Data Domain DD500 Series: Deduplication Storage For Large, Distributed Data Centers
Today's traditional disk backup systems go no further than providing a front-end to a tape library infrastructure with a fast cache, temporarily alleviating backup window problems. They fail to replace tape automation technology because they lack the requisite economic and operational qualities. Traditional disk cannot cost efficiently retain backup data for any length of time, and backup data is too large to be replicated over a Wide Area Network (WAN).
Data Domain has revolutionized disk backup and remote office data protection with patented high-speed, inline deduplication. Backup data can be reduced in size by an average of 20x, so disk backup storage is now cost-effective for long-term onsite retention and highly efficient for network-based replication to disaster recovery sites.
