New offering to continuously track changes to files on Windows and Linux servers
R1Soft, a developer of backup software for Windows, Linux and Virtual Machines, has released CDP Standard Edition 3.0. The Continuous Data Protection (CDP) is a replication software that continuously tracks changes to files on Windows and Linux servers and periodically copies these changes into point-in-time backup images.
The company said that the backup images can be used for both restoring individual files and a bare-metal disaster recovery. The R1Soft CDP works on commodity hardware and uses minimal hardware resources credited to its asynchronous method of replication.
According to R1Soft, the CDP Standard Edition supports internal hard disk drives, iSCSI, FC-attached storage, or network file servers; and enables users to open and close CDP Standard Edition Disk Safes, which can be copied and transported on USB drives or transferred on the network with any simple file copy utility.
The CDP Standard Edition enables smaller organisations to protect their data in real time and also allows them to reconfigure CDP Standard Edition to start replicating to this target on the fly, R1Soft said.
In addition, the CDP Standard Edition creates a workable and verifiable DR and business continuity plan within hours and enables users to use the type of storage devices that meets their requirements; and adapt this offering as their application and recovery demands grow and change, the company added.
