Re: [Networker] DataDomain competitors
2010-09-03 10:21:57
We've been running a FalconStor VTL and SIR (Single Instance Repository)
for over 2 years, with excellent results. To Networker, it's presented
as a standard SCSI Jukebox.
I find Networker much easier to manage with this model, as data is going
to "tape" rather than AFTD. I also prefer FalconStor's post process
deduplication model, ensuring we don't have any bottle necks during the
backup window. There are some excellent replication tools incorporated
in the system. Unlike many appliances, where the deduplicated data
repository is not shared among devices, FalconStor's repository is
presented globally, and shared among multiple systems for excellent
scalability.

Hello NetWorker list.
I am keen on your advice regarding deduplication devices for NetWorker backup
environments.
I am all into doing with DataDomain, both VTL and NFS ways. However, not to
blindfold myself to much - are there any competitors, which could compare with
DataDomain today?
I would appreciate any suggestions on other devices with similar or near
functionality as DataDomain.
