The Quantum DXi8500 leverages data deduplication to reduce disk and network bandwidth requirements by 90% or more, lowering
disk backup costs and making WAN replication a practical DR tool. Designed for data centers and consolidated backup
environments, the Quantum DXi8500 gives users a choice of deduplication policies and replication strategies and allows them to
automate the integration of tape into their disk backup strategy to combine near-term protection and long-term retention in a single
system. With up to 320TB usable capacity and 8TB/hr ingest, the DXi8500’s policy-based deduplication gives users the ability to
choose different deduplication approaches for different datasets, providing optimal value in the widest range of data protection
environments.
The Quantum DXi8500 supports VTL (Fibre Channel) and NAS (CIFS and NFS) presentations, and can be linked by replication to other disk backup systems leveraging Quantum’s deduplication software, allowing it to anchor an enterprise-wide data protection strategy that includes both virtual and physical servers. The Quantum DXi8500 reduces costs and improves data protection by streamlining the management of multi-site, multi-tier backup and DR strategies through advanced features, flexible management, and close integration with backup applications, including Symantec™’s Open Storage Initiative.
The DXi8500 uses Quantum’s patented data deduplication technology to dramatically increase the role that disk can play protecting both virtual and physical servers. With DXi®-Series solutions, users can reduce capacity requirements for disk by 90% or more
and make WAN-based remote replication of backup data a practical tool for disaster recovery protection. This advantage allows IT departments to cost-effectively retain months of backup data on disk for faster, more reliable restores and more data recovery
points. Quantum’s innovative implementation of this core technology means that users do not have to compromise on performance to take advantage of extended retention capability. The DXi-Series policy-based deduplication option gives users the ability to
choose different deduplication approaches for different data sets, providing businessbenefits for the widest possible range of data protection environments.

DIRECT TAPE CREATION
Direct tape creation—physical tape can be written in background over a dedicated Fibre Channel connection without using media server or backup SAN. For VTL interface, the function maintains barcode integrity between virtual and physical tapes and is compatible with backup software direct to tape commands (e.g., Backup Exec, NetBackup, EMC Networker, Oracle Secure Backup, and Atempo TimeNavigator). Shadow tape creation supported for automated creation of physical media with applications, including Bakbone NetVault, CA ARCserve, CommVault Galaxy, HP Data Protector, IBM TSM, and Symantec BackupExec. DXi7500 units also support direct to tape operation under Symantec’s OST
initiative—creating tape copies directly from OST LSU data without using a media server to move data but under NBU control (NetBackup 6.5.4 and later). OST direct tape creation is also compatible with application aware replication.

Close integration with backup applications reduces complexity and
improves protection. The DXi8500 writes data directly from disk to a tape
library, bypassing the media server. The process is controlledand media is
cataloged by the backup application.
DXi Accent software accelerates backup over networks with limited
bandwidth by moving part of the deduplication process to the media server
in a collaborative, hybrid operation. When DXi Accent is enabled, only
unique blocks are moved over the network to the appliance. Replication
and direct tape creation integrate automated DR protection and low cost
long-term data retention.
