Acronis® Recovery™

for Microsoft® SQL Server

Acronis® Recovery™ for Microsoft® SQL Server offers a fast and

reliable disaster recovery solution to protect your SQL database.

Acronis Recovery for MS SQL Server provides proven database backup

technology that will drastically reduce disaster recovery time so you

can be running again in minutes instead of hours. One-step Recovery

and Automated Recovery to Point-of-Failure reduce downtime and

assist your organisation in improving your Recovery Time Objective

(RTO). Rolling Snapshot enables near-instantaneous recovery in cases

of human error or logical data corruption.

Acronis Recovery for MS SQL Server is an excellent complement to

the award-winning Acronis True Image suite of disaster recovery and

system migration products, that use patented disk-imaging technology.

Together they deliver comprehensive server system backup and restore

plus full MS SQL database protection — a winning disaster recovery

plan combination.

Why Database Backup?

Comprehensive recovery requires more than just data backup. Your MS

SQL Server database contains tables, logs, and other components that

structure the data. Using Acronis Recovery for MS SQL Server, a cohesive

and intuitive backup solution, is critical to ensure a secure live database

backup that can be quickly recovered.

Recovery is now made easy with automated system restore to

point-of-failure. No need to walk through menus to get your system back

online. This one-step process will return your database to the last known

good state just before failure. Erroneous transactions will no longer cost

you minutes or hours in recovery.

This powerful product includes an intuitive wizard-driven GUI that guides

you through the scheduling process and reduces the possibility for

errors. The Backup Strategy Assistant creates a Disaster Recovery Plan

for your environment, delivering step-by-step instructions for recovery.

Anyone, whether an experienced DBA or not, can schedule backup jobs

and restore a system rapidly. Acronis even provides FTP capability for

storing your backup on any FTP server, worldwide.
