Leveraging Virtualization for Backup and Recovery

Tags:
disaster recovery

Overview Today, virtualization goes far beyond traditional server consolidation. Being able to rapidly transition to and from physical and virtual environments (P2V/V2P) now enables a broad range of backup and recovery options, from rapid system disaster recovery to seamless hardware migration to pre-flight testing and system repurposing. The attendee of this webcast will learn how new virtualization capabilities from Symantec can provide faster, and more flexible backup and recovery options using virtualization solutions such as VMware and Microsoft Virtual Server. This webcast will also include a live demonstration.
