Exercise Caution Before Making Any Assumptions about Cloud Data Protection Products

By | Cloud, Cloud Storage, Continuous Data Protection, Data Protection, Data Reduction, Deduplication, Encryption, Replication | No Comments

There are two assumptions that IT professionals need to exercise caution before making when evaluating cloud data protection products. One is to assume all products share some feature or features in common. The other is to assume that one product possesses some feature or characteristic that no other product on the market offers. As DCIG reviews its recent research into the cloud data protection products, one cannot make either one of these assumptions, even on features such as deduplication, encryption, and replication that one might expect to be universally adopted by these products in comparable ways.
