The Road Ahead

Maintaining its leadership in innovation for disk based backup, Druva recently revealed plans to launch a new storage engine called "Blackbird". The new storage engine promises a new application aware sourced based data deduplication approach which eliminates data duplicates by understanding the composition, format and structure of data at the source.
