Pillar Data Systems Introduces Data De-Duplication with FalconStor Software, Diligent Technologies and Symantec
October 2007 by Marc Jacob
Enterprises are seeing rapid storage growth - both inside and outside of the data center – posing a challenge to traditional data protection methodologies. In order to address these issues, Pillar Data Systems has expanded its strategic reseller relationship with to deliver a variety of data de-duplication capabilities. These strengthened relationships will enable better backup capabilities allowing companies to dramatically increase the overall efficiency of their data centers.
As a testament to the importance of data de-duplication for overall backup solutions, several analysts have recognized the vital role the technology will play in enterprises’ data protection strategies. Most recently, in an Enterprise Strategy Group report, analysts noted that data de-duplication is an ideal technique to optimize physical storage and bandwidth by using less of each to protect data. This reduces cost and capacity requirements, which translates as less bandwidth being required to move and copy that data across the WAN .
As part of these relationships, the award-winning Pillar Axiom is now fully integrated with FalconStor VirtualTape Library (VTL) and is fully interoperable with Data Domain Gateway Series, Diligent PortecTIER software, and Symantec’s Veritas NetBackup Pure Disk De-Duplication technology. By working with each of these companies, Pillar now brings one of the widest range and choice of de-duplication options on the market today.
Pillar will also build on its existing work with all four companies for joint customer training and sales opportunities.
