The exponential growth of data and the corresponding challenges of data protection have made data de-duplication a viable option for dramatically reducing back-up storage needs while also providing data replication assistance for disaster recovery. Combining MAID (Massive Array of Idle Disks) technology with de-duplication offers a powerful alternative to tape-based solutions and the associated challenges and risks of tape media management, security vulnerability, lower performance and reliability.

Download this white paper to discover a complete solution that combines de-duplication with MAID and enables you to analyze data as it is stored, detect duplicated data elements, and create referential information that supports retrieval of the data in its original form and then stores it all on MAID.
