Business Continuity Solutions: Microsoft SQL Server With Dell EqualLogic PS Series Arrays

Tags:
disaster recovery

Overview Different types of Microsoft SQL Server data protection are necessary to allow businesses to meet the complex application service level agreements outlined in a comprehensive business continuity plan. Many types of failure scenarios can impact SQL Server database or database application availability. Strategies and techniques for protecting against hardware component failures, data corruption, human errors, and natural disasters need to be developed. The Dell EqualLogic PS Series arrays offer the availability features necessary to integrate into a holistic plan that is designed to protect SQL Server data. These arrays feature redundant components, and provide the ability to create snapshots, clones, and replicas of database and log volumes. These features allow the volumes to offer many business continuity advantages.
