Data Reduction

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

The solution shrinks the overall volume of stored files, enabling information from as many as 20,000 PCs to be stored on a single mirrored server. 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 save themselves the time and expense of storing the same files over and over again.

Taken together, these technologies reduce data storage requirements for PC backup and recovery by up to 85 percent in comparison to traditional solutions.
