PowerStore systems provide zero-detect, compression, and deduplication data-reduction capabilities. Data reduction is integrated into the PowerStore architecture and is always active.
All storage resources in PowerStore systems are thin-provisioned and space-efficient, including snapshots and thin clones. Creating a snapshot or thin clone requires only a quick duplication of pointers, after which the resources behave as independent storage resources and do not affect the performance of the source.
