NetBackup Appliances eliminate concerns about vendor lock-in because licenses are not coupled to the hardware.
When an organization licenses the NetBackup backup and restore software, it is licensed independently from the
appliance hardware. All NetBackup software licenses are also transferable to new hardware. If the organization
ever decides to return to building its own appliance, it can simply transfer the existing NetBackup license to the new
hardware. The reverse is also true: If an organization wants to move away from BYO appliances, it’s easy to transfer
existing licenses from existing BYO appliances to the NetBackup Appliance.

FAQ
BYO is deceptively complicated. In an effort to save on hardware costs, enterprises may acquire their own appliance hardware and backup and recovery
software only to discover the BYO decision has proven more costly and more inconvenient over the long term. Building
any backup and recovery appliance successfully requires not only installation of the backup and recovery software and
underlying appliance operating system software, but also installation of the correct I/O cards and proper integration
with the correct drivers. To ensure optimal speed, maximize storage and attain the best possible performance, the
integration of all components needs to be optimal as well. If they are not optimally integrated, the organization will not
use the hardware to its full capability and will have to purchase more hardware to make up the difference. Over time, the BYO appliance effort can turn into a much
larger initiative than anticipated, forcing the infrastructure team to switch its focus from managing the organization’s
complex environments to building, deploying, managing and securing appliances instead.
