Addressing the Top Data Protection Challenges in Mixed Physical and Virtual Server Environments: Symantec Backup and Recovery Solutions for Physical and Virtual Servers

Overview IT organizations are well-versed in protecting their physical infrastructure and data from interruptions. Most, if not all, organizations employ some level of data protection to minimize downtime and data loss in the event of a disruption. Just as introducing multiple operating systems created complexity and challenges, as these organizations incorporate virtual servers in their environment, new challenges are developing for protecting the mix as a whole.

As deployments of server virtualization proliferate and new server virtualization technology becomes available, the combination of new and incumbent vendors adds yet another dimension to the heterogeneity of the environment. Workloads running on different operating systems and on physical and virtual servers add a new level of complexity for operational and disaster recovery.

Read this ESG paper to see how Symantec is responding to mixed environment data protection requirements with enhanced solutions for system and data protection, including recent updates to Backup Exec and Backup Exec System Recovery that provide comprehensive data and system protection of physical and virtual environments for multiple vendors' platforms and hypervisors. These solutions provide a single-source solution for protection of business-critical and business-supporting workloads.
