De-Duplication
Extreme Storage Dramatically Improves Operational Efficiency
De-Duplication is a powerful way to stretch your storage budget, reclaim capacity and gain operational efficiencies. 85% of today's storage growth is attributed to unstructured content. Often, these larger files such as video, images and email attachments are stored over and over again in multiple email accounts, network drives and geographic locations, consuming immense amounts of valuable disk capacity. Backing up all of these duplicate files lengthens backup jobs, consumes disk and/or tape capacity and clogs local and remote networks.
S2A Extreme Storage provides several options to eliminate multiple copies of the same file, while ensuring data is both protected and transparently accessible to multiple users. Depending on your environment, de-duplication can deliver significant reductions, as much as 30:1, dramatically improving both ROI and TCO metrics, while improving your operational efficiency.
