Yet, every desktop has the same Windows operating system, same applications, and often numerous copies of the same data.
#CLOUD BACKUP MEANING FULL#
At this rate, a full backup will take from two to three weeks to transfer 10 to 75 TB of data over a 100 Mbit network. A 100 Mbit (megabit) network can transfer only 10 megabytes of data per second. The next, even bigger challenge is to back up the PCs to this storage. Let’s assume this company invests in expensive storage for their PC backups. Eventually, this company may need to acquire as much as a one p etabyte of storage for PC backups alone. With a 2:1 compression ratio, the backup administrator needs to provision between 10 to 75TB for every full backup, plus have more space for incremental and differential backups. PCs contain from 20 to 150TB (terabytes) of data. An average laptop can hold from 50 to a few hundred gigabytes of data on the hard disk. The “sheer volume of data” was given as one of the primary reasons why.įor example, let’s look at a company with 400 employees who use desktops and laptops. However, 75 percent of small-to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) surveyed by Acronis and IDC (International Data Corporation) admit that their data is not fully protected. Otherwise your company can lose money, reputation, time - your entire business can even shut down.
You must protect and back up all this data. Every 10 minutes, humanity creates as much data volume as was created from the dawn of civilization until the year 2000.
In 1990, the hard disk of a personal computer was 10 megabytes.
