PRODUCT DEMO - Because backup operations create multiple copies of the same data, FalconStor VTL provides data deduplication. As backup jobs are added to the data repository, the new data is compared to existing data and any blocks already in the repository are deleted to reduce disk space consumption. View this demo and learn more about FalconStor deduplication.
