Designed for enterprises of all sizes, DPM offers reliable recovery and efficient protection. Be it individual file servers or mission-critical Microsoft applications, DPM offers disk-to-disk-to-tape protection.

DPM version 2 includes support for Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server.

“DPM version 2 combines the concepts of continuous data protection and traditional tape backup, online and offline, into a single product, enabling a zero-data-loss configuration for applications,” said Kirill Tatarinov, corporate vice president of the Windows Enterprise Management Division at Microsoft, in a press release.

According to the release, DPM version 2 helps customers keep an eye on data changes in real time. The system facilitates zero data loss recovery with a patent-pending agent technology. DPM version 2 ensures minimal downtime and reliable application recovery with a perfect integration of tape and disk.

“The combination of Dell’s (News - Alert) flexible PowerVault Disk and Tape storage offerings with Microsoft’s DPM running on Dell PowerEdge servers offers customers a simple, cost-effective solution that helps ensure data is protected and rapidly recoverable,” declares Darren Thomas, vice president and general manager of Dell Computer Corp.’s storage business.

DPM version 2 may prove helpful for IT administrators. They can safeguard and recover all applications or application objects with application terminology and concepts such as mailboxes for Microsoft Exchange Server or file shares for Windows file servers.
