Project Backup - Episode 3 - Backup Tape Native Restoration

About this episode

This episode discusses the scalable methodology of native restoration in backup processes.

    Native restoration is a scalable methodology that replicates the underlying technologies (backup software, operating system, etc.) that existed at the corporation (at the point of backup). Why Native:  •Many clients (who explore various methodologies) demand it  •Defensibility is their key driver  •Comprehensive restoration – may only need to restore once  •Traceable – chain of custody •Tools used are those approved and utilized by client IT staff  •Cost control and risk mitigation issues  •Create full catalogs using native backup technology  •Ability to build a database of key fields without full restoration   •Dumpster items (double-deleted items) in Exchange Less common email forms handled natively  Dean Felicetti 401.601.0927
