CA ARCserve Backup Data Deduplication Feature CA ARCserve Backup now includes a next generation patent-pending data deduplication technology built
using highly efficient deduplication algorithms that help eliminate redundant data resulting in extended
for additional storage. CA ARCserve Backup Data Deduplication uses an in-line process occurring at the
backup target that compares backups with previously stored data at the block-level resulting in
considerable data reduction (up to 95% or more) it is highly efficient thus reducing the impact on
the CPU during the backup process and does not affect the production servers being backed up.
Benefits include:
- Reduced physical storage required providing efficient usage of disks for backups
- Easy to manage, configure, and integrate into existing backup environments
- Provides data deduplication efficiency reports: Deduplication Promotion Report and Deduplication
Status Report, which display the estimated savings of backup space, and the number of nodes backed up using a deduplication device - Optimization feature, for better throughputs and decreased CPU usage
- Global deduplication feature identifies redundancy between the backup jobs performed on the
root directories of two different computers - Rapid ROI to help save money immediately
Your business benefits
CA ARCserve Backup now provides a next generation deduplication capability that has been designed to
efficiently eliminate redundant data from your backup data sets – and it is provided at no additional cost
to you. The significant reductions in backup space requirements enable you to fit more backups on the
same physical disk and retain data for longer time periods or extend the use of your existing storage
investment.
