Polling Question – How Far Down The deduplication road Are You?
What is Deduplication?
What Are The Dedupe Use Cases
● Backup (software-devices)
● Hardware
● Software
● Archive
● Long term retention
● WAN
● Bandwidth reduction
● Primary Storage
Why The All Flash Appeal?
How Do Vendors Develop?
● Build Your Own
● Leverage Existing Code/File Systems (ZFS)
● Leverage an API Set
● Leverage a File System Extension
What Are The Flash Dedupe Challenges?
● Performance Impact
● Extra process that gets in the way of I/O
● Increases Cost
● More processing power and RAM consumption
● Increases Data Vulnerability
● Hash table corruption
How Do We Overcome These Challenges?
