Dell EqualLogic replication is designed for efficient operations between disaster recovery locations. However, WAN bandwidth, latency and quality challenges can prevent replication from performing at its true potential. When these challenges exist, WAN optimization is recommended to boost replication performance and minimize the risk of data loss. Optimizing WAN throughput specifically for replication traffic can be critical for both achieving target performance levels for both multi-site backup and disaster recovery operations.
Dell partnered with Silver Peak to deliver a proven solution for offsite data protection and centralized backup. With the combined Dell and Silver Peak solutions, enterprises can protect more data across longer distances, while leveraging cost effective shared WAN technologies to lower ongoing IT costs.
