Dell PowerProtect DD9910 Backup & Deduplication Appliance

Flagship Backup Appliance — 130 TB/hr Throughput, 97.5 PB Logical, 65:1 Deduplication

The Dell PowerProtect DD9910 is Dell's flagship backup and deduplication appliance — the successor to the industry-defining Data Domain platform. With 130 TB/hour backup throughput, 97.5 PB logical capacity, a typical 65:1 deduplication ratio, and Cloud Tier extending to 293 PB, it is built for enterprise and service provider environments with the largest backup footprints.

  • 130 TB/hour backup throughput — 38% faster than previous generation
  • 97.5 PB logical capacity (293 PB with Cloud Tier)
  • Typical 65:1 deduplication ratio — market-leading efficiency
  • 1.5 PB usable capacity in a single rack (576 TB – 1.5 PB per appliance)
  • 44% faster restores — critical for meeting RTO targets
  • Cloud Tier: automatic tiering to AWS, Azure, GCP, or Dell ECS
  • Compatible with all major backup software — Veeam, Commvault, Veritas, IBM
  • DD Boost protocol reduces backup traffic by up to 50% from source

Key Features

Everything you need in one device

130 TB/hr Backup Performance

The DD9910 delivers 130 TB per hour of backup throughput — sufficient to protect petabyte-scale environments within tight backup windows. DD Boost client-side processing offloads deduplication computation to backup servers, reducing network traffic by up to 50%.

💾

65:1 Deduplication Efficiency

Inline deduplication with a typical 65:1 ratio dramatically reduces storage consumption for backup data. For a 1 PB logical backup dataset, the DD9910 typically stores just 15 TB of unique data — transforming backup economics at scale.

☁️

Cloud Tier Long-Term Retention

Cloud Tier automatically moves older backup data to Amazon S3, Azure Blob, Google Cloud Storage, or Dell ECS object storage — extending logical capacity to 293 PB while maintaining the same deduplication efficiency for moved data.

🔄

DD Replicator DR

Network-efficient replication between DD appliances using deduplication — only unique data segments are transmitted over WAN links, dramatically reducing replication bandwidth requirements compared to traditional backup replication.

🔒

Data Immutability

DD Retention Lock Governance and Compliance modes prevent backup data modification or deletion for configurable retention periods — meeting regulatory requirements and providing ransomware protection for backup data.

🔗

Universal Backup Software Support

Certified with Veeam Backup & Replication, Commvault, Veritas NetBackup, IBM Spectrum Protect, Dell PowerProtect Data Manager, and all other major backup applications — no vendor lock-in for backup software.

About the Dell PowerProtect DD9910

The Dell PowerProtect DD9910 is the flagship model in the PowerProtect DD family — the evolution of the legendary Data Domain platform that defined the deduplication appliance market. For organisations running the largest backup environments — service providers, global banks, healthcare networks, and government agencies — the DD9910 delivers the throughput and capacity needed to protect petabyte-scale production environments within realistic backup windows.

The 65:1 deduplication ratio is the defining characteristic of the DD platform. Unlike backup solutions that simply compress data, DD's inline deduplication algorithm identifies and eliminates redundant data segments globally across all backups in the system. Full backups look like incrementals from a storage consumption perspective — daily full backups of the same data consume only the changed segments, not a full copy each time.

Cloud Tier integration is now a standard feature of the DD9910, allowing organisations to tier backup data older than a configurable policy (e.g., backups older than 30 days) automatically to cloud object storage. The deduplication efficiency is maintained in the cloud tier — data is not re-hydrated before being written to cloud. This allows organisations to replace tape-based long-term retention with cloud object storage at a lower total cost.

Use Cases

Ideal for a wide range of deployments

🏢

Enterprise Backup Consolidation

Replace tape libraries and multiple backup targets with a single DD9910 — reducing management complexity and eliminating tape handling costs.

☁️

Hybrid Cloud DR

Cloud Tier to AWS or Azure for off-site retention; DD Replicator to a remote DD appliance for fast recovery — a complete hybrid cloud backup and DR strategy.

🔒

Ransomware-Proof Backup

DD Retention Lock prevents backup modification or deletion for regulatory or ransomware-protection retention periods — protecting the last line of defence against data loss.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is the difference between DD9910 and DD9910F?

DD9910F is the all-flash variant offering 272–544 TB usable capacity in a smaller footprint. DD9910 uses a hybrid (SSD + HDD) design reaching 576 TB – 1.5 PB usable capacity for larger environments. Both offer 65:1 deduplication.

Q. Does the DD9910 work with Veeam?

Yes — the DD9910 is certified with Veeam Backup & Replication. DD Boost for Veeam offloads deduplication processing to the Veeam media server, reducing backup windows and network traffic. The DD also presents as a Veeam-compatible backup target via NFS/CIFS.

Q. Can I use DD9910 Cloud Tier with Microsoft Azure?

Yes — Cloud Tier supports Azure Blob Storage as a target. Backup data is automatically tiered to Azure and remains deduplicated in the cloud, extending effective capacity to 293 PB total.
