Overview:
The FalconStor® File-interface Deduplication System (FDS) is a block-level data deduplication tool that provides a space-efficient repository for data from backup systems. With FalconStor FDS, you can reduce your backup management costs by dramatically reducing your disk storage needs, reducing your dependency on tape, and reducing off site tape storage costs by enabling you to achieve longer retention periods on disk and facilitating replication of your backups to meet off-site requirements.

This document describes the basic concepts and integration guidelines for FalconStor FDS in a Veritas NetBackup™ environment. The document provides an architectural overview of FalconStor FDS when used with Veritas NetBackup and explains the benefits of a combined solution. It is intended to provide best practices for configuring all components. The information in this document is presented in the form of guidelines.
