DD Boost Previous Solutions
The design of our previous setup involved separate directories, leading to complexities, especially with infections. Upon migrating to an open setup, specifically using Data Domain, we conducted test services. The key advantage was the simplicity of managing data, particularly with the ease of using the Data Domain backup facility. This system proved to be responsive and efficient in handling data, unlike our previous setup. We found it easy to use, especially in comparison to our previous setup with Veritas.

Before we used DD Boost, we used NetBackup and TSM. We migrated from the tech libraries to desk-based storage in TSM. We used fibre transport for a while for NetBackup, but we weren't happy because we needed a separate license. So we currently use TCP IP client connectivity, and there are no other mechanisms for it. So we're not copying on the NetBackup side, but we are allowing the array at the bottom to replicate.
View full review »We are actually using both Veritas and Data Domain simultaneously. Between these two, Data Domain is more efficient for me and very scalable. There is a limitation to the scalability at some point, but there is a different architecture so it does not really become a problem.
I'm currently using two solutions: Veritas and Data Domain. Data Domain is more efficient for me and it's really scalable.

We have used HPE StoreOnce.
Dell EMC Data Domain Boost has more features than HPE StoreOnce.
