Microsoft Ships System Center Data Protection Manager 2010
Microsoft has published Data Protection Manager 2010, a powerful backup-and-restore solution built by Microsoft specifically for protecting Windows file and application servers and clients. Data Protection Manager 2010 allows continual,non-disruptive backup of physical and virtual systems to local or remote hard disks plus off-line recording to tape, and enables fast, simple-to-manage restoration of whole computers or single files. Data Protection Manager's disk backup delivers the performance and reliability required to preserve your vital business data without interrupting network operations, while DPM's tape compatibility makes long-term archiving costs affordable and helps ensure adherence to industry or legal data retention requirements.
Many small companies continue to rely on outdated, tape-centric backup and recovery solutions. In the event of a major IT failure, this can lead to significant revenue loss due to prolonged network unavailability and, possibly, lost information. Tape-based backup solutions are vulnerable because tape media is subject to mechanical wear and requires a carefully controlled physical environment. Microsoft recorded a 17% failure incidence when utilizing tape to back up their in-house operational servers. Tape is also slow. Because of this, backup processes require scheduled server downtime, recovery points are often separated by days rather than minutes, and the restore process is time consuming and tedious.
DPM solves these shortcomings by using fast, dependable disk systems for online backup while relegating tape media to long-term archiving. The speed of hard disks allows continual non-disruptive backup, shrinks restoration point intervals to as low as 15 minutes, and dramatically lowers restoration time. For enhanced disk system dependability, DPM supports high availability disk clusters and non-stop arrays. Innovations with Data Protection Manager 2010 include operation with Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V R2 virtual machines and CSV, the option to restore single files, Database Availability Group support for Exchange 2010, enhanced operation with SharePoint, and full data protection during a Live Migration procedure.
