This paper describes how to meet challenges posed by shrinking backup and recovery windows using the Snapshot and SnapRestore features of NetApp storage systems. Regardless of the size of the database or the level of activity on the storage system, a Snapshot copy takes only a few seconds to create. The SnapRestore feature dramatically improves the system availability by providing the ability to recover in minutes, instead of hours or days.
