The NetApp AltaVault cloud-based appliances for AWS can be used for two primary purposes: to recover on-premises workloads in the cloud or to efficiently protect cloud-based workloads. For organizations without a secondary disaster recovery location, or for companies looking for extra protection with a low-cost tertiary site, AltaVault cloud-based appliances are the key to enabling cloud-based disaster recovery. Using on-premises AltaVault physical or virtual appliances, data is seamlessly and securely protected in the cloud. If the primary site is unavailable, customers can quickly spin-up a cloud-based AltaVault and recover data to Amazon EC2.
If you already have production workloads running in Amazon EC2, you know that protecting those workloads in the cloud is just as critical as if they were running on-premises. NetApp AltaVault cloud-based appliances for AWS offer an efficient and secure approach to backing up cloud-based workloads. Using your existing backup software, AltaVault deduplicates, encrypts, and rapidly migrates data to Amazon S3 or Glacier. The AVA-c4 offers Ingest rates of up to 300GB/hr in backup mode and 175GB/hr in cold storage mode. It can support up to 20TB of cloud capacity, which can represent up to 600TB of data after deduplication.
