1. Pro Data Backup and Recovery
2011 by Steven Nelson
Effective backup and recovery strategies form the bedrock of organizational well-being, particularly for medium- to very-large-scale systems administrators tasked with safeguarding substantial volumes of critical data. "Pro Data Backup and Recovery" goes beyond conventional discussions of popular backup applications like Symantec NetBackup/BackupExec, EMC NetWorker, and CommVault, centering on the implementation of 21st-century architectures that redefine backup software as a versatile "commodity." This book delves into the underlying architecture, establishing a framework that caters to the evolving data protection needs of organizations. Addressing contemporary developments in data protection and the transformative impact of single-instance storage on backup infrastructures, it explores the dynamics of backup and data replication, the nuanced strategies of B2D and D2D, and the realm of "tapeless" backup environments. Crucially, the text also examines continuous data protection and remote replication strategies, essential considerations in today's landscape. Whether navigating NetBackup, CommVault, or any other backup software, "Pro Data Backup and Recovery" equips readers with the knowledge to ensure the safety and accessibility of their data.
