The FD could run on any server you had available - a vSphere server, a backup server, whatever, so long as it had access to the ESX servers and/or the LUNs your VMs are on if they're on a SAN. VADP can apparently back up either direct from the SAN or through the ESX(i) host. But for those transitioning from VCB, they would have a proxy host running anyway, so if there was a simple program to replace vcbMounter and similarly be called by a RunBeforeJob, it would be an easy transition. But I'm not aware that such a thing currently exists.
