Discover SEP sesam

Johannesburg, 05 Jul 2012

SEP sesam is an enterprise backup, restore and disaster recovery solution for today's discerning computer environments.

The flexible backup and recovery of all common operating systems, virtual environments and hypervisors, along with a multitude of applications and databases, is a necessity for compliant companies.

Deduplication and replication as well as archiving capabilities across distributed locations are key features of SEP sesam. Migration of data is scheduled automatically, regardless of storage technologies.

Features:

* One software solution can replace multiple backup solutions. Backup Microsoft, Linux, Unix and more, along with databases and popular groupware solutions.

* SEP sesam backs up and restores all VMware virtual environments as well as Microsoft HyperV and Citrix XenServer environments, quickly and reliably.

* Hot Backup for critical databases is a valuable tool. For many databases, including DB2, Informix, MS SQL, MySQL, Oracle, SAP R/3 and Ingres, utilising SEP sesam modules specifically designed for independent databases, users and system administrators can recreate a database to a specific time (Point-in-Time) recovery.

* Our extensive groupware hot backup module abilities for MS Exchange, Lotus Notes, GroupWise, Scalix, OpenXchange, Zarafa and others allow for single mailbox and single mail restores.

* Using the SEP sesam Command Line Interface (CLI) or MS Powershell, users can create their own backup environments and notification schemes.

* Efficient, clear representation of Backup Savesets and high-performance search algorithms ensure data can be restored in the shortest time possible.

* Recovery can be made to a secondary (backup) server in the event of a disaster.

* Disaster recovery modules for Microsoft and Linux allow restoration in the shortest time possible to various similar or dissimilar hardware.

* Physical-to-Virtual (P-to-V) Disaster Recovery allows the environment to be recreated to a virtual machine, allowing users almost immediate access to critical data.

* Continuous media accuracy and readability testing ensure data can be read and restored when necessary. The results are stored for revision for specific recovery and logging.

* Unlimited data streams can be backed up at one time for rapid data backup. Backup windows can be reduced up to 80%, while simultaneously increasing backup volumes and reducing CPU loads.

* Migration and replication of data to all supported media types (disk-to-disk-to-tape). Users can schedule migrations (replications) of data from disk to tape, or vice versa, then rotate tapes to off-site storage to provide additional data security.

* Snapshots from virtual machines can be backed up online, without an interim backup, thus greatly enhancing VM backup and recovery times.

* Saveset Replication allows data blocks from remote locations to be synchronised and stored in Savesets.

* Cluster support for Microsoft, Linux, Novell OES2, Novell NetWare, etc.

* Novell OES Cluster Failover und Fallback Support ensures interrupt-free backup. In the event of node failure, SEP sesam finds the data and continues from wherever the backup stopped.

* HDW-Data Deduplication reduces data storage requirements.

* The new GUI has been optimised for large IT environments.

* Backup of MS Exchange 2010 Database Availability Groups (DAG).
