SnapShot and SnapManager for Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft
SQL Server, Microsoft Sharepoint and VMWare solutions.
NetApp integrates with
Microsoft File Shares, Exchange, SQL Server and VMWare.
NetApp Snapshot technology
provides a point-in-time copy of a file system; enabling organizations
to implement data recovery of individual files or entire file
systems. The snap shot technology is not limited to file systems
but snap shots can be taken of Microsoft Exchange mailboxes
and SQL Server databases allowing the fast recovery of these
systems
The cost and complexity of architecting, implementing, and
managing
traditional enterprise storage infrastructures can be substantial.
And
when the needs of the dynamic enterprise inevitably change—often
quickly and even dramatically—traditional static systems
require
reprovisioning, which causes disruption and increases management
overhead and risk. To address this, IT organizations often
must
overprovision systems and preallocate resources, which are
costly
and lead to poor utilization—and offer only temporary
relief from
inevitable expense and disruption. Furthermore, the performance
of
traditional static systems is inherently bound by the I/O
capabilities
of the individual storage devices.
Together, Network Appliance™ FlexClone and FlexVol
technologies enable entirely new opportunities and ways of
working
for organizations grappling with the challenges of increased
overhead,
management costs, and data risk. NetApp FlexVol technology
delivers true storage virtualisation solutions that can lower
overhead and capital expenses, reduce disruption and risk,
and provide the flexibility to adapt quickly and easily to
the dynamic needs of the enterprise. FlexVol technology pools
storage resources automatically and enables you to create
multiple flexible volumes on a large pool of disks. This flexibility
means you can simplify operations, gain maximum utilization
and efficiency, and make changes quickly and seamlessly. NetApp
storage solutions enable you to add storage when and where
you need it without
disruption and at the lowest incremental cost.
Today's enterprise operations depend heavily on Exchange to
facilitate vital communications such as e-mail, scheduling,
and calendaring. Databases supporting these mission-critical
applications are growing in both size and importance. Unavailable
Exchange features can halt business operations. Consolidating
Exchange data onto a unified, flexible NetApp storage solution
produces greater availability, productivity, and cost efficiency.
The NetApp and Microsoft relationship enables a best-of-breed
storage solution for Microsoft Exchange. NetApp products are
listed on the Windows® server catalog, assuring a thoroughly
tested and fully supported storage solution. Network Appliance
storage configurations are also passed through the Microsoft
Exchange Solution Reviewed Program (ESRP) to validate our
performance for Microsoft Exchange Server deployments.
