This ESG Lab Validation report documents the results of hands-on testing of local, remote, and application protection components of the EMC VNX Total Protection Pack, which consists of RecoverPoint/SE, Replication Manager, and Data Protection Advisor for Replication Analysis.
ESG Lab evaluated both replication and consolidated management capabilities at an EMC lab in Hopkinton, Massachusetts.
ESG recently asked IT professionals in North America and Western Europe about their top storage spending priorities over the next 12-18 months. Their responses make clear the importance of data protection: the top two priorities were backup and recovery solutions (36%) and data replication for off-site disaster recovery (24%). Also high on the list was improving storage management software tools (21%). Given the financial damage that can occur in a data loss event, the focus on data protection makes sense.
