Data Reduction: Deduplication and Compression

Agentless VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V backups combined with Catalogic vStor Server or the NetApp storage systems provides powerful data reduction capabilities.

Catalogic vStor server provides data reduction through deduplication and compression (target-side data reduction). The deduplication and data compression capabilities for Catalogic vStor Server and the NetApp storage systems can be applied to stored backup data. For more information on the effect of data compression, see Best Practices for Agentless VMware Backup.
