Announcing New CYA Extender for Symantec NetBackup

enChoice Inc.®, today announced the CYA Extender™ module for Symantec NetBackup®. CYA Extender enables EMC Documentum customers to reduce storage costs by storing the backup content traditionally captured by CYA SmartRecovery directly onto the NetBackup server. This saves organizations capital expenses by removing the need for additional primary disk storage for the content backup. In addition, it now provides customers the ability to leverage NetBackup de-duplication services.

CYA SmartRecovery is an application-aware granular recovery solution for enterprise content management (ECM) systems that complements existing system-level backup products. It provides hot, synchronized backups and hot, granular recovery of objects (content and metadata) back in the repository to their original state. To date, CYA SmartRecovery’s content server object backups have been stored on disk. Now with the release of CYA Extender, customers will reduce storage costs with the less-expensive option of storing the content within NetBackup.

CYA’s experience with EMC Documentum clients has shown that:

  • Non-structured data is predicted to grow by 48% in 2012, according to IDC
  • Data growth is the biggest data center hardware infrastructure challenge for large enterprises, according to a recent survey by Gartner.
  • EMC customers are operating in a global environment requiring 24x7 availability of the Documentum repository.
  • Existing backup strategies cannot recover content with their associated metadata due to logical failures such as repository corruptions, programmatic and human errors.

“Documentum customers can further leverage CYA SmartRecovery to ensure hot recovery from operational incidents without requiring additional storage expenditures," said Mike Fernandes, VP Product Development at enChoice. “With escalating storage costs being an issue within IT departments, we have responded to a very specific need for our customers – eliminate the need for additional storage. CYA Extender saves customers considerable sums of money by leveraging NetBackup de-duplication functionality to further reduce storage requirements between CYA SmartRecovery backups and file system backups."
