This includes approaches to storage pooling inside of modernbackup applications, using disk and file systems within these pools, as well as how and when to utilize deduplication and virtual tape libraries (VTL) within these infrastructures.

Learning Objectives

Get a basic grounding in backup and restore technology including tape, disk, snapshots, deduplication, virtual tape, and replication technologies.
Compare and contrast backup and restore alternatives to achieve data protection and data recovery.
Identify and define backup and restore operations and terms.
