Vision Solutions today announced RecoverNow, what the company described as a highly-affordable data recovery and continuous data protection solution for companies seeking significant reduction to recovery point objectives (RPO) over a tape-only based strategy.
"A great advantage of using RecoverNow is the ability to know we can go back to specific points-in-time on our critical systems," says customer Jeff Winters, supervisor of systems analysis for Boone County, MO. "In addition, the automation this product provides reduces my system administration burden tremendously and its simple recovery processes allow much faster responses to everyday requests that are critical for our users."
Vision Solutions' RecoverNow benefits include:
- Faster, more reliable and more complete recovery than from backup tapes alone.
- Quickly and easily recover just one or many files, objects, or libraries.
- Powerful continuous data protection (CDP) "rewind" capabilities to recover damaged or deleted data at any point in time.
"RecoverNow provides much faster, flexible recovery options for the small to mid-market IBM System i customer," says Alan Arnold, chief technology officer and executive vice president of Vision Solutions. "With RecoverNow, you can perform common or emergency recovery operations more effectively than with tape and provide unique flexibility to recover data at virtually any point in time."
Vision Solutions' RecoverNow fits into numerous existing infrastructures because it can use the storage available on virtually any platform as a target including Windows, Linux, IBM i, AIX or other UNIX versions. It can also support SAN or NAS environments as a target. This means SMB customers can reap countless benefits from RecoverNow's fast recovery and continuous data protection (CDP) without investing in a second IBM i server.
"With RecoverNow's economical price points, customers who rely solely on tape-based recovery strategies will find remarkable return on their investments," adds Edward Vesely, Vision Solutions' senior vice president of Marketing,. "RecoverNow allows for dramatic reduction and even elimination of the expensive data loss normally experienced when recovering information from tape backups and it is a natural disaster recovery complement to any high availability environment."
RecoverNow works in conjunction with the IBM i Save While Active process to eliminate downtime when doing backups on the production system. For existing Vision HA customers, RecoverNow can be implemented in the environment to provide CDP capabilities on top of the data protection delivered with the HA software.
