Dell is continuing its philosophy of simplifying storage devices for the SMB sector, after it launched the Dell PowerVault DL2000 last week, an all-in-one system that couples a server, a storage system, as well as backup and recovery software, as a single device.

The PC manufacturer is making some dramatic claims about the performance of DL2000, saying that by combining both storage and the backup and recovery system in a single box, it can slash backup times by up to 52 percent and restore times by up to 77 percent compared to tape.

Improving backup solutions for the SMB sector is a welcome announcement, that the vendors and service providers can further enable customers to backup and restore their datas has to be a good thing in terms of compliance and service delivery.

Your service, your IT is only as good as your backups, your backups underpin your ability to make changes, to be able to adapt to the business need, as well as be in line with any regulators or laws governing data. Being able to backup is fine, but being able to restore on demand when it’s needed can be the difference between success and failure, revenue generation or costs being absorbed.
