WikitipDeduplication evaluation criteriaInstallations evaluating remote backup and recovery services must establish a robust process for looking at the impact of inserting site de-duplication technologies. This should be done on an application-by-application level (or by major application groupings). Evaluation criteria should include recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO), as well as cost and risk. The hard question “what happens when the de-duplication technology fails” must be asked, answered and planned for from a contingency perspective. This process should include strong input from corporate risk officers and the line of business. |
Featured Case StudyFinancial giant goes greenThe corporate IT group of a very large, worldwide financial organization with 100,000 employees, has initiated an ongoing “greening” process. This is focused largely on reducing energy use both to decrease the corporation's carbon footprint while creating a net savings in operational costs over the lifetime of new, more energy-efficient equipment, including new storage systems. |

Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012. |
