Unitrends has unveiled Recovery-7 Series data protection vault and cross-vault (replication) appliances, which support in-flight data deduplication for optimised WAN performance.

The company said that the new offerings available for two replication choices, vaulting and cross-vaulting. The Recovery-7 series vault appliances automatically transfers data from an on-premise to an off-premise location for homogeneous small and medium replicated branch operations. It provides a two-way transfer for heterogeneous small and medium branch operations and feature in-flight data deduplication to optimise WAN bandwidth between premises.

The Recovery-7 series data protection vaults and cross-vaults include Recovery-710v and Recovery-710cv; Recovery-720v and Recovery-720cv; and Recovery-730v and Recovery-730cv, the company said.

The company said that the Recovery 710v and 710cv features 3TB of unformatted capacity and are rack mounted with a 1U form factor containing four cold-swap drive bays, a quad core CPU, 8GB of memory, and 3TB disk capacity (4 x 1.5TB in a RAID-10), single gigabit ethernet controller, an eSATA port for optional D2D2D (Disk-to-Disk-to-Disk) seeding, and a single 520W power supply.

According to Unitrends, the Recovery 720v, 720cv and 730v, 730cv features 6TB and 15TB of unformatted capacity, respectively. Both the offerings are rack mounted with 2U form factor containing two internal drives configured as RAID-1,6 and RAID-1,12 hot swap drive bays, respectively.

The Recovery 720v, 720cv features a quad core CPU, 8GB of memory and 6TB disk capacity (6 x 1.5TB in a RAID-6), dual gigabit ethernet controller, and a dual 500W power supply. The Recovery 730v and 730cv features a quad core CPU, 8GB of memory, and 15TB disk capacity (12 x 1.5TB in a RAID-12), dual gigabit ethernet controller and a dual 500W power supply.

In addition, the on-premise logical appliance of the Recovery-7 series data protection cross-vaults also includes an integrated data protection software suite consisting of recovery console with BareMetal, file, exchange, and SQL data protection capabilities and advanced compression and AES 256-bit encryption.

Mark Campbell, COO of Unitrends, said: “We have designed our new series of vault and cross-vault appliances to automate the replication process in a way that dramatically reduces operational expense. We’ve matched this powerful technology with a compelling licensing model that eliminates restrictions on storage capacity or clients so that customers have the freedom they need to protect their data without the hidden costs of traditional data protection options.”
