Online Data Protection & Remote Replication for Added Insurance

The Z-200 online data replicator offers two forms of data protection: (1) Online protection from server to Z-200 and (2) remote replication protection from Z-200 to remote Data Center or From Enterprise Branch Office to Enterprise Headquarters.

1. Local Protection Solution:
The Z-200 delivers convenient and reliable online data protection. From the example, the blue line represents normal offline backup from server to storage device, the red line represents online backup from server to Z-200. Backups to the Z-200 are configured via easy-to-use software installed on a management console. The Java-based software allows administrators to perform capacity management, set access reghts and retrieve data on demand. And the Z-200 backs up data faster than backing up data to tape devices.

2. Remote Replication Solutions:
The dual functionality as well as the simplicity and affordability of the Z-200 online data replicator make it highly suitable for the applications below:

Small-to-medium-sized business online data protection and remote replication
Enterprise workgroup online data protection and remote replication
Enterprise Branch to Enterprise Headquarters remote replication
Home office online data protection and remote replication

Key Features:
