Abstract

This IDC Buyer Case Study — based on a March 2009 interview with Chanh Chi, IT architect at VMware, and Michael Pate, manager of Technical Operations at VMware — examines the company's use of client-side deduplication. In 2007, VMware evaluated and deployed the Avamar Axion client-side deduplication and replication offerings as a means of protecting and recovering over 300 physical and virtual systems across its infrastructure.

This document examines VMware's implementation of the Avamar technology, including a discussion of its organizational challenges and evaluation requirements. VMware's results are highlighted and future implementation plans are summarized. End users can use this information to assess whether client-side deduplication technology is applicable within their environment and what benefits can be expected using the Avamar solution set.
