3. Customer Backup Pains Better nightly backups needed
Tape is inefficient
Lack of application support
WAN not feasible for centralized backups
Disk-based backup consumes large amounts of space
Remote and branch-office data protection is expensive and cumbersome
Customers want one vendor to manage everything

DPM 2007 – Express Full’s

9. DPM Finds Files that Make Up Data
+ \SQL_data
+ \Customer.MDF
E:\
+ \SQL_logs
+ \Customer.LDF

10. DPM Identifies Blocks that Compose Files
DPM filter creates a volume map, to monitor which disk blocks contain portions of the files to be protected
D:\
+ \SQL_data
+ \Customer.MDF
E:\
+ \SQL_logs
+ \Customer.LDF

53. Top Reasons To Plan for DPM 2007
No more failed recoveries
Near zero data loss for Exchange, SQL, and SharePoint
Seamless Disk-to-Disk-to-Tape for backups
Recoveries within minutes instead of hours
Unified policy allows protection of multiple data types to any media – in one schedule and with common tuning options
Eliminate the backup window of your production servers
Shrink potential data loss down to 15 minutes
Application recovery direct from backup UI – no pre-staging
Enable end-users to perform their own recoveries
Remove tapes from branch offices and centralize backups at the datacenter
