Veritas Netbackup 5350 San Nas Storage System 960Tb 8Tb 1Gb 10Gb 16Gb

The Veritas NetBackup 5350 SAN/NAS Storage System is an enterprise-grade backup appliance engineered to meet the most demanding data protection requirements in today’s data centers. Built around the trusted NetBackup software, this appliance combines high-performance hardware with intelligent software to deliver fast backups, rapid recoveries, and resilient data protection for both virtualized and physical environments. Designed for scale, simplicity, and reliability, the NetBackup 5350 helps organizations consolidate backup infrastructure, reduce operational complexity, and lower total cost of ownership while maintaining strong data governance and compliance. Whether safeguarding a sprawling virtualized estate, remote/branch offices, or mission-critical databases, the NetBackup 5350 provides a unified, scalable platform that grows with your data, workloads, and recovery objectives. It is a sophisticated, all-in-one backup solution that blends performance, availability, and security to protect what matters most.

• Unified protection for virtual and physical workloads: Policy-driven automation, centralized management, and seamless integration with NetBackup’s broad ecosystem allow consistent backup and recovery across virtual machines, physical servers, databases, and application workloads from a single appliance.
• High-performance backups and rapid restores: An optimized I/O path and intelligent data handling deliver fast backup windows, near-instant restores for critical workloads, and streamlined operations so protection SLAs stay intact even as data grows.
• Scalable, modular capacity: Start with a robust baseline and expand capacity and performance as your environment evolves, avoiding disruptive migrations while preserving investment protection in on-premises and hybrid deployments.
• Resiliency and high availability: Redundant components, fault-tolerant design, hot-swappable drives, automatic failover, and proactive health monitoring minimize downtime and maintain steady protection during maintenance windows or hardware faults.
• Data security, governance, and compliance: Built-in deduplication, compression, and tiering reduce storage footprint and bandwidth usage; encryption at rest and in transit, along with role-based access control and audit-ready logging, strengthen data security and regulatory compliance across the protection stack.
