Why Backup and why Tape for Backup
For many organizations, backup is either breaking or broken
| 3
42% of small companies
have experienced data loss. 32% lost files forever.

Ransomware & Air Gap (=Tape)
| 4
 Obviously a tape has the best air gap as it's totally disconnected from your network,
https://www.itweb.co.za/content/nG98YdqLkZAMX2PD
 Tape Is Your Last Line of Defense Against Ransomware
 Ransomware Attack: Tape Backups Just Made a Serious Comeback https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/ransomware-
attack-tape-backups-just-made-serious-comeback-wonski/
 But the only way to create a physical air gap is to copy something to removable media and send that media offsite.
Generally speaking, this means tape. https://storageswiss.com/2017/09/07/video-can-disk-backups-have-an-air-gap/
 Bottom line: Given the rising wave of cybercrime, the role of tape - based offline storage and cloud solutions taking
advantage of the “Tape Air Gap” is back in style.
• http://www.fujifilm.ca/products/tape_data_storage/case_studies/pdf/Tape_Air_Gap_Oct2017.pdf
 One of the best ways to protect backups is to move to tape or other offline backups. Physical separation (air gap) is
the best protection. https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1063448-how-to-protect-backup-from-ransom-ware-or-virus
 Recently, tape has shown itself to be an effective means of providing an "air gap“ between live data and protected
data. This air gap is essential to thwarting more sophisticated ransomware and malware that attempts to corrupt live,
backup, and archive data simultaneously. While some are attempting to write-off tape, it has proven to be an
important building block of a complete modern data protection plan all at the industry's lowest cost per gigabyte.

The data deluge
 80% of all files created are inactive
 no access in at least 3 months!
 => NAS: Never Access Storage

HDD ?!?
 HDD has reached the limit of (known) materials to produce
larger write fields:
• Areal density/capacity scaling achieved by shrinking the same basic
technology to write smaller and smaller bits on disk
 Technologies to go beyond the superparamagnetic limit:
• Two dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR)
• Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording (HAMR)
• Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording (MAMR)
• Bit Patterned Media (BPM)
 Recent Capacity Scaling of HDD: Volumetric Density
• Slow down in areal density scaling partially compensated by adding
more disks: conventional technology has reached space limit (~5
platters)
• Helium filled drive less turbulence thinner disks higher capacity
• WD 6TB (2013) 6 platters
• HGST 10TB Drive (2015) 7 platters w/ shingled magnetic recording
• Doesn’t scale: No space for more heads and platters!

Magnetic Media “Trilemma”:

NAND Area Density
 NAND has three strategies for increasing bits per unit area in a silicon chip
1. Lithographic scaling of the bit cell (x, y) dimensions by reducing F*
• - 20nm to 16nm  1.56X more density
• - 16nm to 13nm  1.51X more density
2. Increasing the number of bits per cell
• - 1 bit per cell to MLC (2 bits per cell)  2.00x increase
• - MLC to TLC (3 bits per cell)  1.50x increase
3. 3D stacking (larger bit cell but multiple layers of cells)
• Example: 16 nm goes to 48 nm and cell design goes from 4F2 to 6F2 so cell area increases 13.5x But by using 27 layers the
effective density on the surface of the wafer increases by 2.00x (27/13.5)
| 7
3D Design Example
- Basic Cell 2F x 3F (F is minimum feature)
- 12 cells per layer
- 4 layers
- 2 bits or 3 bits per cell

2017 Storage Bit Cells and Extendibility

IBM Resarch Rüschlikon: Tapetechnologie
Demonstration August 2017
Areal recording density :
201 Gb/in2
20x TS1155 areal density
 330 TB cartridge capacity
This demonstration shows that tape technology has
the potential for significant capacity increase for
years to come!
HDD Technology:
• No room to continue adding platters
• HDD capacity will be driven by areal density scaling (10-20% /a)
Cost advantage of tape will continue to grow!

Areal density scaling

Tape Renaissance: Datenwachstum und die Lücke mit Disk
Bisher war die Kapazitätssteigerung auf den Disk größer als das Datenwachtum. In Zukunft wird aber das
Datenwachstum wesentlich größer sein!
Bedeutet wir müssten mehr Disk/HDDs installieren oder mehr auf Tape setzen!
Wir sollten die „Tape is dead“ Diskussion endlich begraben!

TAPE storage capacity is growing
significantly
y/y growth:
• Tape +12%
• HDD +12%
• LTO +10%
• JAG +20%
• JAG vs LTO
+10%
2014-2017 growth
• Tape +49%
• Disk +17%

Data Security / Protection mit Tape
 Tape bietet:
• Read-After-Write Verification
• 2 independent ECC (=Raid6)
• IBM Jaguar Drives can recover a Media failure of about 11 mm
• Lifetime Warranty for IBM Tape Media
• Returns > 0,02% (10 000 Cartridges -> 2 broken)
• In addition Tape is a “offline” Media!
• No Virus, no software failure, no sabotage,
no human Errors,…“Tape is last line of defense!“
 SAS HDDs Bit Error Rate 10^16
• NL SAS 10^15
• http://www.enterprisestorageforum.com/storage-technology/sas-vs.-sata-1.html
 With NL SAS you will get a Data loss after 110 TB!!!!!
 Example: 50 TB/daily; 2,5 PB capacity
• Raid5 with 8 TB (8+1) => 470 HDDs -> 0,12 TB per HDDs / daily ->
• Failure=Data Loss after ~950 days = 2,5 years
• With Tape: Data loss after 62 years!

Tape Saves the Day
Ben Treynor, VP Engineering and Site Reliability Czar for Google
Gmail, used the official Gmail blog to explain the situation and
provided a powerful endorsement for off-line removable tape
storage.
“I know what some of you are thinking: how could this happen if
we have multiple copies of your data, in multiple data
centers...well, in some rare instances software bugs can affect
several copies of the data. That’s what happened here. Some
copies of mail were deleted...To protect your information from
these unusual bugs, we also back it up to tape. Since the tapes are
offline, they’re protected from such software bugs”.
From Google blog at http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/gmailback-soon-for-
everyone.html
Online disk data is
exposed to corruption
Use offline tape storage
for outstanding protection
The Last Line of Defense!

The more things change, the more they stay the same…

Microsoft Azure will use
Tape
 Why Microsoft Azure will use Tape:
• The cheapest most economical way to store cold data, continued improvement with 30%+ CAGR and
easiest roadmap.
• Cheaper-Separating the media from the reader/writer
• Both Tape and Optical pull the media out of the reader/writer.
• 1 expensive part, and service any amount of media.
• Tape libraries can be more flexible in drive / media ratio
• New tape drives can store more data on older media
• Tape libraries have less environmental constraints
| 18
Faktor ~2 Faktor ~4

What storage technologies will win?
All of them. Flash
• Continued improvement, but will hit limits soon
• Expect to be in range of 15x-5x cost of HDD for foreseeable future
 HDD
• Move to SMR, HAMR/EMR and BPM
• Expect 60TB+ drives in the early to mid 2020’s.
 Optical
• Additional layers
• Very long media lifetime, but WORM
 Tape (not dead)
• The cheapest most economical way to store cold data, continued improvement with 30%+ CAGR and
easiest roadmap.

What makes up the cost of storage?
 Data center space and power
• $6-12M / MW ≅ $9/W
 Connection cost and power
• Media Slot Tax: As high as 50% for hot storage, as low as 20% for cold storage
 Network infrastructure cost
• Below 10% for hot storage, nominal for cooling storage
 Time to fill
• 50% full means 2x the cost
 Media lifetime
• Twice the life is half the cost <unless new media is cheaper than maintenance>
| 21

Cheaper-Separating the media from the
reader/writer
 Both Tape and Optical pull the media out of the reader/writer.
 1 expensive part, and service any amount of media.
 Optical libraries fix the maximum ratio of drives / media
 Tape libraries can be more flexible in drive / media ratio
 New tape drives can store more data on older media
 Tape libraries have tighter environmental constraints
 Tape libraries require fiber channel infrastructure

Proof point:
IBM media is so well designed and quality so tightly controlled that only <0.03% of LTO and
<0.02% of 3592 media is typically ever returned.
<300 per million LTO cartridges returned
<200 per million 3592 cartridges returned
And IBM is typically able to retrieve 100% of data.

• Up-Format (eg. Jaguar) is not supported
• None initialized M8 Media will work in LTO7 Format (aka 6 TB)
 TS4500, TS4300, TS2900, TS31/3200 & TS3310 support un-initialized M8 media and initialize M8
Media
• TS3500 supports only pre-intialized M8 Media
 Inadvertent usage of un-initialized M8 media (when not supported) will result in a reduction in
capacity
 No commitment that LTO9 can read M8
 M8 has the best $/GB (below 1 Cent)
