Today's enterprises face a growing data protection challenge: how to optimize the backup and recovery of a volume of business-critical data that grows larger each and, in many cases, doubles each year. Most enterprises are finding that their IT footprint and storage resources continue to grow at a rate of 40 to 50 percent per year, which adds considerable complexity to their existing data protection strategies. This challenge becomes yet more difficult as companies migrate from stand-alone Windows server backups to enterprise site-wide backups that are performed across the local area network and storage area network environments.
With the data protection landscape becoming more distributed and IT resources increasingly constrained, businesses need a centralized data protection strategy that can efficiently manage multiple backup and recovery jobs across the enterprise. In addition, the data protection strategy must be able to support an off-host backup strategy to efficiently minimize the impact on mission-critical applications and network user interruption, and take advantage of the speed of disk-based data protection.
Symantec Backup Exec 12 addresses these critical enterprise challenges with the following cutting-edge features: Central Admin Server Option, SAN Shared Storage Option, and dynamic disk-based data protection which is the subject of this paper.
