Substantiation (as of 03/18/2015) Data Protection & Information Management 1. VM LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT Manage the complete VM lifecycle from provisioning and monitoring to backup and replication to VM archiving and retirement. • EMC supports Virtual Server protection through Avamar, but Avamar only provides for some extended restore capabilities such as VM power-on, datastore browsing, but not VM-renaming. There is no capability to identify new VM’s by affinity or filter VM’s from backup. EMC cannot provide VM archiving capabilities. (EMC® Avamar® 7.1 for VMware, User Guide, P/N 3002-000-839, REV 01) • Symantec supports Virtual server protection but Symantec lacks vCD integration and Symantec cannot provide VM archiving through NBU or Enterprise Vault. (Symantec NetBackup™ for VMware ­Administrator’s Guide, Release 7.6) 2. DEDUPLICATION RESILIENCY WITH PARALLEL DEDUPLICATION Inexpensively delivers software load balancing and resiliency to complement hardware availability. • EMC deduplication is provided by Data Domain deduplication appliances. The Data Domain controller can be a single point of failure in an environment. The DD4200/4500/7200 and DD990 can have an additional controller to provide resiliency, at a significant cost. EMC can provide deduplicated replication but only between like Avamar or Data Domain systems with significant additional cost. • For NetBackup 7.6 appliances, the maximum deduplication capacity is 229TBs or the maximum capacity of the appliance. (Symantec NetBackup™ Deduplication Guide, UNIX, Windows, Linux Release 7.6). However, deduplication within each appliance is supported, but deduplication across appliances is not supported. 3. SIMPANA ONEPASS™ SINGLE PASS BACKUP, FILE ARCHIVING AND REPORTING Saves time, money and resources. • EMC backup and archiving processes are delivered through separate products (Avamar & Data Domain and SourceOne). Each performs a separate pass of the data. EMC Networker can archive file system data as a data set directly, but this also requires a separate pass. • Symantec backup and archiving processes are delivered through separate products (NetBackup and Enterprise Vault). Each performs a separate pass of the data. NBU can archive file system data as a data set directly, but this also requires a separate pass. 4. ENDPOINT BACKUP Reduce workload with auto-discover/auto-install of backup agents, and end-user access capability. • EMC recommends; When deploying Avamar Desktop/Laptop to a location with existing Avamar servers, use an additional Avamar grid to support the desktop and laptop clients. (EMC® Avamar® 7.1, ­ Operational Best Practices, P/N 302-000-829, REV 01, p. 68). Avamar does not provide mobile access. EMC also offers EMC Mozy for desktop/laptop protection. • Symantec provides the Symantec Desktop/Laptop Option™. This is a separate product from NetBackup which has a unique server, database and administration console. (Symantec Desktop and Laptop Option™ version 7.6, Administrator’s Guide, For Windows) 5. ENCRYPTION Protected At-Rest and In-Flight with FIPS140-2 NIST certification. • EMC can provide at-rest and in-flight encryption but is not FIPS 140-2 certified by NIST. • Symantec can provide at-rest and in-flight encryption but is not FIPS 140-2 certified by NIST. 6. EXTENDED MODE Retain data for long periods for compliance and governance. • Symantec appliance does not provide for lower cost extended mode storage drawers. 7. HETEROGENEOUS HARDWARE ARRAY SNAPSHOT MANAGEMENT Improve RTO/RPO and offload backup processing from production hosts. • EMC Avamar and Data Domain appliances do not support hardware array snapshot management. EMC provides persistent Snapshot integration in NetWorker with the addition of EMC Snapshot Manager or EMC Replication Manager options. Snapshot Manager and Replication Manager are limited to EMC and NetApp FAS storage hardware. (EMC NetWorker Software Compatibility Guide, June 3, 2014). Replication Manager has GUI integration with NetWorker but requires a separate infrastructure and database. (EMC Replication Manager Version 5.5.1, Administrator’s Guide. P/N 302-000-664, REV 01) • Symantec introduced Replication Director in NBU version 7.5. Replication Director 7.6 supports file system snapshots, VMware snapshots for file systems, Exchange and SQL and Oracle snapshots on physical machines on NetApp FAS and Symantec FileStore only as of November 2013. Replication Director recently added support for EMC VNX & Celerra storage systems, but only provides NAS support, and the following policy types: Standard, MS-Windows, NDMP, VMware, and Oracle for EMC. (NetBackup 7.6 Administrator’s Guide for Windows, Volume I) (NetBackup 7.6.1.1 Release Notes).Symantec Snapshot Client supports older arrays, but lacks support for newer arrays such as HP 3Par, IBM SVC, XIV and N-series, Hitachi VSP, EMC Celerra, VNX, Clariion CX4 and Dell Arrays. (NetBackup 7 Snapshot Client Compatibility List, 2011-07-08) 8. EMAIL ARCHIVING Email archiving with stubs for end-user recovery. • EMC can provide email archiving through a separate product. EMC SourceOne is a separate product from Avamar or Data Domain with no integration. (EMC SourceOne Email Management Version 6.8 Installation Guide, 300-013-684, REV A01) • Symantec NetBackup provides integrated archiving for file-systems, but requires Symantec Enterprise Vault for eMail and SharePoint archiving. (Symantec NetBackup™ Administrator’s Guide, Volume I, Windows, Release 7.6) 9. SEARCH AND EDISCOVERY Total visibility of data across archive and backup. • EMC provides EMC SourceOne Discovery Manager for e-Discovery on archive data only. This is a separate product which is OEM’d from Stored IQ. • Symantec has to leverage Enterprise Vault or ClearWell for eDiscovery. Symantec Enterprise Vault Discovery Accelerator collects information resident in archived data, but Symantec requires a separate product, Clearwell Identification & Collection Module for collection of information from other sources in the environment. (Symantec Discovery Accelerator™ Installation Guide 10.0) (Symantec Enterprise Vault™ 11.0 Documentation http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=DOC6634) 10. ENDPOINT DATA PROTECTION Mitigate risk with data loss prevention and compliance/eDiscovery; drive productivity with secure file sharing. • EMC recommends; When deploying Avamar Desktop/Laptop to a location with existing Avamar servers, use an additional Avamar grid to support the desktop and laptop clients. (EMC® Avamar® 7.1, Operational Best Practices, P/N 302-000-829, REV 01, p. 68). Avamar does not provide mobile access. EMC also offers EMC Mozy for desktop/laptop protection which is a separate product with separate management and infrastructure. EMC Mozy can provide file sync capabilities with Mozy Sync. http://mozy.com/product/solutions/file-sync • Symantec provides the Symantec Desktop/Laptop Option™. This is a separate product from NetBackup which has a unique server, database and administration console. It provides endpoint backup for Windows based endpoints and does not include mobile access or advanded features like DLP, file sync or file share (Symantec Desktop and Laptop Option™ version 7.6, Administrator’s Guide, For Windows) 11. BACKUP TO TAPE Optional backup to tape support. • EMC Avamar supports backup to tape through the addition of the media access node. (EMC® Avamar® 7.1, Extended Retention Media Access Node, Customer Hardware Installation Guide, P/N 302-000-851, REV 01 p.9) 12. ADVANCED REPORTING Global view to inform and drive decisions in capacity management and planning, SLAs and operations. • EMC provides Data Protection Advisor for advanced reporting, a separate product with a standalone infrastructure. (EMC® Data Protection Advisor, Version 6.1, Installation and Administration Guide, 302-000-803, REV 02) • Symantec provides OpsCenter for basic operational reporting. You can expand the operational reporting and provide basic file level reporting for Enterprise Vault by adding OpsCenter Analytics, a separate product. (Symantec OpsCenter Administrator’s Guide, Windows and UNIX, Release 7.6)
