EMC Backup with Data Deduplication solutions identify and eliminate redundant data so that you store it only once. With Backup with Data Deduplication solutions, you can address exploding data growth and deduplicate at the right place—production source or backup target—and time—immediately or scheduled—to achieve maximum back end storage reduction and optimal performance.
Source-based data deduplication is ideal for VMware and remote office backup by reducing infrastructure impact. Policy-based target data deduplication provides flexibility to deduplicate immediately at backup, schedule for later to achieve maximum performance, or turn-off deduplication for data that doesn’t profile well. In fact, you can manage all three options through a common interface to drive further efficiencies.
