1. What Types of Backups are Available For
Data Protection and Recovery?
Traditional Backup Vs Array-based backup
The process that describes the storing a copy of the data with the capability of
recovering it should the data loss occur is called data backup and recovery
service. At VRS Technologies LLC, we provide complete Backup and Recovery
Solution in Dubai for a comprehensive protection of the data.
Why is data backup important for your organization?
It is the primary responsibility of the organization to have the data backed up
for the crucial times, essentially for the period when the necessary insights are
sought, but only to find the data missing. Data failures in the organizations could
be due to the following reasons:
• Hardware or software failure
• Data corruption
• Malicious virus-attacks
• Accidental deletion of the data
Storing a copy of the data is the least the organizations should do to battle
against the data loss. Storing a backup of the data at regular intervals mitigates
the data loss. The shorter the interval between the backups, the lesser is the
potential loss of data.
Type of Data Backup solutions
There are ideally two types of backup solutions – Streaming Backup and Array-
based backup. Let’s see in detail what each is all about.

2. Traditional or Streaming backup: The streaming backup is a traditional way of
storing the data where the data collected from the application/host servers are
funneled through the backup server to a secondary storage system. The actions
of the backup server include:
• Providing an index to the data for easy search and restore
• Data compression for minimizing the required storage space
• Encrypting the data
While the traditional backup provides a fool proof way of storing the data which
also offers the encryption ability to store the sensitive data securely in the vault,
there are certain disadvantages like
• Reduction in system performance as the application server has to allocate the
CPU space to process the backup jobs from the local or a remote storage.
• With traditional streaming, the large backup jobs can be complex.
Array-based backup: An array-based replication of the data is an approach
towards the data backup where the copy of the data is created in the same array
as the source. Apart from this, it also allows making a copy in an array situated
remotely.
Advantages of Array-based data backup
• The performance is not affected as the primary storage creates the local
recovery points with the least impact on productivity.
• Data efficiencies are retained during the data transfer from the primary to the
secondary storage.
• As the data storage is not in the proprietary format, it is easier to process the
data for easy recovery.
