What EMC Data Domain BOOST & distributed segment processing can do to reduce the bandwidth usage. The picture shows the load on a 10G Ethernet link to a Data Domain before and after the enablement of Distributed Segment Processing. Distributed segment processing was enabled 29-05-2013 during the day. The difference was so big that the network department warned us that backup had stopped working 🙂
The distributed segment processing is turned on by default from DD OS 4.8 (current DD vesion is 5.5*)
The graph show Mbits/sec but it is in GB/sec.
