Avamar

Data de-duplication backup solution

De-duplication backup offers extreme saving potentials for data protection tasks through eliminating duplicates on block level. The solution already reduces the size of backup data at the source, before transferring it over the network. This results in a great reduction of bandwidth needed and data to be backed up. Therefore existing infrastructure can continue to be used even with rising data volumes. Shrinking backup windows and limited backup space are no issue any more.

Fujitsu offers Avamar – a complete solution for de-duplication data protection. Backup data is retrieved and de-duplicated by Avamar agents installed on client systems (Application servers and file servers), transferred over the network and stored on internal disks of the central Avamar solution. Avamar utilizes patented global data de-duplication technology to identify redundant data at the source, minimizing backup data before it is sent over the LAN/WAN. Since the data reduction is done at the client side, this solution fits very well for branch office backup and VMware environments, while reducing the amount of time required for backups, the growth of secondary storage, and network utilization.
Scenarios and benefits:
 
  • Remote office/branch office backup

  • Achieve data protection across existing IP WANs

  • Centralize management

  • Accelerate backup by reducing amount of transferred data
    VMware backup

  • Reduce backup impact on physical machines

  • De-duplicate within and across virtual machines, at VMware Consolidated Backup and ESX Service Console
