WHITE PAPER - As data center resource consolidation gains traction, many organizations are missing the big picture. For reducing primary storage footprints, they're looking at virtualization in isolation; for reducing secondary backup storage, they're focusing on deduplication in isolation. To consolidate optimally, they must consider the full landscape.
