Our findings show that fast backups for the shortest backup window, fast restores, fast recoveries, Instant VM boots,
fast tape copies, and maintaining a fixed length backup window are the most impactful requirements for organizations.
The second challenge with such
fast tape drives is that you cannot stream a modern tape drive that's placed behind a network backup server.
The combination of post-process deduplication, most recent backup cache, and GRID scalability enables IT departments to achieve the shortest backup window, fast and reliable restores,
fast tape copy, rapid disaster recovery, and management of data growth without performance degradation or forklift upgrades.
The levels within the archive could be fast cache, slow cache (with binding capabilities),

Linear Tape Open Accelis-Accelis ill be a 25GB, dual-hub cartridge, similar to the current IBM 3570 cartridge and will be built for speed, making for
fast tape access.
By keeping the most recent backup in its whole form and storing all previous versions as the byte-level changes (de-duplication), ExaGrid is the only vendor that offers rapid restore of backup jobs and
fast tape copy for offsite tapes -- unlike other solutions which require re-assembly of every backup job from millions, or even billions of small blocks tracked in large hash tables.
