Acronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Deduplication
Acronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Deduplication saves storage costs and network bandwidth
The Acronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Deduplication option provides affordable file and block level software deduplication capability for workstations and servers, helping organizations of all sizes maximize use of their storage infrastructure, while saving costs and increasing capacity.
With the Acronis deduplication option, cut data storage requirements by 90% or more, by eliminating replicas of the same file or block on either the source or target. If data already exists on the storage node, then only a link is created to associate the data with the backup client.
The Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Deduplication module integrates with any Acronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Advanced product.
Resource and Cost Savings
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Deduplication brings storage-efficient backup and recovery to organizations of all sizes. It helps IT administrators save on costs in four ways:
- Priced per machine, rather than by storage capacity or number of CPUs.
- Reduces the volume of disk storage needed for backups
- Increases the number of backups you can save within existing data storage
- Frees network data transmission bandwidth and optimizes data transfer speeds
Top Benefits
Lower overall cost of storage
By eliminating redundant data being backed up, store less data and save on storage space and operation costs
Promotes a "greener" IT operations
Deduplicated data is more environmentally efficient because it reduces the amount of electricity consumed and equipment needed to backup IT environments.
Faster recoveries
Tight integration with Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Advanced Editions reduces recovery times to minutes.
Allows IT administrators to meet Federal and corporate compliance requirements more efficiently
These requirements can create massive additional amounts of data, and deduplication reduces the cost of maintaining it.
Fast return on investment
Purchasing Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Deduplication pays for itself quickly through a combination of reduced:
- Electrical consumption
- Server and disk purchases
- IT facility floor space
- Administrative overhead
Key Features
Fully integrated with Acronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Advanced Editions
By integrating deduplication functionality with protection for servers and workstations, a machine failure won’t force IT administrators to carry out a time-consuming rebuild before one can regain access to deduplicated data. Acronis integration enables recoveries of systems in minutes, rather than hours or days. Compare this with deduplication offerings from other vendors whose deduplication products are incompatible with their backup and recovery products: a system failure may make deduplicated files inaccessible for hours, perhaps days.
Multi-type backups
Deduplication can be applied to full, incremental and differential backups.
Sensible cost
Some companies price their deduplication products by the amount of data that is deduplicated, making it difficult to gauge the total cost of ownership. Pricing for AAcronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Deduplication is per protected machine, bringing this capability to both large and small organizations.
Uses commodity storage hardware
As a software-only solution, Acronis bypasses the need for costly proprietary hardware.
Easy to use
Acronis deduplication functions are carefully designed for simplicity of operation, and we feature page-based navigation to reduce the need for extensive training.
Highly secure
Deduplication data stores need special protection so they cannot be compromised. Acronis stores deduplication components separately, with special safeguards to prevent direct deletions of multi-instance data. You may also encrypt deduplicated data and limit vault access only to those having password access.
Source or target deduplication
Pick where the deduplication process is done, at either the source or target machine.
