Key CapabilitiesArchitecture

VDP Minimizes Storage and Network Consumption with the Most Efficient Deduplication Capabilities

The most efficient deduplication

Variable-length – data is broken into sub-segments of variable length

Global – performed across all the VMs protected by the same virtual appliance

Client-side – within the VM for guest-level backup

Lowest storage and bandwidth consumption

Reduces storage consumption by up to 95%

Reduces impact on virtual network by up to 99%

Highest deduplication rates

On average 99% for file systems and 96% for databases

Capabilities

Benefits

VDP Reduces Backup and Recovery Times with Deduplicated Changed Block Tracking Full Backups

Changed Block Tracking (CBT) Support

Tracks changes made to VMs to backup only

changed blocks

Uses CBT in conjunction with variable-length

deduplication for backup

Uses CBT also for recovery

Shortest backup time

Minimizes network traffic and backup windows by

sending only truly unique daily changes

Shortest recovery time

Dramatically reduces recovery time by restoring

only the blocks changed since the last backup
