| Beta Systems Introduces Harbor Enterprise NSM 7.1 Beta Systems Software AG has announced the availability of Harbor Enterprise NSM (Network Storage Manager) 7.1, a data protection and disaster recovery suite that provides fast, reliable backup and recovery of database, mail and file systems, with reduced mainframe MIPS usage and operation elapsed times. For use in multi-platform environments, Harbor Enterprise NSM provides a single backup solution for an entire enterprise ensuring data distributed throughout an organization is protected and managed with a central policy server and single point of administration. Key features of Harbor Enterprise NSM 7.1 include: - Encryption for Offsite Data Protection Harbor Enterprise NSM supports the proprietary encryption of data written to tape, lessening the threat of sensitive information being compromised in the event backup tapes stored offsite are lost or stolen. - Scalability and Speed Harbor Enterprise NSM backs up thousands of file servers and terabytes of storage using the speed and reliability of the z/OS mainframe - allowing businesses to perform larger and more frequent backups of their Open Systems data using existing hardware. Achieving transfer speeds up to 200 GB/hour, and able to move data in parallel across different communications paths, Harbor Enterprise NSM reduces mainframe processing costs and traditional bottlenecks. - Central Administration & Global Policy for Complex Environments A central Administration Console and policy database streamlines the process of managing multiple backup servers throughout an enterprise. Backup jobs at remote sites can be automatically scheduled, lessening the dependence on staff and the chance of human error. - Remote Helpdesk Using the Remote Helpdesk, an administrator or help desk staff can view backed up files and select those for end-user restore, usually without the need to log into the remote system or the mainframe. Harbor Enterprise NSM, architected to be an integral part of your business continuity strategy, offers a backup and recovery solution that addresses the increasing need for storage capacity on every platform where growing quantities of backup data frequently exceed the capabilities of platform-specific backup processes and storage solutions. Harbor Enterprise NSM works in conjunction with IBM z/OS mainframes. Beta Systems will be extending this functionality to non-mainframe environments later this year. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
