HPE StoreOnce vs. Veritas NetBackup Appliance

If you are looking for a backup infrastructure which is efficient and compatible for both file system and block level backup, then HPE StoreOnce is a great choice. It's easy to configure and easy to manage. We didn't have to hire a separate storage expert to set up StoreOnce for us. The HPE team helped our system admins and it was a easy to configure.

• We use Veeam Backup Server software to manage our backups on HPE StoreOnce.

My team who are currently administering HPE StoreOnce do not come from a storage background. We still didn't had to struggle much configuring and using HPE StoreOnce. Of course, HPE team was very helpful in smooth technology transition. For critical errors, we already have phone home feature enabled and HPE support team has been excellent and their response time in dealing with technical errors/incidents.

It has been efficient over the years that we acquired it.

Some of our staff have worked with Baracuda, so it was a recommended product. But after our evaluation, we decided to use StoreOnce because of the types of backup, ease of administration, and cost savings.

1) Storage: Reduce storage cost by replacing with Veritas intelligent deduplication.

2) Space

Save valuable floor space by combining both the backup server and deduplication storage into one appliance.

3) Power and Cooling

As an ENERGY STAR compliant backup appliance, the NetBackup 5330 reduces floor space and power consumption, letting you to

do more with your IT budget.

4) Robust Greater performance compared to the NetBackup 5230: Up to 3X faster backup, 5.8X faster recovery, and 4.9X faster replication. 5) Greater density

Delivers more TB per rack unit (RU) which reduces floor space requirements and lowers power and cooling costs.

6) Intelligent end-to-end deduplication

Reduces the size of backups by up to 50 times and network bandwidth utilization by up to 99 percent, so you can backup and replicate faster.

7) Flexible deduplication options

Deduplication at source, media server, or target; inline or post-process.

• While not completely eliminating tape, it has relegated the use of tape to monthly and annual backups for compliance. It has reduced the recurring expense of tape media.
• It has increased the length of the retention period because of its efficiency in storing backups.
• The online backup repositories are now replicated to the secondary datacenter, a capability not possible with tapes.

Incentivized

• Improved operational efficiency.
