Continuous protection of SQL databases eliminates the daily backup window for SQL server and enables recovery of database transactions that have been made right up to the time of the hardware or software failure. Additionally, flexible recovery options allow IT administrators to restore SQL databases to destinations other than where they originated, directing a copy of the actual data streams being sent to media by a SQL database to a local directory for later use. The SQL Server 2008 snapshots are integrated into the Backup Exec catalog for a consolidated look at all data copies available for recovery in seconds. This agent provides SQL Server 2008, 2005, and 2000 users with granular protection on 32- and 64-bit systems down to the individual database or file group.
