Microsoft Introduces Data Protection Manager (DPM) 2010
Microsoft has released System Center Data Protection Manager 2010, a powerful backup-and-restore solution designed by Microsoft specifically for protecting Windows servers and clients. Data Protection Manager 2010 offers on-going,transparent backup of both physical and virtual systems to local or remote disks as well as off-line copying to tape, and permits rapid, easy recovery of entire computers or single files. DPM's disk support provides the speed and reliability you need to preserve your vital business information without disrupting network operations, while DPM's mag tape compatibility keeps long-term archiving expenses low and helps ensure compliance with contractual or legal data retention mandates.
Most small companies continue to depend on obsolete, tape-centric backup and recovery technology. In the event of a major IT failure, this can result in significant revenue loss because of extended network unavailability and, in the worst case, unrecoverable records. Tape-only protection procedures are unreliable because the media is sensitive to mechanical wear and requires a carefully maintained warehousing environment. Microsoft reported a 17% failure rate when utilizing mag tape to archive their in-house production servers. Mag tape is also inherently slow. Because of this, backups require periodic server downtime, restoration points are commonly separated by days rather than minutes, and the recovery procedure is long and hard to manage.
DPM gets around these shortcomings by supporting high-performance, dependable hard disks for online backup and relegating tape to long-term storage. The high performance of disks allows ongoing non-disruptive backup, reduces recovery point spacing to as little as 15 minutes, and dramatically lowers restoration time. For enhanced disk system reliability, DPM supports disk clustering and non-stop arrays. New features of DPM 2010 include support for Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V R2 virtual machines and Clustered Shared Volumes, the ability to restore single files, DAG support for Exchange Server 2010, enhanced operation with SharePoint Server, and full data protection during a Live Migration procedure.
