Asempra BCS - Continuous Availability
The reality today is that too many data protection platforms targeted at the small and medium enterprise (SME) market fail to deliver basic capabilities with the ease of use, speed, and flexibility necessary to provide the holistic, effective data protection demanded. What the SME requires is a new approach to data protection that is easy to use and ensures the business that both the application and data remain available. We’ve identified this approach to data protection as Continuous Availability.

Quest NetVault FastRecover and Protecting Use: Next generation best practices for data protection
Data recovery has never been an easy task, and organizations are universally immersed in a struggle to prioritize recovery tasks for certain applications (in a disaster) and figure out how to minimize the time it takes to recover data. The compromises are never attractive, and call for businesses to augment their protection with all manner of other complex technologies - replication, clustering, failover, DR. These other technologies duplicate the protection of backup, but focus on preserving the use of systems. We've long expected data protection vendors to breakthrough with solutions to challenge this approach. Let's take a look at how one vendor - Quest Software - is doing this with their NetVault FastRecover technology.
Symantec Backup Exec: Comprehensive Data Protection for Growing Businesses
Symantec recently juiced up its Backup Exec (BUE) product line adding appliance and cloud based offerings to the mix. This announcement reinforces Symantec’s commitment to data protection for small and medium sized businesses, the charter being led by the newly formed Information Management Group (IMG). What is significant about this announcement is that Symantec is seeking to morph Backup Exec from a single product into more of a data protection platform. Symantec envisions Backup Exec to be the data protection platform of choice for SMBs and small to medium enterprises. With features like VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V integration, deduplication for virtual infrastructure, support for cloud as a tier and end point protection, Symantec is squarely setting its sights at beating competitors like CommVault (Simpana Galaxy), Microsoft (Data Protection Manager), Acronis (TrueImage), CA (ARCserve) and others to name a few.
This Taneja Group Opinion covers Symantec’s Backup Exec – providing a complete data protection solution for SMB/SME and consolidating its already dominant market share.

Taneja Group Research: Deduplication and the Innovation Race -- It Isn't Over
I think it is safe to say that data deduplication technology on the backup side has now gone mainstream. At the enterprise level we estimate that almost all companies have installed some form of data deduplication technology, even if the percentage of data under the jurisdiction of dedupe is closer to 40 percent. In other words, each enterprise has dedupe equipment, but not all backup data is yet being deduped. The reasons vary with each enterprise (importance of application, geographic isolation, limited funding, and so on). When one looks under the covers one finds that some of this deduplication is happening at the source but a large majority at a target, and more specifically, a target appliance.

IBM ProtecTIER: From Backup to Recovery
When it comes to backup and recovery, backup performance numbers rule the roost.But a reliance on backup numbers alone is dangerous. Recovery may not happen as frequently as daily backup but recovery is the entire reason for backup. Because when a recovery operation looms -- especially if the recovery is large and the potential loss is huge -- fast recovery performance becomes more urgent than backup ever was.
