Dell SharePoint Infrastructure Optimization with AvePoint

This white paper provides an overview of Dell’s SharePoint Infrastructure Optimization solution. Details of the solution stack, which includes components of AvePoint’s DocAve Software Platform and Dell hardware components, are discussed along with the set of functional and performance tests that were used to verify the solution.

Abstract:

Dell’s SharePoint Infrastructure Optimization solution takes a comprehensive Microsoft® SharePoint® infrastructure approach which consolidates SharePoint unstructured content, backup, and archive datasets on the Dell™ DX Object Storage Platform, thus improving end user performance, enabling better manageability, reducing capital and operational expenditures and increasing SharePoint service quality.

In this white paper a solution overview is provided, followed by details of the solution stack which includes components of AvePoint®’s DocAve® Software Platform and Dell hardware components. Finally, the set of functional and performance tests that were used to verify the solution are described, along with results.

After externalization of large content such as Word documents, PDFs, etc., from the SharePoint SQL Server database to the Dell DX Object Storage Platform using the DocAve Extender component, backing up a SharePoint site collection was 29x faster than backing up the non-externalized site collection, and restoring it was 32x faster. Routine SharePoint operations (browse, search, upload, and download) were 17% – 40% faster once this large content was moved to the external storage.
