Why protect Microsoft Exchange?
For many companies, an hour of Exchange downtime can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost productivity.
To say that email is a critical application is an obvious understatement. Few applications are more integral to an organization's day-to-day operation. How can you justify a disaster recovery and high availability solution for Microsoft Exchange that does not provide immediate and up-to-the-second Exchange recovery? You can't. Exchange recovery as part of a thorough disaster recovery plan is crucial to business continuity.
Double-Take Software provides organizations with Exchange recovery solutions for disaster recovery, high availability, and centralized backup by protecting all changes to Exchange data at the byte level rather than the full file or block level. You get up-to-the-second Exchange data protection with maximum performance and minimal use of your network and system resources - for immediate Exchange recovery should an outage occur.
Exchange recovery requires a lot more than management of on-site and off-site tape backups. While traditional tape backup is an excellent tool for long-term archiving, true Exchange recovery for the sake of business continuity requires real-time data protection which enables disaster recovery and high availability. Having a solution that is cost-effective, hardware independent and scalable is something every IT manager should seriously consider.
