Nearly 50 Percent Savings With DAOS

Chris Whisonant |   | Tags:  attachments daos storage domino | Comments (2)  |  Visits (1,114)
Several people have been blogging about using the (now-corrected) DAOS estimator tool. Feel free to add your savings calculations as a comment here or post them on your own blog!

Bruce Currier should be saving 49%!!
I had someone ping me with his results of saving 39%!
The third comment at Ed Brill's post on the Estimator tool reflects a 40% savings!
Almar Diehl blogged his results and will be seeing around 17% savings.

As demonstrated above, your mileage may vary with the savings...

A commenter at Bruce's blog (linked above) also noted that if you currently use a service to backup your mail databases offsite, then you should also be able to save a lot of money since you will be backing up much smaller NSF's.

And speaking of backups, make sure that you review the Backup and Restore considerations for DAOS!

Chris, you know our own savings far exceeded the estimator. We had an almost 80% reduction internally.

Oh duh! Thanks for pointing that out Nathan. Scott did post some preliminary numbers on our actual DAOS implementation. This was before the estimator was available. I'm anxious to see the final numbers on that. I think we're in the 30-40% range since he's posted originally, but it's only a subset of around 15 mail databases...

I need to check on that tomorrow!
