Deduplication Overview
Deduplication provides an efficient method to transmit and store data by identifying and eliminating duplicate blocks of data during
backups.
Deduplication offers the following benefits:
• Optimizes use of storage media by eliminating duplicate blocks of data.
• Reduces network traffic by sending only unique data during backup operations.

LIVE RECOVERY METHODOLOGIES
Live Browse &
Live File Recovery
Granular File Restore from
Snaps, Backups or VM
archives without need for
metadata collection
…reduce backup times without sacrificing
the capability to recover files on a
granular basis – ideal for scenarios such
as large VM file servers
Feature Description Use Cases (allows users to…)
Live Mount
Power Up VMs directly from
Snaps/Backup copies of the
VM image
…access application level data with
mining Tools. Instantly validate VM
copies for DR / patch / dev /test with a
non-persistent VM
Live Sync
After backup of a VM,
changes are transmitted to
replicated VM and applied,
providing an instantly
available copy
…create and instantly access standby
VMs with the highest RPO / RTO
requirements - Business Continuance
/ DR Scenarios
Live Recovery
For Virtual Machines
Near Instant Access to VM
while Storage vMotion copies
the VM into production in the
background
…access and utilize VMs more quickly
during a recovery operation, while
reconciling changes to the recovered VM
RESTORING VIRTUAL MACHINES WITH LIVE RECOVERY
Selected VM can be powered on during
recovery phase: Running VM can be access
during this time. Any changes made will be
reconciled to production VM once recovery is
complete

    LIVE RECOVERY METHODOLOGIES LiveBrowse & Live File Recovery Granular File Restore from Snaps, Backups or VM archives without need for metadata collection …reduce backup times without sacrificing the capability to recover files on a granular basis – ideal for scenarios such as large VM file servers Feature Description Use Cases (allows users to…) Live Mount Power Up VMs directly from Snaps/Backup copies of the VM image …access application level data with mining Tools. Instantly validate VM copies for DR / patch / dev /test with a non-persistent VM Live Sync After backup of a VM, changes are transmitted to replicated VM and applied, providing an instantly available copy …create and instantly access standby VMs with the highest RPO / RTO requirements - Business Continuance / DR Scenarios Live Recovery For Virtual Machines Near Instant Access to VM while Storage vMotion copies the VM into production in the background …access and utilize VMs more quickly during a recovery operation, while reconciling changes to the recovered VM
