This recent research paper by TheInfoPro goes in depth as to why deduplication has sustained its #1 position on the TIP Storage Backup and Recovery Technology Heat Index®. 15% of storage organizations have already deployed deduplication technology and 59% of storage organizations are planning to deploy “dedupe” by the end of 2008. Managing storage growth, capacity reporting and planning, and backup management are the top pain points for most storage organizations.
