“The ability to replicate has solved so many of our problems. Before, we were always worrying if we had all of our tape media accounted for. Now, every single virtual tape we create is automatically replicated to our DR site. There’s no way that we can miss something. Not many solutions can do that.” See also: Case Study |
|
“Moving off VTL and adding Data Domain deduplication storage has enabled us to reallocate a lot of space and has saved us a significant amount in future storage costs. I would estimate about 40 to 50TB of space saved for the coming year.” See also: Case Study |
