Silver Peak Systems CEO Rick Tinsley said that more and more organizations are taking advantage of the cheap, abundant bandwidth of Multiprotocol Layer Switching (MPLS) and Internet-based wide-area networks (WANs). However, they aren't paying enough attention to the issue of IP packet loss, which is common to newer types of WANs. Tinsley said that MPLS is gaining popularity over the older and more expensive system of using private telco lines for multisite backup and data replication. He also said that distance replication is replacing the practice of shipping tapes for remote data protection. But when he sat down with SearchStorage.com to discuss the market for WAN acceleration, Tinsley warned about packet loss and security issues that go with the new methods of WAN connectivity.

Here is a great article by Jim Metzler and Steve Taylor in Network World where they compare different ways of doing WAN deduplication. As Silver Peak takes an "instruction based" approach to dedupe, we are understandably biased towards that method. But, these guys do a good job highlighting the differences between the two, so it is worth a read.
