NetApp Microsoft SQL Server Backup and Recovery

The NetApp backup and recovery solution for Microsoft SQL Server allows you to reliably recover data in seconds and easily meet backup windows at a more economical cost than that of traditional backup approaches.

NetApp backup and recovery solutions help you increase the availability of your Microsoft SQL Server databases and applications using NetApp data management software.

  • Easily meet backup windows with near-instantaneous backups.
  • Create point-in-time copies as frequently as once per minute.
  • Enable each backup to be in a recoverable state.

NetApp Snapshot™ technology lets you quickly create space-efficient point-in-time copies of your SQL Server data. Using NetApp SnapRestore® technology, you can revert a failed or corrupted database to a saved Snapshot copy in a matter of seconds, with no data movement required. With SnapManager® federated backups you can simplify data protection of SQL Server applications where data is distributed across multiple SQL Server instances and databases.

  • Reliably restore any-size database in minutes from a Snapshot copy without moving data.
  • Further protect your operations with SnapManager's restore-to-marker capability.
  • Cost-effectively store hundreds of SQL data backups on disk for recovery by only storing nonduplicate data.
  • Efficiently replicate backups to other locations for additional protection.
  • With SQL Server 2012 you have the option to use NetApp SMB storage as an alternative lower-cost storage infrastructure.
