Dedupe-friendly compression level is recommended for some deduplicating storage appliances and when external WAN accelerators are used.Disabled compression can reduce performance due to the increased amount of data to be transferred. None compression level is recommended if you plan to store backup files and VM replica files on storage devices that support hardware compression and deduplication.Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to select one of the following compression levels:
Data compression and deduplication let you decrease traffic going over the network and disk space required for storing backup files and VM replica files.ĭata compression decreases the size of created files but affects duration of the backup or replication procedure. Veeam Backup & Replication provides mechanisms of data compression and deduplication.
