Another thing to remember when comparing it to a windows server is that windows servers don’t have dedupe, CDP, backup target, replication, scale out, and cloud management.
What Windows Server are you using? Windows has scale out, replication, dedupe, compression, etc.
Cloud management is nice, but just use LogMeIn and you have that with Windows. Easy peasy.
It looks like Server 2012 introduced dedup, I guess you learn something new every day. Thanks
yes Server 2012 has file dedupe, but I don't believe it a dedupe target for Backup Exec, Veeam, others. Moreover, without CDP (immutable) it's not a persistent protection scheme for primary data.
