Backup and Recovery
Data backup is an essential part of IT operations. To meet diverse backup needs, Infortrend offers EonStor GS enterprise unified storage solution that combines high performance, scalability, and flexibility.
EonStor GS works seamlessly with mainstream backup software or can function as a standalone backup storage via its built-in Backup Server. With RAID protection, deduplication, and compression, GS ensures data integrity and efficient capacity utilization. Available in U.2 NVMe SSD and HDD models, GS offers flexible backup configurations for enterprises and SMBs.
Enterprise Backup
EonStor GS works with leading enterprise backup software, including Veeam, Veritas, and Commvault, providing fast and reliable target storage for backup workloads. It supports block, file, and object storage protocols, with block storage recommended for databases and virtual machines, and file storage suited for general data.
Certified across multiple Veeam Ready categories, GS ensures seamless compatibility with Veeam Backup & Replication and ransomware protection.
SMB Backup
For small and medium-sized businesses, GS includes a built-in Backup Server that backs up files from file servers, public cloud, and user PCs without requiring additional licenses.
Users can easily schedule backups, set retention policies, and perform incremental or differential backups to reduce time and data volume, all through an easy-to-use EonOne interface, which provides a dedicated backup console for streamlining backup setups.
High Performance
GS delivers up to 20GB/s block and 12GB/s file write throughput over high-speed 100/200GbE, significantly shortening backup windows.
High Capacity
The 4U 90-bay HDD model offers over 2PB of storage in a single chassis, while the U.2 NVMe SSD model delivers 1.47PB in a 2U chassis. Both are expandable up to 20PB, meeting large-scale backup requirements.
Comprehensive Data Protection
GS provides strong data protection with RAID 5/6 to safeguard against drive failures. Remote Replication keeps data synchronized to a remote site or cloud for disaster recovery. WORM (Write Once Read Many) prevents data tampering and protects against ransomware attacks, while encryption ensures data privacy.
High Storage Efficiency
GS maximizes storage efficiency through deduplication, saving up to 66% of backup space, while compression further reduces backup data volume and accelerates backup and restore operations.
Flexible Model Options
GS is available with single or dual redundant controllers and in SSD or HDD series, allowing organizations to tailor their setup for performance, capacity, and budget.
