Today I have the pleasure of interviewing Saradhi Sreegiriraju, a Product Manager from Data Domain. Data Domain is a partner in our OpenStorage initiative. If you aren't familiar with OpenStorage you can read all about it in section 3.5 of this Symantec whitepaper on "NetBackup Disk Based Data Protection".

 

Q. Tell us a little more about yourself. How long have you been with Data Domain and what is your role there?

 

A. I’m the Product Manager at Data Domain for the NetBackup OpenStorage product. I also have Product Management responsibilities for our System Management and Quality of Service products. I’ve been with Data Domain for the past 22 months and prior to that I was with NetApp and Fujitsu.

If you have been reading storage blogs lately you have heard about EMC's Atmos annoucement. I won't comment much on the platform, there are enough pundits doing that. There is one simple inescapable fact, storage devices and storage software that allow one to create simple and clear policies for what needs to be done are in demand now and will be in even greater demand in the future.

 

NetBackup’s Storage Lifecycle Policies are a great example of this. Combining this capability with Open Storage seems to have even convinced at least one of the backup industry's most trusted raconteurs.

To poke a little fun, I have to admit that I knew I had heard the name Atmos before but I couldn’t remember where. It was late Sunday night...

Last Wednesday I scraped frost and snow off my windshield and headed for the airport and ultimately the Atlantis Resort in Nassau, Bahamas. When you live in Minnesota and winter has already arrived, stepping off a plane in a hot place in the tropics always feels like magic.

I was at the Atlantis as part of an annual event Symantec throws to honor the people who have filed patents, been awarded patents or have driven significant innovation. As a bonus you also get to bring a guest – which is a pretty nice perk if you were thinking about joining Symantec.  The events were fun and it was also a great opportunity to meet with my colleagues from around the globe face to face.
