As we all saw in 2009, there is clearly no such thing as a data recession. Storage demands continue to grow exponentially – even as the budgets and resources available to satisfy those demands shrink. On top of that, storage consumes more power than every other part of the data center and, as a result, likely consumes the most of your organization’s time, money, and resources as well. And with every eye in the company on ROI and cost containment this year, reducing the demands on your storage systems is a high priority in 2010. So it’s no surprise that, within the last year, “deduplication” has moved from a “hot topic” and industry buzzword, to organizations of all kinds having data reduction technologies implemented in their storage environment – or at least strongly considering a deduplication project. However, like any new technology, you need information to ensure success – and to make deployment less of a gamble. And, in its 3rd year, Storage Decisions’ Data Deduplication seminar provides this independent information that helps you select the appropriate deduplication system for your environment and to establish best practices around that system. Seating for this breakfast seminar is free for qualified IT professionals, but extremely limited. To claim your seat, apply today by calling Seminar Manager Ryan Hawley at (781) 429-4151 or complete our quick online application. Deduplication School – entirely updated for 2010 to reflect deduplication’s widespread adoption - focuses on the changes and advancements in dedupe in the last year, how recent major acquisitions affect the options in the dedupe marketplace, and on optimizing your deduplication deployments to maximize restore speeds while reducing costs and increasing productivity.
