I think its pretty clear as to why EMC acquired Data Domain. If you review a number of my posts that speak to the value of data deduplication, EMC’s vision for deduplicaiton and most of Mr. Tucci’s thoughts on data deduplicaiton, its a perfect fit really.

Uh, silly question then why did EMC buy Data Domain? This is repudiation of the Avamar technology to some extent. I would have argued that was also true for NetApp WRT to ASIS. Note that I talk about the AWFL overhead in this post: http://blogs.hds.com/michael/2009/07/capacity-optimization-for-hitachi-file-and-content-services.html.
