HP today announced new disk-based backup systems with data deduplication technology that increases disk utilization by up to 50 times(1) to deliver scalable solutions that reduce storage costs and protect business critical data.
Data deduplication technology eliminates redundant data from a disk storage device to lower storage space requirements. The technology enables customers to reduce floor space and lower energy consumption by decreasing storage capacity requirements. It also helps them minimize administrative overhead by retaining data on disk for longer periods of time.
Data deduplication as a concept is something I’ve been reading about and talking about with some friends as well as when I met some of the guys from HP. The second url contains some information about data deduplication as a concept and is an interesting read. Interestingly, HP have announced some solutions based upon this concept which look very impressive not only in terms of reclaiming redundant storage, but in terms of energy efficiency. That I can use the storage I have more effectively, reducing the need to or regularity in which I have to purchase more storage could be a real enabler, the ability to scale my IT around the business, to enable and empower the end user, to do everything in the background has to be the way forward, do check it out.
