Open Systems SnapVault

Extend and enhance your data protection strategy.

Designed to safeguard open storage platforms faster and more cost-effectively, Open Systems SnapVault®, OSSV, is your key to simplifying and extending NetApp® data protection strategies.

Open Systems SnapVault leverages the block-level incremental backup technology found in SnapVault to protect Windows®, Linux®, UNIX®, and VMware® systems running on mixed storage. OSSV increases performance and enables more frequent data protection by moving and creating backups from changed data blocks, not entire changed files. And since only changed blocks are stored, less capacity is needed.

For distributed organizations, this strategy of transmitting small amounts of data not only makes disk-based backup cost-effective for remote offices; it also provides the option of backing up directly to a core data center for centralized management of data protection.
