However, there are some important technological and business issues organizations should consider when evaluating products to ensure a "best fit" today and in the future.
This paper is second in the two-part ESG Series: "Data De-duplication and Disk-to-Disk Backup Systems" and examines the business considerations of implementing de-duplication, including the key components of a data de-duplication ROI analysis and a list of questions every organizations should ask potential vendors.
