»HP StorageWorks Continuous Information Capture Solution
part of the HP Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) portfolio, optimizes information roll-back for both databases and applications. A local solution, CIC continuously mirrors changes, offering a timeline represented by the widest range of available roll-back points. Important application or business events may be tracked in the timeline to help improve optimal roll-back point identification. CIC also helps shorten overall roll-back time. Virtual snapshots are created quickly - a process not slowed by a need to layer incremental backups or replay archive logs. And, with virtual snapshots created away from application servers, CIC enables off-host processing tasks, such as backup or testing, without impacting production systems.
What’s New
· Leverages HP DL585 G2 as the new CIC recovery server platform Offers ability to add incremental protected (application) servers, with support for up to six active protected servers per single CIC recovery server configuration

» HP StorageWorks IP Distance Gateway
provides SAN over WAN connectivity for protecting and replicating data between HP EVA systems. By connecting islands of SANs over WANs, the IP Distance Gateway enables continuous access replication, both asynchronous and synchronous, SAN device sharing, data migration and other long distance data services. At the core of providing long distance data services is the ability to copy, move and replicate data, both locally and over long distances, however, SANs have limited distance capabilities (10km) and IT managers need to share, protect and move data over greater distances than 10km. An alternative to Routers and switches, the IP Distance Gateway uses the FCIP (Fibre Channel Internet Protocol) standard to extend SAN connectivity.
