About the Dell APEX Protection Plus — PowerProtect DD9900 Backup Appliance

The Dell APEX Protection Plus PowerProtect DD9900 is Dell EMC's flagship deduplication backup appliance, engineered for hyperscale data protection in regulated enterprise environments. The system delivers up to 1.5 PB of usable capacity with inline deduplication, compression, and immutable snapshots, providing ransomware recovery isolation and air-gapped backup architecture without external network dependencies.

DD9900 architecture incorporates Dell's PowerProtect DD operating system with advanced encryption, WORM (Write-Once-Read-Many) enforcement, and replication capabilities for disaster recovery. The appliance supports heterogeneous backup environments including VMware, Hyper-V, physical servers, databases, and cloud workloads through native connectors and industry-standard protocols (CIFS, NFS, NDMP, VTL).

Purpose-built for financial services, government, and critical infrastructure sectors requiring compliance with UAE CBUAE and NESA frameworks, the DD9900 serves as a dedicated recovery vault with predictable restore performance and comprehensive audit logging for forensic investigation post-incident.

Ideal for

  • Ransomware recovery vault for banking and financial services with immutable snapshot retention and isolated recovery environments
  • Air-gapped backup repository for government agencies and defense contractors under CBUAE/NESA compliance mandates
  • Hyperscale enterprise backup consolidation across multi-site datacenters with inline deduplication and WAN optimization
  • Disaster recovery platform with asynchronous replication to secondary DD9900 appliances across geographic regions
  • Secure backup archive for regulated industries (healthcare, insurance) requiring 7+ year data retention with tamper-evident access logs
  • Virtual machine and database protection at scale for large organizations with 10,000+ VMs and multi-petabyte backup estates
