VDP Advanced provides the most efficient backup capabilities using unique variable-length deduplication and simple management through native integration with vCenter Server and the vSphere Web client. It is capable of storing up to 8TB of deduplicated data per virtual appliance, and can safely backup environments of several hundred virtual machines.

Key features:

• Unique variable-length deduplication: Reduces backup storage consumption by up to 75 percent compared to fixed-length deduplication (a $60,000 savings on storage TCO per year for 200 VMs)
• Granular and application-consistent backup for Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server and SharePoint
• Integration with data domain: Increased capacity, further reduced storage consumption, and faster performance

• Changed-block tracking backup and restore: Six times faster recovery than full-image restore
• Network-efficient, secure backup replication for disaster recovery
• Automated backup verification: Assured recoverable backup

• Easy to install, easy to use
• vSphere integration: Gives instant and complete visibility into your entire vSphere infrastructure
