Backup and disaster recovery (DR) strategies protect data from corruption and failures - and ensure that if these types of events occur, companies aren't forced out of business. Data protection becomes even more important in a virtualized server environment, because each physical server serves as a foundation for multiple virtual servers. If a physical machine fails, multiple applications and processes are impacted.
However, standard agent-based backup processes aren't well suited to virtual server environments. VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) improves virtual server backup, but there are a number of limitations. FalconStor Software has a solution that works with VCB while overcoming these limitations. Using this solution, you can quickly and efficiently back up virtual machines and retain transactional consistency, without management complexity.
