Q&A

Q: What backup benefits does 64-bit native processing deliver?

A: Asigra supports single or multi-core x64 processors for maximum performance and scalability. Televaulting multi-threaded backup software processes several orders of magnitude more data and allows larger data block reduction for near real-time distributed data protection.  A single DS-System vault central site can support tens of thousands of concurrent backup/restore activities. 64-bit Televaulting can process block-level incremental backup and deduplication for files up to 4TB in size.
