Microsoft Releases Data Protection Manager 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 workstations. System Center Data Protection Manager 2010 allows on-going,non-disruptive backup of both physical and virtual systems to onsite or off-site disks plus off-line copying to tape, and enables rapid, easy-to-manage recovery of entire servers or individual files. DPM's disk support provides the performance and reliability you need to protect your vital business data without disrupting network availability, while DPM's mag tape compatibility makes long-term archiving expenses affordable and helps ensure adherence to contractual or legal data retention requirements.
Most small businesses continue to rely on outdated, tape-based backup and restore technology. In case of a serious IT breakdown, this can lead to substantial income loss because of prolonged network downtime and, possibly, lost data. Tape-based protection solutions are unreliable because the media is sensitive to wear and tear and requires a carefully maintained physical environment. Microsoft recorded a whopping 17% failure rate when using tape to back up their own production servers. Mag tape is also low performance. Because of this, backups call for scheduled downtime, recovery snap shots are often separated by days rather than minutes, and the restoration process is long and tedious.
DPM resolves these problems by supporting fast, reliable disks for short-term backup while relegating tape to long-term archiving. The high performance of disks permits ongoing non-disruptive backup, reduces restoration point intervals to as little as 15 minutes, and substantially lowers restoration time. For enhanced disk system dependability, DPM 2010 supports disk clustering and non-stop arrays. Innovations with DPM 2010 include support for Windows 2008 Hyper-V R2 virtualization and CSV, the option to recover single files, database availability group (DAG) support for Exchange 2010, improved operation with SharePoint Server, and protection during a Live Migration procedure.
