The total cost of ownership for most data protection strategies typically becomes overwhelming with the costs of additional licenses, operating system and application agents, and antivirus costs.  And with most traditional approaches, the cost does not stop there.  Costly professional services to set up the extra infrastructure needed often introduces server sprawl and data protection silos that do not meet basic recovery time objectives (RTO).

When leveraging a purpose-built data protection offering that leverages the Nutanix platform, there is no need for additional infrastructure, licenses or professional services. This simplified approach leverages the intelligence of the Nutanix data protection layer allowing for IT to focus on applications and services, not backup. See how to avoid hidden costs and leverage this simplified approach to data protection here.
