Data Reduction

Unmatched Scalability
Automatic PC data protection, as managed by Connected software, actually reduces the total volume of protected data.

The solution shrinks the size and number of stored files, enabling automatic backup and user-friendly data retrieval whenever users are online, even out of the office, even over dial-up connections.

Connected’s patented, best-of-breed data reduction technologies, along with data compression, make this possible.

• Delta Block®

This patented technology allows only changed sets — at the block level — to be saved. So that, when a document changes, only the changes are backed up. This minimizes network traffic, reduces backup time, enables backup even over dial-up connections and dramatically reduces the overall size of stored files.
• SendOnce®

Another patented technology, SendOnce backs up common files to a SendOnce pool, preventing extra copies of shared files from being stored in multiple user archives. As a result, Connected users don’t waste the time and bandwidth of storing the same files over and over again.

Taken together, these technologies allow complete backups in only minutes per day.
