Zombies not only go after the biggest brains, but the most data as well, so deduplication is critical.<\/li>\n<li>On the run. Remember, you don\u2019t have to run faster than the zombies, you just have to run faster than the other IT people. Use all-in-one backup, archiving, and disaster (zombie) recovery appliances to stay ahead of your peers.<\/li>\n<li>Living in an undead world. Even if zombie overlords rule the planet, cash will still be king. Make every dollar count by ensuring that your backup vendor isn\u2019t nickel and diming you to death.
