Key Features
Deduplication Options
Deduplication for image backup:
Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 is the only backup software that provides deduplication for image based
backup. Only unique 4k blocks of data are stored on a Storage Node.
Deduplication for file backup:
For file-level backup only unique files are stored on a Storage Node.
Deduplication at source:
In addition to savings of storage capacity for backups, deduplication on a Client provides the benefit of reducing
the network traffic because only unique blocks or files are sent from a Client to a Storage Node.
Deduplication at target:
If CPU on a backup Client is a bigger constraint than network bandwidth, Acronis gives you the option to perform
deduplication on a Storage Node instead of providing deduplication on a Client.
Support for virtual environments
Since Virtual Machines are often very similar to each other, deduplication works well for virtual environments.
Security of deduplicated data
Deduplicated data on Acronis Storage Node could be encrypted using storage industry standard 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit AES
encryption.
Manageability
Deduplication can be performed on a Client or on a Storage Node with just a few clicks. Backup policies don’t have to be changed
because Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Deduplication works for full, incremental and differential backups.
