There's no reason to believe that production data on NAS is somehow less important than production data in VMs, especially considering that the customer needs to protect both. In other words, 1 VUL protects 125GB of actual useful production data (when data resides in a VM).ģ. ![]() Industry-average VM size is 150GB, among which 25GB is redundant/useless data (OS files). ![]() Someone who's selling pretty much every enterprise backup solution out there has shared with me the following pricing data (I'm removing competitors names to be nice, but all these are well known industry leaders):Ģ. And I also saw workloads which were cheaper to lose than to backup.Īlso, I think it's important to put this NAS backup pricing discussion in the context, because Veeam is not alone in the market. I've seen workloads where unstructured data was worth more than your entire NAS farm, while being less than 10TB in total size. The correct question to ask here is how much that data is worth, if it is lost. Regarding how much "backup" should or should not cost: it's actually a wrong question to ask. so yeah, that's definitely in a whole different league for a more typical Synology/QNAP box most small businesses have, so there's no surprise most people here will see your deployment as an "incredibly large NAS" ![]() I looked up the list price for those 8 Isilons units, and across storage and connectivity that rack looks to be close to USD 1M. ![]()
