Asigra, which specializes in agentless information recovery management, has announced its Storage I/O and Data Validation Tool. The new utility helps Asigra storage partners, MSPs, VARs and users ensure that optimally tuned and architected storage servers are implemented as part of their disk-based data protection infrastructure to maximize investment return, says Eran Farajun, executive vice president for Asigra.
The tool provides analysis to identify which storage systems under consideration for deployment or already deployed are optimized to work most effectively with Asigra Televaulting and any other I/O intensive general computing application to support positive ROI (return on investment). The tool can simulate loads from hundreds or thousands of remote sites, target servers/workstations or computerss and multiple types of simultaneous activities like backup and restore.
The Asigra Storage I/O and Data Validation Tool works by measuring the communication speed between the backup vault or staged backup device and the backup targets. The tool identifies the issues and allows for tuning that maps to specific backup and recovery performance requirements. This new offering by Asigra supports managed service provider (MSP) pressures to meet customer Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and end user demands for meeting stringent backup windows as well as best practices to ensure lower operational costs.
