- Why is a statistical backup useful?
Statistical-mode backup is a method that performs a “dry run” on a backup set. This process performs 100% of the functionality of a regular backup with the exception of sending data to the Dakota Backup DS-System. Actual deduplication and compression statistics are generated along with information regarding the amount of net-new data created and backup set completion time. With all of the information contained in reports after running a statistical backup, Dakota Backup, LLC can give a customer a real-world costing and performance estimate. - What is LAN Discovery?
LAN Discovery is a tool used to discover data within a network that can be protected with a DS-Client in that location. LAN Discovery allows the Dakota Backup, LLC to generate reports about data volume, location, duplicate data, access trends and storage space. - How do I backup a NetApp appliance?
A NetApp appliance is backed up the same way as any other NAS device. You do so by backing up the data through exported shares (i.e. CIFS shares for Windows, NFS shares for Linux). - Can Dakota Backup backup laptops?
Absolutely. Dakota Backup software can backup laptops with our DS-Mobile Client application that has a small footprint, CPU and bandwidth throttle and secure, efficient transmission of data or with the Dakota Backup DS-Client.
