EVault's enhanced DeltaPro technology offers improved data backup and restoration performance - up to 1000 times faster than previous versions. The EVault agent accepts a backup stream of data from the iSeries server via an application programming interface. The agent software then parses the data stream, applying efficient algorithms to minimize detectable data changes. This minimizes the total amount of data transferred over the wire, resulting in a faster backup and reduced amount of data stored on the vault.
