Unique Data Protection Challenges
Data Protection Challenges Workflow Process for Production and Broadcasting Rapid flow of large amounts of data Collaborative workgroups Shared access Industry with Tight Deadlines Data immediately available when required Archiving is important Reliable, quick recovery is more important Exponential Growth of Data Sets Increase in size and rate of creation HD data requiring 6 times more storage Security Protection of digital assets Theft, natural disasters, user error 9
Data Lifecycle & Workflow
Data Workflow and Lifecycle Transparent and Continuous Access to Data created or ingested Data saved to disk Data archived to tape File is moved to archive Archive recovered from tape Start Time Minutes/hours Creation / Capture Days/Weeks/Months Delivery Years Initial Processing Short Term Archiving Editing/ Processing Various Formats Long Term Archiving Primary Storage Expensive disk 11 Tape Storage More affordable tape Disk Storage Expensive disk Tape Storage Cheap/Secure long term storage media
Data Workflow Analysis Archive process cannot disrupt workflow Transparency is key Key product features to support workflow Impact to deadlines Availability Analysis of Data Set Size Today Minimum requirements Data Set Size Requirements Going Forward Scalability of system a key factor Don’t get locked into a hardware or sw platform Flexible licensing structure 12
Implementation Examples
TV Broadcast Customer High availability Unusual timeframe for storyboarding entire episode Tight deadlines Archive process cannot impact workflow Quick point-in-time restore 4 incremental backups per day Complete system backup takes < ½ day Ease of use with search 14
Large Scale Digital Film Laboratory Short & Long Term Archiving Data ingested to SAN Migrated to tape (2 -3 weeks) Short Term Archive When editorial team is ready, data can be recovered quickly Minimal impact to production workflow Once finished, data archived to tape Long Term Archiving 15
Creative Advertising Agency 24 X 7 Facility Offline Video Online video Libraries of music and sound effects Typical Archive Contains > 20 TB of Data Small windows to perform archive operation Archive Data Duplicate on-site and off-site tapes Immediate retrieval Disaster Recovery 16
Summary
Summary Solution should facilitate and streamline workflow Automated, transparent processes Tailor environment to data lifecycle Stay ahead of rate of content creation & processing Control costs of increases in storage needs Fast access to data regardless of media type Flexible solutions for heterogeneous data centers Archive of business and media data 18
