While Dedupe is available from many vendors, NetApp is the only one offering Dedupe for production environments. Dedupe impacts many of the requirements in one's infrastructure from production storage, to backups (when backing up to disk), & DR bandwidth replication. Deduep is available on all arrays from NetApp. Now if you think Dedupe is cool check out out intelligent caching (or dedupe aware array cache).
