Expert Insight: Going Green With D2D Backup
By George Crump, Founder and President, Storage Switzerland
"Of all the efforts toward streamlined D2D, inline data de-duplication systems are the 'go to' technology when trying to improve backup processes and power utilization. Data deduplication addresses power, cooling, and space consumption challenges by optimizing disk capacity and storing more data in less space."

Why Data Domain

“We are averaging compression of 25-45x, which allows us to keep a significant amount of data online. Data is verified at time of write, so we can be confident that out backups are good. We can do reliable restores in a very short period of time.The cost savings have been much more than we had anticipated.”
