Acronis demonstrates Enterprise products at MySQL user conference

April 18, 2005, South San Francisco, CA — Acronis, Inc., the technological leader in storage management software, announced that it will demonstrate its newly updated Acronis True Image Enterprise Server 8.0 and Acronis True Image Server 8.0 for Linux at the upcoming MySQL User Conference April 18–21 in Santa Clara, CA. This will mark the first public demonstration of the new features announced earlier this month.

Among the updates to Acronis True Image 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 Server for Linux continues to be the only commercial-grade disk imaging server software for this popular operating system.

"Linux users deserve world-class disk imaging and backup technology, and only Acronis delivers that today," said Max Tsypliaev, CEO of Acronis. "Recently Acronis become the first MySQL Network certified solution for bare-metal restore for database backup. In addition, MySQL AB, developer of the world's most popular open source database, has standardized on Acronis True Image for its own internal IT disaster recovery and bare-metal restore systems. In other words, MySQL is putting its money where its mission-critical data is and using the software it recommends to its customers."

"The MySQL User Conference is an outstanding showplace for the latest updates in disk imaging technology," added Stephen Lawton, Acronis' director of marketing. "This conference's attendees tend to be more technical, and therefore more aware, of the extreme technological and financial damage a company can face if it is without an adequate backup of its servers. Acronis is pleased to share its innovations in Linux disk imaging with its MySQL partners and users."
