White Paper

Description:
Current approaches to data center consolidation are limited in scope as well as scalability. The period when your organization is making consolidation decisions is an excellent time to consider upgrading your traditional backup solution to one that employs the efficient data protection paradigm. This will alleviate stresses throughout your entire IT infrastructure, enhance performance, improve protection, reduce hardware purchases, and successfully position you for future growth.

Stated simply, inefficient backup both underlies the need for deduplication and imposes debilitating limitations on virtualization.

Deduplication solutions exist solely because of inefficiencies in traditional data protection. That is, traditional backup results in multiple copies of the entire IT environment on secondary storage. Explosive data growth has made those multiples larger than ever, and the need for faster backup performance to accommodate more data has necessitated the move from tape backup to more expensive disk backup.The result is that secondary disk data reduction has became an unwished for necessity.

Furthermore, as many organizations that have attempted virtualization know, server virtualization projects are routinely jeopardized by inefficiencies in traditional backup and restore.
