Durham, NC, February 22, 2024 — In a recent study, Principled Technologies (PT) conducted testing to explore the flexibility and ease of use of a solution that combines Dell APEX Data Storage Services Backup Target with Dell PowerProtect Data Manager and Amazon Web Services Elastic Disaster Recovery.

PT testing revealed “that the Dell APEX Data Storage Services PowerProtect Data Manager solution made it easy to back up and restore private cloud local volumes and that its Cloud Tiering feature made it easy to back up and restore private cloud local VMs to a cloud storage tier. [PT] also found that adding Data Manager to AWS simplified cloud failover and disaster recovery of virtual machines, thanks to its Cloud Disaster Recovery feature, requiring 29 percent fewer steps” than an AWS solution alone.
