White Papers: network bandwidth

Data deduplication is dramatically improving IT economics by minimizing storage footprint requirements, backup windows, and network bandwidth consumption in distributed enterprises and datacenter locations alike. In real-world environments, deduplication is accelerating backup and recovery efficiency and driving down IT costs. This white paper looks at the various approaches to deduplication for backup data and outlines the considerations in selecting a solution. It also highlights EMC's portfolio of deduplication offerings for backup and recovery and explores specific use cases for optimal backup efficiency and cost reduction.
