Summary

Comprehensive recovery requires more than just data backup. Your MS SQL database contains tables, logs, and other components that structure the data. Using Acronis Recovery for MS SQL Server, a unified and intuitive backup solution, is critical to create a secure live database backup that can be recovered successfully.

Recovery is now much easier as Acronis delivers automated system restore to the point of failure. No need to walk through menus to get your system back online. This one-step process will return your database to the last known good state just prior to the failure. Erroneous transactions will no longer cost you minutes or hours in recovery.

This powerful backup and restore solution includes an intuitive, wizard-driven GUI that guides you through the scheduling process and reduces the potential for errors. The Backup Strategy Assistant creates a Disaster Recovery Plan for your environment, delivering step-by-step instructions for recovery. Anyone, whether an experienced DBA or not, can schedule backup jobs and restore a system rapidly. Acronis even provides FTP capability for storing your backup anywhere on the network — or around the world.

The highest level of flexibility is achieved by using Acronis Recovery for MS SQL Server Software Development Kit, which is included at no additional charge. Your organization can customize and use proven Acronis data management technologies with your existing software tools and frameworks.
