 Backup/Restore Today & Tomorrow
Backup, Backup & restore, Backup Strategy, HP, NetApp
Looking to re-invent our Backup/Restore system. Throw everything out and start again.  But where to start?

What is the leading edge technology today, that once installed and setup, will allow me to forget B/R till 2020?

I have over 1PByte of data to deal with.

Whats the best backup strategy? Continual incremental? Tiering?
