Data Protection
“Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong.”
Data Protection
Deadly Sin #1:
Focus on backup, not recovery
Data Protection
Instead, shift the focus onto recovery
Know for sure that your backup file is completely recoverable.

Recovery is all that matters.
1 in 5 recovery jobs fail to meet their recovery SLAs1
Use automated recovery verification technology.
Data Protection
Deadly Sin #2:
Treat all data equally.
Data Protection
Instead, classify data and applications
Not all data has the same criticality and frequency of change
If lost or unavailable or unavailable—for even short periods of time— damage will
occur
Mission Critical
Is vital to the daily
operations of the business

Data Protection
Deadly Sin #3:
Fail to understand your organization’s tolerance for data loss and downtime.
Data Protection
• Recovery Time Objective (RTO)– The tolerable amount of time elapsed between a loss or disaster
and the restoration of business operations.– It is the time required to physically recover the data or application
and have it ready for use
• Recovery Point Objective (RPO)– The point in time since the last backup – For example, if you recover a file that was backed up yesterday
then your recovery point is one day
Instead, solicit feedback from cross-functional groups outside of ITAlign recovery objectives to your organization’s business goals
Data Protection
Deadly Sin #4:
Believe one approach fits all.
Data Protection
Instead, think tiered recovery
Apply the right approaches to meet your requirements

Classifying Your Data/Applications
• Back up to tape• Archive data
• RTO 6-24 Hours• RPO 2-12 Hours
• Some regulations
• RTO < 5 Minutes• RPO < 5

• Strict regulations
Data Protection
Deadly Sin #5:
Only store one copy of your backup data—onsite.
Data Protection
• How will you get your data offsite?– Tape– Replication– Clustering
• Where should you send your data?– Cold DR Site– Warm DR Site– Hot DR Site
Instead, establish an offsite DR strategyWill you be able to meet your recovery SLAs in the event of a site disaster?
Data Protection
Deadly Sin #6:
Store too much backup data, for far too long.
Data Protection
Instead, optimize data retention
Reduce costs and boost performance
Save on costs by employing D2D2T, archiving older data to less expensive storage
Employ deduplication to reduce backup storage footprint.
Data Protection
Deadly Sin #7:
Think you’re done after you test your plan.
Data Protection
Test… Test Again… And Test Yet Again
Instead, continually test and update your plan.
Data Protection
1. Focus on recovery
2. Classify your data and applications
3. Solicit feedback from cross-functional groups outside of IT
4. Think tiered recovery
5. Establish an offsite DR strategy
6. Optimize data retention
7. Continually test and update your data protection plan
Bare Metal Recovery (BMR)Recap: Avoid the 7 deadly sins
Data Protection
Backup and recovery methods available
Data Protection
• Backs up data stored on application, database, and file server data
• Schedule backups and create policies– Run full, incremental, and differential backups
• Back up to tape or disk
• Typically uses server/client architecture
Traditional backup and recovery
The “Tried & True”
Data Protection
• Continuously captures all changes on the protected server
• Eliminates backup windows
• Super granular recovery points—restore to practically any point in time
• Fast recovery of data
• Excellent if you:– Can’t afford prolonged downtime– Can’t afford to lose mission-critical data
Continuous data protection (CDP)
Ideal for “mission-critical” application data
Data Protection
• Gain redundancy by sending a copy of data from one source to a target
• Used for improved reliability, fault-tolerance and/or ensured accessibility
• Replication over the WAN ensures disaster recovery
• Different from “backup” because replicas are frequently updated and quickly lose any historical state
Bare Metal Recovery (BMR)Replication
Minimize network traffic using WAN-optimization techniques
Data Protection
Bare Metal Recovery (BMR)Data deduplication
First Full Backup Daily Backup
Daily Backup
Second Full Backup
• The process of examining a data set or byte stream at the sub-file level and storing and/or sending only unique data.
• Duplicate data segments are replaced with a pointer to the first occurrence of the data
Reduce your backup storage footprint by 90-95%
