This Technology Brief discusses different approaches to data deduplication in the market today along with the pros and cons of each, and then matches some of the most common backup problems to a recommended deduplication approach. The brief close with a spotlight on Quantum's DXi7500 enterprise disk backup and replication system 

Stanley Elevator needed to overcome storage capacity constraints as well as data protection and management challenges posed by its direct-attached storage (DAS) and legacy server environment. Read here how Dell helped them achieve their goals. 

An efficient storage solution is integral to a successful VDI implementation. With a Fluid Data architecture and integrated software features such as Automated Tiered Storage, Thin Provisioning, Continuous Snapshots and Remote Replication, the Dell Compellent Storage Center SAN proves to be a highly effective storage option for VMware View. 

With the recent profusion of tiered storage solutions into the enterprise storage market, organizations are increasingly adopting tiering strategies to accommodate rapid data growth while controlling costs. Yet most solutions fail to maximize the potential benefits of tiered storage. Read this white paper to learn more. 

This white paper explains the differences between the de-duplication approaches, discusses the strengths and limitations of each, shows how different backup tasks are likely to benefit from them, and talks about the business benefits. 

The DXi7500 is the disk backup and remote replication system for data centers where a premium is placed on scalability, performance, high availability, and flexibility. 

For every area of your datacenter, Sun Professional Services has created a tailored assessment service. 

When Baker & McKenzie’s tape-based data protection strategy reached its limits, they decided to switch to a centralized backup solution with a DXi deduplication appliance as the foundation. Read this case study to learn why Baker & McKenzie decided to go with Quantum’s solution to handle their backup and recovery needs. 

As a consequence of tightening budgets and increasing uncertainties, government organizations are looking at how to leverage cloud computing as a model to ensure greater flexibility, lower costs, more-rapid provisioning and greater focus on areas that are more domain-specific. 

Explore the new storage features in VMware vSphere 5.0 that can help your organization reduce complexity while achieving greater scalability. Discover how Storage DRS simplifies provisioning of VMs and monitoring of the storage environment with smart virtual machine placement and load balancing mechanisms based on I/O and space capacity. 

Virtualization and cloud computing are driving the need to deliver enterprise IT as a service. Explore how the HP 3PAR Utility Storage addresses the key weaknesses of existing storage architectures, such as growing capacity requirements, underutilization of existing storage assets, and administrative inefficiency. 

This case study follows the journey taken by BMC Software to find the solution to their expanding VMware storage needs in the data-center and remote offices. In this paper, you'll learn about the solutions considered, how they arrived at the final decision and the benefits realized by using cloud integrated enterprise storage. Read on to learn more
