Cyber-resilient Data Protection Solution for Data Centers
The Synology ActiveProtect appliance DP5200 is a data protection solution that comes preconfigured with hardware that runs ActiveProtect Manager, an operating system designed specifically for backup purposes. With its ability to perform backups, restore, deduplicate, replicate, and manage while ensuring security, the DP5200 is a highperformance rackmount backup appliance ideal for mid-sized businesses and can be placed in branch offices or data centers. It seamlessly integrates all current and future workloads across multiple sites into clusters, enabling centralized management through a single platform. With immutability, air-gapped backups, and access control, the DP5200 protects against ransomware attacks, and secures all your data.
Quick and seamless deployment
Essential configuration such as disk partitioning and raid array setup will be automatically completed, making deployment fast and effortless so that you can start protecting your data immediately.
Protect workloads with specified policies
Safeguard all your workloads, including VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, Windows, macOS, Linux, NetApp ONTAP, Nutanix Files, Microsoft 365 services, Oracle Database, and Microsoft SQL server. Establish policies for companies to meet SLA requirements, and automate data protection by detecting existing and future workloads, ensuring that the workloads are secured under the appropriate policies. View, modify, and manage policies with ease.
Scalability and visibility
DP5200 can manage up to 1,000 servers and 120,000 workloads in a cluster. Integrate these backup servers into your cluster whenever needed. It also provides visibility into the hardware status of remote backup appliances and performs remote operations. The dashboard consolidates key information within the cluster, giving you a clear overview of all your workloads. Additionally, custom alerts allow for real-time monitoring of appliances and data status.
Reliable backup and flexible recovery
The DP5200 supports self-healing functionality with continuous detection of silent data corruption through Btrfs checksum. It ensures zero errors by repairing corrupt data via RAID technology. To verify the recoverability of backup data, disaster recovery drills can be regularly performed in a sandboxed environment without affecting your primary production site. Backup verification is also available, automatically generating recovery drill videos for auditing purposes. In the event of a disaster, data can be flexibly restored based on your Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) via entire machine restoration, file-level recovery, physical-to-virtual (P2V), or virtual-to-virtual (V2V) methods to restore data to the designated location.
Uncompromised ransomware protection
To prevent ransomware attacks, the DP5200 protects data backups and backup copies with immutability and write-once-read-many (WORM) storage to ensure that no one can modify data that has been backed up during the specified retention period. Additionally, it integrates encryption capabilities, enabling data to be encrypted locally before being backed up to remote destinations. To further enhance security, you can also isolate the remote environment using the air-gap feature.
Optimized backup efficiency
The DP5200 optimizes storage space allocation via hardware and software integration. By leveraging SSD cache to store backup-related metadata, optimizing data organization, and consolidating multiple files into a single image, it accelerates data processing. Both backups and backup copies utilize global source-side deduplication, as it compares data at the source and only transmits non-duplicate data to save bandwidth and storage space.
