Rapid business development, enterprise data explosion. At the same time, data security is being subjected to unprecedented threats, natural disasters, system failures, enterprise employee misuse and virus infection can lead to data destruction and loss. And the enterprise has regarded the key data as the basis of normal operation, once encounter data disaster, operation is bound to be paralyzed, the loss is incalculable. Therefore, enterprises not only need sufficient capacity to store data, but also need to implement secure backup of data and remote disaster tolerance to meet the increasing security requirements.

Enterprises can only increase storage capacity and backup mode, but the traditional storage and backup methods, because of the high cost and the technology is relatively complex, it is difficult to meet the corresponding data management and disaster recovery needs, so the use of cloud storage model to meet the enterprise data protection concept came into being. Through cloud storage, enterprises can back up data to the remote data center, so that the data will not be affected by local natural disasters or man-made disasters and damage, once a major local disaster, enterprises can be through the cloud storage system for rapid data recovery, to resolve data loss and remote disaster tolerance problem, Easily realize the storage and management of massive information.

At present, cloud storage is becoming one of the trends of the global storage industry, and the application scope of cloud storage products is expanding. After a long time of cloud storage products and application of exploration practice, UIT (Innovation Division Storage Technology Co., Ltd.) that the cloud storage requirements are universal, but ça, then, there is no unified cloud storage architecture, can easily meet the needs of thousands of personalized? From this point of view, UIT has introduced an innovative flexible system architecture, which lays a solid foundation for the popularization of cloud storage technology and programs. Based on this architecture, UIT introduces a new disk-disk-Cloud (D2D2C) application model that comprehensively changes the enterprise's status in the area of data security backup and remote disaster recovery.

D2D2C Cloud client application Mode to change data security

At present, the cloud storage service provided by domestic and foreign storage vendors is simply to provide users with online data backup, the enterprise data directly back to the cloud storage data center. In this connection, the technology of cloud storage, uit that the disk-disk-Cloud (D2D2C) client application model, the model of data from local disk to cloud storage local client system (D2D2C device) to cloud storage data center, will become a new mode of enterprise business security in cloud storage era. For enterprise cloud storage users, the D2D2C device can be used as a target device for data backup, as well as a local client for cloud storage and a buffer for data backup to cloud storage. Users do not have to change the original storage backup architecture, only to backup the data to the D2D2C device, the D2D2C device will automatically back up the data to the cloud storage data center According to the user's predetermined strategy, helping users to easily realize the data disaster.

The introduction of D2D2C equipment has obvious advantages. First of all, it can provide users with faster transmission speed, users in the LAN to backup data to D2D2C devices, than directly through the Internet backup to remote data center faster and more convenient. Subsequently, the D2D2C device will automatically transfer data to the data center at the right time, such as when the business is not busy, according to the user's previously set backup strategy. This not only saves the network bandwidth for the user, but also simplifies the user operation and improves the efficiency of data backup.

In addition, D2D2C mode should be able to provide users with higher security performance, the user's key data to save a local, and in the Remote Data center to save a copy of local remote dual data protection. At the same time, users can also according to their own needs, arbitrarily adjust the backup strategy of D2D2C devices, such as the data can be retained for one months, or when the data is not commonly used, and then migrated to the remote data center. This allows users to read commonly used data locally, and to back up infrequently used data to a data center, with more flexibility in data management.

Enterprises use D2D2C model to reduce disaster recovery threshold effectively

The D2D2C data protection model can also be applied to enterprise internal data protection with multiple branch offices. For large enterprises with branch offices all over the world, the branch offices can easily backup data to the corporate headquarters or centralized data centers by simply configuring a D2D2C backup device locally, thereby improving storage security and data disaster preparedness. At the same time, the D2D2C mode can realize data disaster protection across data center, and realize remote disaster tolerance among each data center to realize multiple protection of enterprise data.

For small and medium-sized enterprises, the existing cloud storage solutions, almost all for large enterprises prepared, high cost, technical complexity, so that SMEs can only hope that "cloud" sigh. But D2D2C solutions make cloud storage less costly, and businesses can buy the capacity of the cloud storage datacenter on demand, and how much data is stored to pay for the cost of the cloud storage data center, without the need to establish a data center. Compared with the self-built data center, users can effectively inhibit the increase in costs, and expand their capacity on demand, which allows SMEs to truly enter the "cloud" in the overall increase in investment return.

In the cloud storage mode, enterprises need to remote data backup to the cloud storage data center, but the massive data transmission to the enterprise network bandwidth also produced a great pressure, often bandwidth is caused by remote backup data transmission efficiency is not high bottleneck. Thus, in order to improve storage efficiency, the D2D2C Enterprise cloud storage device must have the duplicate data deletion function, guaranteed that the data will automatically carry on the duplicate data deletion in the D2D2C device before backing up to the cloud storage data center. This greatly saves the bandwidth of the transmission, allowing the data to be backed up to the data center faster and in less time. In addition, the data de-duplication technology also greatly saves the space of the cloud storage data center, enhances the user's space utilization, and effectively helps the enterprise to reduce the overall cost of ownership.

As a handful of vendors with proprietary IP and core technologies for cloud storage development, UIT is committed to combining applications with storage to drive businesses to transform from using storage devices to using storage services. In the future, Uit will be in the core intellectual property, perfect research and development system, a high level of development team based on the launch of the D2D2C functional modules of the enterprise cloud storage equipment, with innovative functionality and its own strong research and development capabilities to help enterprises effectively manage and store data, so that a large number of information for enterprises to create greater value.
