FalconStor Announces Offerings For VMware Environments, Bridging Physical And Virtual Infrastructures: Page 3 of 5

Additional FalconStor solutions for continuous availability include:

    * Newly Introduced FalconStor File-interface Deduplication System Virtual Appliance (FDS VA) - Optimizes VMware backup infrastructure by eliminating redundancies in VMDK files and significantly reducing the storage capacity required to support VMware backup applications. This storage capacity optimization solution allows for longer retention time of backup online while reducing infrastructure costs thus improving the recoverability of VMware environments.
    * FalconStor HyperTrac VMware Edition - Provides impact-free backup of VMware environments through its tight integration with VMware Consolidated Backup and the VMware vStorage APIs for Data Protection. It removes any performance impact on production environments by offloading the backup process of VMware virtual disk files (VMDKs) to a standby environment allowing virtual machine backup to proceed unimpeded and to scale to the largest VMware environments.
