Implementing Data Deduplication
Implementing Data Duplication
Data Deduplication
Data deduplication was introduced with windows server 2012
Data deduplication breaks data into small chunks
Data deduplication is ideal for shared folders
Data deduplication provides multiple tools and settings to help with performance
Candidates for data deduplication
Scenarios
Ideal candidates for data deduplication:
Folder redirection servers and user home folders
Virtualization depots or provisioning libraries
Software deployment shares
SQL Server and Exchange Server backup volumes
Scale-out File Servers (SoFS) CSVs
Virtualized disk backups
Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) virtual hard disks
