Data Deduplication and Disk-to-Disk Backup Systems: Technical and Business Considerations

What you need to know-and ask-before implementing data deduplication solutions

While disk-to-disk (D2D) backup systems have been widely accepted as functionally superior to tape, they still carry a significant cost penalty. However, with the addition of data deduplication technology, D2D systems now provide compelling operational and cost efficiencies, thanks to increased manageability and reduced storage and bandwidth needs. In this vendor-neutral report, you will learn:

Why D2D with data deduplication is becoming the preferred method for backup and recovery in local and remote applications
What technical and business questions you need to ask your vendor before considering these solutions
How to conduct a data deduplication ROI analysis
How the Total Cost of Recovery for deduplication-enabled D2D systems is far less than tape

“Data de-duplication offers landscape changing value that is easy to quantify, improves reliability, simplifies management and provides rapid recovery of data.”

—Tony Asaro and Heidi Biggar, ESG, July 2007
