The Scalable Available Backup and Restore (SABR) solution from Agilysys combines the best-of-breed product platforms from FalconStor Software, Hitachi Data Systems and Symantec to deliver the fastest, most scalable backup and data deduplication solution on the market today.

The SABR solution from Agilysys is built upon FalconStor Virtual Tape Library (VTL) with deduplication, Symantec NetBackup OpenStorage (OST) and the Hitachi Adaptable Modular Storage 2000 family of storage systems. Addressing some of the most pressing concerns of today's data-driven enterprises, this integrated solution delivered and supported by Agilysys is designed to ensure that over-burdened IT organizations can meet their backup windows and deliver fast, accurate restores. Combining the industry-leading backup and archive software with the world's number one VTL/deduplication system running on high-performance storage provides a seamlessly integrated system that meets the most demanding data protection needs.

Drawing upon proven best practices, extensive experience, industry-leading products and customer input, Agilysys Technology Solutions Group designs the ideal solution for the specific business needs of each customer. SABR adds to the Agilysys stable of disaster recovery (DR) solutions to address the needs of today's enterprises, helping to ensure complete failover protection so that businesses continue to have high availability of data and operational functions in the face of any catastrophe.

"We are very excited about this new bundled offering we are able to integrate from our market-leading technology partners, FalconStor, Symantec and Hitachi Data Systems, which allows us to help ensure our customers are getting the very best VTL solution for their data protection needs," said Tom Baehr, vice president of Agilysys Technology Solutions Group. "SABR is a leading example of how Agilysys and our partners deliver business value for our customers. It is a key component in Agilysys' strategy of creating business value through IT solutions focused on virtualization, data and storage management and data center infrastructure.

"Our commitment to totally open solutions that integrate easily with industry leading backup solutions and storage platforms is clearly demonstrated by this new integrated system from Agilysys, and we are proud of our contribution to the SABR solution," said Brendan Kinkade, vice president of global alliances for FalconStor Software. "As the industry's first Fibre Channel target for Symantec OpenStorage, FalconStor VTL provides the fastest backup and restore speeds in addition to global data deduplication that reduces disk space and optimizes WAN transport for remote DR."
