What is Data De-Duplication? – An Analogy How many times does the word “THE” appear in a sentence, a chapter, an entire book, a library? Data is not unlike words in print, only instead of words, data uses strings of 1’s and 0’s. A book may contain 4 million words in it, but only 200, 000 different words, 3. 8 million words are repeats. Some of them, hundreds or thousands of times. The Amount of de-duplication possible in your data center is in line with these numbers…. Its staggering “Would you rather copy 200, 000 or 4 million words every day? ” © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Joe Staiber 3

How it Works Simple Example of Global, Source Data De-duplication Data Center First Instance Duplicate Instance A Only unique data segments are backed up B C D Remote Site 1 Data already backed up, so only unique IDs stored (20 byte pointers) A B C D Modified Instance E Remote Site 2 New data segment identified and backed up E De-duplication Server © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.

Where can De-Duplication Occur? IT’S NOT JUST IN BACKUP!!!!!! De-Dup is theoretically possible ANYWHERE But it comes with a price…. Processing, latency, bandwidth, and most importantly TIME Who does the actual processing? Storage Array? Software? Backup Server? Tape Device / VTL? © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.

De-Duplication Concepts: Prominent Use Cases Where is De-Duplication being applied today? Backup – address significant inefficiency & cost due to redundant data – – Integrated end-to-end backup software stack B 2 D H/W Target component for incumbent backup environments Archive Applications and Platforms – efficient retention over time – Low cost, “acceptable performance” secondary storage for mid-term retention, where regulatory compliance is not required – As an efficiency feature in compliant archive (e. g. Centera) Primary Storage - “Capacity Optimized” ILM tier – Block and file for tier 2 applications – Different performance and cost characteristics Replication – Save bandwidth & time by moving less data – Inherent in most storage use case solutions – Also found in WAAS/WAFS solutions © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.

Different Vendors De-Dup in Different Places Lets look at the Vendors who play in this equation What happens when the backup application does the de-dup? (such as Commvault) EMC, HP Net. App, IBM Etc etc Primary Storage SAN/NAS – Do we need DD or Exagrid to do it again? No we don't What happens when the primary SAN does it? (Net. App & EMC Celerra) Backup Application Data De-dupe Symantec Commvault Etc etc – Do we need Commvault or DD to do it again? No we don’t And if they did, they would have to “un-dedup (rehydrate) the data to even be able to read it!!! © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!! Primary Storage SAN/NAS Data De-dupe Backup Application Data De-dupe EMC IS THE ONLY COMPANY THAT MANUFACTURES PRODUCTS IN EVERY SECTION OF THE DEDUPLICATION MARKET EMC is ready and capable in leveraging deduplication across the spectrum What happens to vendors like Data Domain and Commvault, when the data is already de-duplicated? ? ?

What is Most Impactful to You TODAY? Backup is still the best and most efficient application for De-Dup today It is proven and available It is out of the production window There are several ways to De-Duplicate data in a backup environment But first, lets define the backup challenge we all are facing… TARGET DE-DUPLICATION B B Backup Server B B B SOURCE DE-DUPLICATION B De-Dup Device De-duplication Device © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.

Why an Integrated Solution? HARDWARE ONLY SOLUTIONS: (Data Domain / Exagrid) – As software is now performing the De-Duplication, the hardware de-duplication is NO LONGER required (This is now the case with Symantec, Commvault v 8, and Avamar) SOFTWARE ONLY SOLUTIONS: (Symantec, Commvault, etc) – As primary storage arrays begin to utilize Data De-Duplication technologies, the Backup Software is not aware and its value diminishes if the data is already in a De-Duplicated state. Re-Hydration would be required. (This is already the case with Net. App and Celerra NAS based De-Dup and there are more to come) EMC is the ONLY vendor in the De-Duplication space that manufactures Primary Storage, Backup Software and Backup Hardware. – Regardless of where the de-duplication occurs, EMC is ready and capable to leverage and optimize it. EMC|Avamar is the only vendor to utilize variable length segments when deduplicating data. It will ALWAYS store less, send less and backup faster! “What vendor do you want to make a strategic investment in? ” Ask these vendors what their strategy is, as data is already de-duplicated before it gets to their product… © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.

In Summary File System and VMWare benefits of Source De-Dup alone, justify the investment You can start SMALL with Avamar (single use) and grow it easily into a full integrated enterprise solution Source Based De-Duplication makes the Difference, beware of the values of a Target Based De-Dup Competitive Solutions around De-Dup have value, but understand the differences. They are Band-Aid’s not long term solutions EMC has the ONLY broad based De-Dup strategy that will grow and continue to add value as De-Dup stretches into new areas © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.
