disaster recovery and compliance. Plus, simplified management across the tiers cuts down on costly administration time.
