Using Avamar over ADSL?
Hi all,
first time poster, so be gentle with me!
We have an Avamar grid in place, and we have sites from all over Europe desperate to sign up.
I have one site that has a 2mb adsl network connection and around 250GB of data to backup.
We are doing source de-dup, and send an encrypted drive to the site then ship it back to our grid before snapping up locally, and then kicking off backups.
Assuming a standard amount of data change, would this ADSL be sufficient to cope with the Avamar backups?
Appreciate the replies.

Using a bandwidth conversion tool (http://www.convertworld.com/en/bandwidth/Terabit+per+second.html) we can see that on a 2Mbit/s line we can transfer around 900MB per hour.
Multiply that by your backup window, take off 20-30% to be conservative and you'll have a rough guide to how much daily data change can be transferred before you max out the ADSL link.
Hope that helps..
