Unlike traditional enterprise backup solutions, the SEPATON S2100®-ES2 data protection platform delivers grid scalability of both performance and capacity, the industry’s fastest performance, multi-protocol support, high-reliability, and industry-leading deduplication. It was specifically designed to reduce complexity and cost in the enterprise data center.

Massive Scale-out Architecture

The SEPATON platform lets you scale performance and capacity independently for “pay as you grow” cost savings that traditional enterprise backup solutions cannot deliver.

  • Deploy 2-8 SEPATON replication engine (SRE®) processing nodes to achieve industry-leading performance of up to 43.2 TB/hour.
  • Add capacity simply by adding disk shelves.
  • Designed for simple management, the platform brings added performance or storage on-line, configures devices to the optimal settings, and load balances without operator intervention.
  • Pre-cabled cabinets for non-disruptive expansion. • 1 or 2 TB SATA drives and hardware compression optimize physical storage capacity. Single system capacity scales from 12 TB to 1.6 PB (before deduplication).

Setting the Industry Standard for Performance

Patented technology coupled with 64-bit processing delivers backup performance of up to 1500 MB/sec/node-many times faster than nearest competing enterprise backup solutions.

  • Improved power efficiency, dynamic power management, and flexible 2U form factor.
  • Back up, deduplicate, and replicate massive data volumes faster, reduce backup windows.
  • Meet restore SLAs and/or RPO/RTOs with unparalleled scalability to eliminate system sprawl.

Scalable, Global Deduplication

SEPATON DeltaStor® software delivers global deduplication of massive data volumes without slowing performance. DeltaStor leverages patented ContentAware technology to identify duplicate data at the byte level for maximum capacity reduction. It is the only deduplication solution that can scale processing across multiple nodes and  that delivers true global deduplication. It also enables you to choose the data to be deduplicated by type and source. It is the only solution that efficiently deduplicates both progressive incremental TSM backups and multi-streamed database backups. DeltaStor delivers the industry’s highest deduplication ratios for the broadest set of TSM environments and use cases. 

Bandwidth Optimized Replication

  • DeltaRemote™ software delivers fast, cost-effective replication of large data volumes by transmitting only new data.
  • Up to 97 percent bandwidth reduction
  • Use the SEPATON system as a target or source for replication in existing SEPATON environments.
  • Combine with storage pools to prioritize replication to meet quality of service requirements.

Multiprotocol Support

The SEPATON S2100-ES2 platform supports Symantec NetBackup OpenStorage (OST) on 10 Gb Ethernet concurrently with Fibre Channel tape emulation and eliminates many technology and platform migration issues for enterprise customers. 

Storage Pooling

Unlike standard enterprise backup solutions, the SEPATON S2100-ES2 features storage pooling, a feature that allows data managers to create discrete storage environments (pools) within a single appliance and to assign each pool its own disk type, deduplication configuration, replication priority, backup policies, and backup application.

  • Enables non-disruptive, phased technology migrations.
  • Ensures optimal system utilization and administrative ease.
  • Provides secure multi-tenancy and charge-back to support private cloud infrastructures.
  • Storage pooling to manage data from multiple business units or departments in a single secure appliance.
  • Provides accurate measurement and forecasting of capacity and processing needs for budgeting.
  • Licensed Secure Erasure™ option delivers guaranteed, auditable erasure of data on virtual tape cartridges.
  • Erases data with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-approved data over-write pattern.
  • Saves media costs and enables a greener data center that standard enterprise backup solutions can deliver with Auditable proof of destruction for each cartridge.

Advanced Management and Reporting 

Patented SEPATON ContentAware™ technology delivers the industry’s most powerful monitoring and reporting capability. SEPATON delivers the information needed to maintain operational efficiency, identify strategies for cost savings, plan for capacity needs, meet regulatory requirements, and deliver optimal levels of service.

Designed for High Reliabilitybetter than enterprise backup solutions

The SEPATON system delivers 99.999 percent data availability with features that include SATA RAID 6-based Hitachi Data Systems enterprise-class storage with hot spare disks, redundant, internally mirrored drives protect critical software, real-time platform monitoring, diagnostics and automated alerts.
