Data de-duplication eliminates redundant data, saving valuable storage space, also it may be deployed via hardware- or software-based approaches-each having advantages and trade-offs. 

As storage capacity needs grow in SMBs, disk is increasingly being used as a backup storage target. In this FAQ, Executive Editor and Independent Backup Expert W. Curtis Preston, discusses the role of disk-based backup in the SMB space. Curtis takes a closer look at the benefits and cost differentiators of moving from tape to disk for data backup. 

This document describes the basic concepts and integration guidelines for FalconStor FDS in an EMC NetWorker environment. The document is intended to provide an architectural overview of FalconStor FDS being used with EMC NetWorker and the benefits of a combined solution. 

With all protocols and storage features included in the cost of the system, Sun claims its new unified platform delivers significant performance gains and cost benefits versus proprietary unified storage solutions. 

In this podcast, see how a revolutionary solid-state storage technology is supercharging Microsoft Exchange, helping users get more performance and reliability for less. It helps Exchange users get the most out of every dollar by making it possible to support more mailboxes per mailstore, increase access times and decrease backup and recovery times 

In this white paper, you will learn about some of the underlying technology and architecture behind the capabilities of Concentric Managed Backup. Technical decision-makers should come away from this document with a deeper knowledge of the Concentric Managed Backup platform and its overall architecture. 

In this presentation transcript, Brian Greenberg, President and CEO, General System Dynamics, explores the distinctions between scale-out and scale-up systems, major use cases for this technology and an assessment of new scale-out/clustered storage systems from major vendors. 

This transcript documents a presentation featuring Brad Blake, Director, IT at Boston Medical Center. Mr. Blake will discuss how he initially started working with Data Domain as part of a VMware project. The meat of his presentation focuses on architecting deduplication and virtualisation for best of breed data protection. 

Flash storage is now a top contender for new enterprise storage applications. The I/O randomization caused by widespread virtual machine adoption demands higher I/O performance. Faster than disks, cheaper than DRAM, flash is occupying a new layer in the storage pyramid. Read this paper to further investigate flash storage.
