IT management software and solutions company CA announced releases of
ARCserve Backup, ARCserve Replication, ARCserve High Availability (formerly
XOsoft Replication and High Availability), and a disk-to-disk backup and
restore product, ARCserve D2D. ARCserve r15, also released today, builds on the
ARCserve r12.5, which included virtualization enhancements and built-in data
deduplication, with new features like infrastructure visualization and granular
restore of Microsoft Active Directory.
The r15 products are focused on delivering total protection, recovery and
availability of critical business information by extending the IT
administrator's ability to protect systems, applications and data regardless of
changes in their environment such as remote office/branch office expansion;
policy changes driven by regulatory compliance; M&A activity and technology
transformation such as deployment; and upgrades to new applications like
Microsoft SharePoint or server virtualization and data migration.
"Our customers need to leverage new technologies and solutions to make IT
more effective in meeting today's demanding business requirements," said
Adam Famularo, senior vice president and general manager of CA's recovery
management and data modeling business unit. "With the CA ARCserve family
of products, we continue to deliver enhanced data protection and availability
products to help them achieve these goals."
ARCserve Backup helps to minimize the risk of data loss and ensure the
integrity and availability of data and combines disk and tape backup features
including data deduplication, granular restore and infrastructure
visualization. ARCserve D2D provides protection and recovery for Windows
disk-based servers, supporting multiple Windows platforms and Microsoft applications.
It can be used stand-alone, or work with other CA ARCserve products to manage
environments that include tape or require that data be replicated to remote
offices.
ARCserve Replication, formerly known as XOsoft Replication, helps IT ensure
continuous data protection and data migration at the data center and remote
offices, as well as helping integrate application-aware replication and
continuous data protection (CDP) to ensure the protection and recoverability of
applications, files, e-mails and databases across Windows, Linux and Unix in
both physical and virtual environments.
RCserve High Availability, formerly known as XOsoft High Availability, helps
maximize system, application and data uptime and availability to meet service-level
agreements (SLAs) and disaster recovery strategies. It protects any Windows,
Linux and Unix file servers, applications or databases, including Microsoft
Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint, IIS and Dynamics CRM,
as well as Oracle and BlackBerry Servers on physical and virtual servers. It
includes all ARCserve Replication r15 features, and adds server and
application-level monitoring, automated and push-button failover, and
push-button failback.
"Today, IT managers face a multitude of challenges and business requirements
forcing them to adapt their data protection requirements to adequately
safeguard their business-critical data," said Robert Amatruda, research
director for data protection and recovery at research firm IDC.
"CA's ARCserve r15 release provides IT managers an integrated set of tools
allowing them to support multiple protection and availability use cases, from
legacy to the latest physical and virtualized servers and operating systems."
