Data Deduplication and Disk-to-Disk Backup Systems

Part 2: Business Considerations

Presenter: Heidi Biggar, Analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group

Data deduplication technology and D2D systems provide compelling operational and cost efficiencies, including simplified data mangement and dramatically reduced storage and bandwidth requirements. This on-demand webcast examines key business considerations for implementing deduplication:

Why D2D with data deduplication is becoming the preferred method for backup and recovery in local and remote applications
What technical 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

As an analyst for ESG, Heidi Biggar focuses on D2D backup solutions, including VTL, D2D appliances, and CDP solutions. Heidi is a veteran of the storage industry and former senior technical editor at InfoStor magazine.

“Data deduplication is a powerful form of virtualization—the ability to logically view and manage physical assets for greater utilization and automation of otherwise manual tasks. Data deduplication achieves both of these goals by significantly reducing the amount of capacity required to store backup data—5:1, 10:1, 20:1 and beyond. Additionally, data deduplication reduces or even eliminates the need to manage tapes. Dealing with tape media management is archaic in this digital age. It is analogous to someone still stubbornly hand washing the dishes even though he or she has dishwasher right next to the sink.”
