The Dell™ SonicWALL™ Continuous Data Protection (CDP) 5040B is designed for small and medium sized organizations demanding high performance and capacity. The CDP 5040B offers automatic disk-based backup and recovery for multiple workstations and server applications, usable capacity of up to 10 TB (at standard 2:1 compression ratios), flexible disaster recovery options, RAID protection, and replaceable drives. Powerful administrative policy streamlines backup operations and manages information assets more efficiently and intelligently.
As a next-generation data protection solution for small- to medium-size organizations, the CDP 5040B offers a combination of new and advanced features to provide IT with complete control and automation.
With a usable capacity of up to 10 TB (at standard 2:1 compression ratios), the CDP 5040B is ideal for small- to medium-size organizations.
The CDP 5040B flexibly accommodates CDP environments ranging from a single PC to large mixed-platform Windows®, Apple® or Linux® server farms. It also supports most popular business and client applications, including Microsoft® SQL, Exchange and SharePoint servers, System State, Active Directory and Outlook.
Administrative-level policy-enforced control is applied to ensure user data residing on laptops and desktops is backed up continuously or on a schedule. Unlike many other traditional backup products, no user intervention or manual backup tasks are required.
The CDP integrated software, hardware and storage gives users an unsurpassed out-of-the-box experience. Pre-configured and tested, the CDP Series can go from box to backup in less than 30 minutes, enhancing productivity and return on investment. With agent software auto-discovery capabilities, the agent can locate and selectively connect to any available CDP device on the same network and backup can occur instantly.
Re-architected from the ground up, CDP delivers data preservation, recovery responsiveness, data governance and disaster recovery (DR) readiness to help comply with even the most stringent recovery objectives.
Powerful policy-driven backups enable administrators to enforce rules for specified users or groups globally while ensuring only business-relevant data assets are preserved and recoverable for any level of disaster that occurs.

Hierarchically executed backup rules enable a sustainable data reduction strategy that intelligently identifies, captures and preserves pertinent business information. Data storage is optimized and backup speeds increased while eliminating the costly storage of irrelevant or outdated information.

Combined with data de-duplication, advanced versioning and trimming features, CDP v6 efficiently captures, catalogues and preserves each backup chronologically, while excluding duplicate data. This eliminates the inefficiencies produced by the traditional method of excessively backing up and storing incremental and daily full backup files, which overtax secondary storage and result in data loss when rebuilding historical backup points.
CDP optimizes storage efficiency by handling more data with less disk space and enhances bandwidth efficiency by sending less traffic over the network. This lets IT drastically shorten backup windows, minimize bandwidth utilization, improve performance and reduce operational costs.
Dell SonicWALL's management and reporting solutions such as the Dell SonicWALL Global Management System and Dell SonicWALL Analyzer provide a comprehensive architecture for centrally creating and managing policy settings for CDP appliances, logging and analyzing backup activity and delivering intuitive reports.

For an added layer of disaster protection, IT can archive the latest version of business-critical data on an attached NTFS formatted USB drive and physically transport it to a secure offsite location. Designed to help organizations meet regulatory compliance, local archiving enables administrators to browse archives and restore individual files.
CDP Universal System Recovery software creates an exact image of an entire server or workstation, including operating system files, programs, databases and settings. This gives administrators a fast and easy way to recover full systems to dissimilar hardware or virtual environments.
