EMC
announced May 27 that it has begun shipping a new middleware bundle
designed to simplify data backup and recovery on the two most
ubiquitous business servers in the world—Microsoft Exchange Server and SQL Server -- when they are deployed on the VMware platform.
The bundle includes backup/recovery support for the new EMC Clariion
AX4; backup and recovery that features de-duplication from EMC Avamar;
data protection enabled by EMC RecoverPoint across multiple application
environments; and increased application availability enabled by VMware
VMotion.
The new releases help speed up recovery from unplanned outages and
enable backup and migration of entire virtual environments with no
interruption in service, an EMC spokesperson said.
