Overview: Assess the value of Deduplication for your storage consolidation initiatives today!

Enterprises are caught between the continued growth in the amount of data they create, store, and depend on, and the need to consolidate IT resources to reduce costs and create a more 'green' IT environment. But while organizations have worked to reduce IT footprint, they must balance the need to improve resource utilization with more efficient protection and recovery capabilities, all in the face of increasing capacity pressures.

In this paper you will learn about:
 Consolidation strategies at the datacenter, server, and storage system levels, including the use of virtualization
 How deduplication can help drive efficient storage consolidation, as well as improve data protection and disaster recovery under heavy workload conditions

Deduplication is a rapidly emerging technology that can dramatically improve enterprise storage system performance, minimize capacity requirements and speed up data recovery. While deduplication could provide benefits to essentially any organization, some are more ready than others for this technology. By completing the included worksheet, IT management can determine its organization's readiness for deduplication.
