Episode 87 — Storage System Features — Compression, Deduplication, Replication
This episode examines advanced features that improve storage efficiency and data protection. Compression reduces the size of stored data to save space and potentially improve performance. Deduplication identifies and removes duplicate data blocks, reducing storage consumption and backup times. Replication creates copies of data across devices or locations for redundancy, disaster recovery, and improved access speeds. We explain each feature’s mechanisms and appropriate use cases.
We also address potential performance impacts, licensing considerations, and integration with cloud-native storage services. On the Cloud+ exam, you’ll need to know which feature to apply based on operational priorities like cost savings, resilience, or compliance. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com, where you’ll find more cyber prepcasts, books, and information to strengthen your certification path.
