It's no wonder businesses are coming to Windstream Hosted Solutions for High-Touch Data Deduplication Services. Storage and bandwidth spending is ballooning at many companies. The concept of data deduplication is simple: our inline deduplication appliances within our state-of-the-art data centers compare segments of your incoming data to previously stored data. Instead of rewriting duplicates, it writes a marker pointing to the original-an intelligent ditto mark that yields eye-opening savings!

Think about how quickly duplicate data unnecessarily consumes storage space. For example, suppose 181 sales reps receive a new 7.7 Mb PowerPoint deck today. That's about 1.5 Gb less storage space tomorrow-gone just like that.

If you store large volumes of data on disk or send large volumes of data across the wire, data deduplication is an ideal cost-cutting measure.

Data Deduplication Benefits

  • See gains of 30-70% in freed storage space
  • Lower costs of disk acquisition, power, space and cooling-and reduce your IT operations carbon footprint
  • Cut bandwidth costs by sending smaller volumes of data over the wire for remote backups, replication and disaster recovery
  • Improve RTOs (Recovery Time Objectives) and reduce tape backups thanks to longer disk retention
  • As you would expect, there's no duplication of effort required on your part
