DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PURE DISC,ADVANCED DISK AND DATA DOMAIN?

[teiva-boy · Accepted solution]

PureDisk - Symantec's own Deduplication product.  Based on SUSE linux, you install it on your own hardware and storage, or buy Symantec's appliances.  (There are some 3rd parties that build their own appliances with better HW and performance than Symantec's own)

Advanced Disk - Now included with Enterprise Disk.  It's an option for NetBackup Enterprise Server.  Disk load balancing and intelligent capacity monitoring.  

DataDomain - Now owned by EMC, a purpose built deduplication appliance.  EMC has more scalable boxes, and faster models when compared to PureDisk/PDDO/NBU.  However, it is a different company, thus a different neck to choke when you need assistance.  There are however some great integration points for NBU and DD, via a feature called OST.

Seeing how English is not your first language, perhaps you want to reach out to your local Symantec reseller in your country for assistance.  They can typically get you in touch with a local Symantec sales person to go over the differences for you.
