Automated tiered storage and continuous snapshot technologies bring storage efficiency and performance to a new level. Watch now to see how combining the two features optimizes data placement and hear best practices for configuring tiering profiles and snapshot schedules for long-term results. 

This white paper discusses eight must have Dell Compellent technologies that combine to create new levels of efficiency and flexibility while cutting cost now and in the future. 

This paper shows the value of combining Oracle software with Intel Xeon processors on Dell PowerEdge servers. It begins with an overview of the collaboration that created these synergies, before detailing the major areas where they are manifest to end-customers: intelligent performance, automated energy efficiency, and flexible virtualization. 

Most organizations strive for efficiency because it ties to cost savings and better performance, while helping to anchor competitive advantages. However, improving efficiency requires organizations to continually seek new methods of managing increasingly complex business processes. 

In this paper you will learn some of the critical ways in which tiered storage solutions enable organizations to cut their total cost of storage and improve their long-term total cost of ownership.

This paper examines the impact of de-duplication in a disk-to-disk-to-tape (D2D2T) backup and recovery environment. 

Putting to rest many of the claims that tape has passed its prime, this Clipper Note from The Clipper Group confirms that tape can be an important cost-saving storage technology for long-term archiving of big files in a tiered storage architecture.  

This tutorial will cover the latest developments in tape storage systems and review the major differences between backup software vs. archiving software. The benefits of tape storage systems, including long-term data archiving will also be discussed.
