EMC redefines Data Protection Strategy with Array of New Products

EMC Corporation has announced a broad array of new hardware and software products that enable customers to deploy new Protection  Storage Architectures that address today’s and tomorrow’s data protection challenges. The new products cut across the company’s market- leading Data Domain, Avamar, NetWorker and Mozy product lines.

With its latest announcement, EMC is delivering a full range of capabilities that enable backup teams to transform from the chaos of the accidental architecture to a more effective Protection Storage Architecture that meets the demands of the business.
 
Guy Churchward, President, EMC Backup Recovery Systems Division, said, Deployment of a Protection Storage Architecture, which arrests the proliferation of the ‘accidental architectures’ we talk so much about, is the best strategy for ensuring effective data protection. Accidental architectures an outgrowth of users addressing individual data protection challenges reactively as they arise, and applying costly silo’d or ‘one-size-fits-all’ products and solutions that become difficult to manage, optimize and pay for. The products we’ve announced today pave the way for our customers to consolidate their data protection strategy and infrastructure, and enable them to proactively prepare for the data protection challenges that accompany transformational IT initiatives.

All new EMC data protection products will be generally available in the third quarter of 2013 and will also be available within VSPEX Proven Infrastructures in the same timeframe.
