Deduplication Is the Enabler
Move and store less data
1. Divides data into variable-length sub-file
segments
2. Determines if segments are unique or duplicate
3. Backs up only unique data
4. Sends data compressed and encrypted

Voice of the Customer
Improves Backup Time 36x
“Before we implemented Avamar, our full tape backups would run for more
than 72 hours and often included failed backups. Now, after completely
eliminating tape from our environment and with Avamar, we have achieved
92% data deduplication with Avamar, and most of our backups complete in
just two hours.”
“We’re basically virtualizing everything we can with VMware. Avamar helps us
manage this transition more efficiently and reliably by giving us a standard
way to manage both physical and virtual backups.”
“The Avamar NAS solution has been absolutely bulletproof. Our end users
no longer have slowdowns in system performance because a weekend
backup ran into Monday morning.”

Summary
• Comprehensive backup and recovery for:
– Virtual, NAS, enterprise applications,
remote office and desktop/laptops
 Deduplicated daily full backups
– Shorten backup/recovery times
– Improve bandwidth efficiency
– Shrink storage requirements
• One-step recovery is fast and easy
• Purpose-built backup appliance
– Turnkey solution; reliability designed in
