Expand enhances Double-Take with:
- Up to 2,000% Double-Take acceleration over the WAN
- QoS for real-time data priority on shared links
- Reliable performance monitoring
- Flexible deployment options
- Transparency to simplify infrastructure integration
- 6 to 9 months to complete ROI
Using advanced predictive compression algorithms that are lossless, Expand is able
to reduce Double-Take’s traffic footprint on the WAN – even when all of the traffic
is from Double-Take’s bandwidth saving features. In fact, on average, only considering
Double-Take traffic, Expand will accelerate traffic by more than 250% with peaks
of as much as 2,000%, and even reduces the transfer times as well. This means that
efficient data replication can reach new levels.
Instant access to mission-critical data, from any location or during a disaster,
means that data must be replicated in real-time. With Accelerators’ QoS, real-time data
protection can occur over WAN links shared by other applications without hindering
their performance (or allowing their use of the network to impair Double-Take performance).The
Accelerators’ QoS makes sure that the network understands what is important to the business,
ensuring the right traffic gets the right amount of bandwidth at the right time.
Some WANs are particularly malicious with their performance robbing latency. In
fact, some of these links are even difficult to fully utilize. However, with Expands’
SCPS-based TCP acceleration, full utilization is possible and latency-caused slow
downs become a thing of the past. Completing the added Expand value, full Double-Take
performance monitoring is built in, allowing for accountability and planning, and
especially useful in disaster recovery scenarios.
Combined with a Double-Take solution, Expand’s technology platform ensures that continuous
real-time backup and automatic failover for remote offices can truly be effective
and affordable. Working together, the minimal data loss and immediate recovery for
disasters and outages are a reality over the WAN.
