Overview:
Deduplication software has been shown to reduce the amount of backup data stored in typical environments by a ratio of 20:1 - significantly lowering the amount of backup storage media required. Operational impacts include the ability to retain data for longer periods of time, decreased bandwidth for remote backups, and more comprehensive disaster recovery policies. However, deciding how to implement deduplication requires a better understanding of the alternatives available.
