Acronis updates enterprise storage management solution
Acronis, Inc. released an update to its family of
Windows-based enterprise-class Acronis True Image products. The family includes
Acronis True Image Enterprise Server 8.0 for Windows, and
Acronis True Image Corporate Workstation 8.0 for Windows.
Among the updates to the Enterprise Server offering are the ability
to start and stop database applications in order to create a
point-in-time snapshot of the database, restore systems remotely
from the management console, and save backup images to remote tape drives.
Acronis True Image Corporate Workstation 8.0 for Windows adds restoration
of non-system partitions remotely from the management console, as well as
the same remote tape drive support being added to the server products.
"Expanding our capabilities for enterprise and standalone server customers
is a priority at Acronis," said CEO Max Tsypliaev. "RAID data recovery and
protection are critical in a corporate environment, as is disaster recovery
and back-up. Our goal is to provide corporate users with a one-stop shop
for their backup and disaster recovery needs.
"Acronis understands that corporate users have a choice when it comes to
backup options. However, we also recognize that if a backup product is too
complex to use or doesn't provide a fail-safe backup, it won't be used, and
that is a bad business decision. Acronis products make the IT manager's job
easier by providing advanced, enterprise-class backup capabilities that are
actually useful and provide a fast return on investment. They are not
complex, partial solutions that are difficult to use and therefore
expensive clutter on the server."
"Business continuity is critical in an enterprise environment," added
Stephen Lawton, marketing director for Acronis. Maintaining database
integrity while expanding the backup options demonstrates Acronis'
commitment to corporate IT users.
"It is not enough to provide backup and disk imaging capabilities," he
added. "IT managers demand that data integrity be paramount for any backup
solution. Why bother to back up your data if it's not accessible when you
need it? Addressing IT managers' request for greater data reliability
capabilities underscores our commitment to providing world-class
capabilities. Additionally, the images created by Acronis True Image can be
used as part of a public company's government-mandated compliance with the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act."
