FAQ's
How about when doing target data deduplication on the virtual tape library (VTL) or backup appliance? Is there a similar performance impact?
has a little bit different performance impact. The knock on target-based data deduplication is that you aren't really reducing the amount of data you are sending over the network. So you are still sending the full amount of data over the network every time you do a backup. You are reducing the amount of data... More...
What is the difference between server-free and LAN-free backup?
is simply connecting the server that needs to be backed up to a SAN, so the data is transferred over Fibre Channel to a tape drive, VTL or disk.

In server-free backup, the data does not flow through the server being backed up. The server being backed up is still involved, because it has to do things like quiesce the... More...

Is there a similar performance impact, or any impact at all, when restoring deduplicated data?
It really depends on how the index is constructed and how the data is laid out on the back-end disk. As long as the index can remain in memory, it can continue to process and find data as it's reconstructed.

The problem that begins to emerge is two-fold. First off, if you have backups going on at the same... More...
