SonicWall 3440i Continuous Data Protection Backup and Recovery
Theft, viruses, system crashes, and misplaced or stolen backup tapes are driving demand for reliable, disk-based backup solutions. In fact, business owners are estimated to spend $6.7 billion in 2010 on data protection technologies, up 30% from 2005.
SonicWALL Backup & Recovery solutions provide automatic, real-time data backup for servers, laptops and PCs. The solution backs up files first locally to ensure data can be recovered instantly from any previous point in time. It also includes hands-free, automatic offsite capabilities to protect businesses against disasters. Together, the automatic, hassle-free local and offsite capabilities solve the pains related to existing backup systems. Importantly, the CDP series of products back up only block level differences within each file, and then compresses them so the network is not impacted or compromised. Also, central management and remote administration features allow IT administrators to operate efficiently and effectively.

Detailed Features
Application
Tapeless, Enterprise-level Data Protection Without the Price Tag
Fast recovery time objectives and backup tape performance problems are driving demand for high-speed disk-based backup. CDP provides enterprise-class features such as continuous data protection, remote management and hands-free offsite backup - without enterprise-class cost.
SonicWALL CDP for Your Business
CDP was developed specifically with the small-to-medium business in mind - there are no tapes or disks to manage and the appliance includes simple, centralized administration. With the highest standards of reliability, data integrity and security, CDP protects your business, not just your data.
If You're Using Tape Backup
Tape backup systems are unreliable and prone to human error. Data recovery from backup tapes fail more than 50% of the time, and can be up to 400x slower than recovering data from a disk. Most taxing is the cost and effort it takes to administer tape backup systems - rotating tapes, checking them and transporting them offsite. Why use tape backup when there is CDP?
A Closer Look
Features
- Local Continuous Data Protection. A CDP agent sits at the kernel
level to intercept data between the database and disk using a file system
filter driver. This allows any new or changed information on a network machine
to be detected and backed up to CDP. Instead of backing up at time-based intervals,
CDP provides for real-time, hands-free backup.
- Minimal CPU Usage.
The CDP agent is programmed in C++ and requires less than 2MB of memory. The
agent has an undetectable impact on network machines unlike other types of
solutions that impact the productivity of employees because they slow down
or freeze computers.
- Open File Backup.
The CDP agent's file system filter driver enables new or changed data to be
backed up while the file is open. This feature dramatically decreases the
risk of data loss because information is protected as it is created instead
of waiting until the file is closed and a backup cycle is initiated.
- Incremental Backup.
CDP initiates a full initial backup of marked files, and only data that has
been created or modified from that point are backed up. These changes are
sent to CDP and saved in a unique database created for each specific file.
There is tremendous disk utilization efficiency with this feature.
- Instant Recovery and Versioning.
Drawing from the database of file changes used by the incremental backup feature
allows specific versions of each file to be re-created according to previous
points in time. Users are served a catalogue of previous versions and simply
click on which one(s) that are to be recovered. These features empower users
and save system administrators time.
- Hands-Free Offsite Backup.
An on-site CDP can be configured to send backup data to a specific offsite
storage vault without any user intervention to protect data against disasters
like theft and fire. You can refine offsite policies at the administrative
level, enabling only certain users or certain types of files, to be migrated
offsite. Setting policies ensures your offsite capacity will be used most
effectively.
- The Adaptive Backup Engine.
ABE resides within CDP, enabling the solution to recognize network usage and
Internet traffic patterns. Every time there is an opportunity, CDP will initiate
a migration session and send encrypted data to a secure co-location facility.
This network throttling feature enables the offsite portion of CDP to be non-invasive
when utilized during working hours.
- Instant Recovery and Versioning.
Drawing from the database of file changes used by the incremental backup
feature allows specific versions of each file to be re-created according to
previous points in time. Users are served a catalog of previous versions and
simply click on which one(s) that are to be recovered. These features empower
users and save system administrators time and increase productivity.
- Flexible Policies.
Administrators can give users the ability to locate, view, retrieve or otherwise
manipulate data based on the level of permissions they have. Policies can
also be set at the file type, directory or application levels to ensure data
is added (or excluded) for backup.

What You Should Know

What is RAID?
RAID is an acronym first defined back in 1987 to describe a redundant array of
inexpensive disks, a technology that allowed computer users to achieve high
levels of storage reliability from low-cost PC hard disk drives, via the
technique of arranging the devices into an array for fail-safe redundancy.
"RAID" is now used as an umbrella term for computer data storage schemes that
can divide and replicate data among multiple hard disk drives. The different
schemes/architectures are named by the word RAID followed by a number, as in
RAID 0, RAID 1, etc. RAID's various designs involve two key elements: increased
data reliability or increased input/output performance. When multiple physical
disks are set up to use RAID technology, they are said to be in a RAID array.
This array distributes data across multiple disks, but the array is seen by the
computer user and operating system as one single disk. RAID can be set up to
serve several different purposes.
Organizing disks into a redundant array decreases the total usable storage
capacity. For instance, a 2-disk RAID 1 array loses half of the total capacity
that would have otherwise been available using both disks independently, and a
RAID 5 array with several disks loses the capacity of one whole disk. Other
types of RAID arrays are arranged so that they are faster to write to and read
from than a single disk.
There are various combinations of these
configurations giving different trade-offs and benefits of protection against
data loss, capacity, and speed. RAID levels 0, 1, and 5 are the most commonly
found, and cover most of the typical requirements.
- RAID 0 (striped disks) distributes data
across several disks in a way that gives improved speed at any given instant. If
one disk fails, however, all of the data on the array will be lost, as there is
neither parity nor mirroring.
- RAID 1 mirrors the contents of the
disks, making a 1:1 (1 to 1) ratio real-time backup. The contents of each disk
in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array.
- RAID 3 uses a striped set with
dedicated parity or bit interleaved parity or byte level parity. This
mechanism provides fault tolerance similar to RAID 5. However, because the strip
across the disks is a lot smaller than a file system block, reads and writes to
the array perform like a single drive with a high linear write performance. If
one drive fails, the performance doesn't change.
- RAID 5 (striped disks with parity)
combines three or more disks in a way that protects against data loss of any one
disk. The storage capacity of the array is reduced by the capacity of the one
disk (all disks are of equal size).
- RAID 6 (striped disks with dual parity)
can recover from the loss of two disks.
- RAID 10 (or 1+0) uses both striping and
mirroring. ("01" or "0+1" is sometimes distinguished from "10" or "1+0": a
striped set of mirrored subsets and a mirrored set of striped subsets are both
valid, but distinct, configurations.)
