Data replication and DR solutions

The impact of disk based replication of deduplicated data has a profound impact on backup architectures and their role in disaster recovery. The traditional backup environment today uses offsite vaulting for tape, and disk or host based replication for more aggressive disaster recovery capabilities. The role of backup in disaster recovery can be significantly enhanced through any combination of backup software or hardware deduplication and replication schemes.
