![]() |

Rapid data growth, viruses, system crashes, theft, misplaced, corrupted or stolen backup tapes are driving demand for reliable, disk-based backup solutions. In fact, businesses are estimated to spend $6.7 billion in 2010 on data protection technologies, up 30% from 2005.
Advanced Vault offers small and midsize businesses a cost-effective and turnkey backup system.
Advanced Vault provides the hardware and software needed to perform data backup at the block level to reduce duplicate data and bandwidth usage. Advanced Vault provide software agents that get installed on desktops or severs running applications such as Microsoft SQL and Exchange Servers, which transfer data to the appliance with little effort and bandwidth utilization. Backups can run continuously or scheduled, providing an increased amount of restore points when compared to traditional systems.
A Single Source Solution
Advanced Vault is an attractive alternative to traditional backup solutions.
Advanced Vault is an all-in-one and a single-source system that offers
greater efficiency, compatibility, reliability, ease of use, and reduced
total cost of ownership compared to traditional and multi-source solutions
such as tape backup systems.
Offsite Backup
Data stored on Advanced Vault appliances can be sent offsite automatically
to another appliance or to Advanced Vault's secure and high-availability
facilities
Bare-Metal Restore
Advanced Vault offers bare-metal recovery software, which allows
restorations to similar or dissimilar hardware. Once the image is loaded
onto the new server you can manipulate the hardware abstraction layer by
injecting new drivers for the new hardware.

Before using Storage Guardian, our LAN Discovery Tool scans your network and provides detailed information about your company's data. This helps you observe, think and apply your backup decisions on a more informed basis, and back up only the data you need – keeping your costs low. |

"Bare Metal" Data Recovery onto Different Machines
Storage Guardian can perform "bare metal restores" – restoring
the entire operating system, applications, settings and data for an
entire machine – onto a new machine with different hardware
than the original one. So if disaster strikes and you need to
restore your data onto completely different machines – a common
scenario – Storage Guardian can do this effortlessly. Buyer
beware: Most remote backup providers who do not emphasize this
ability CANNOT perform disaster recovery this way.

Agentless Architecture: Install on ONE Machine and Protect the Entire Domain
Unlike other leading solutions, Storage Guardian does not require
you to install software agents on all your machines - just the one
server that runs the backup/restore system and sends the data to the
secure off-site data vault. Our "Agentless Architecture" makes
deployment easy on any network.

"Local Restore" Feature for Speedy Recovery
A copy of the latest data being sent to the off-site data vault can
also be stored on your local network. In the event of a disaster,
you can restore your latest data quickly at LAN speeds – even if
you're using inexpensive WAN technologies such as DSL or cable.

high-capacity Internet backbones in the industry, consisting of
bi-directional OC-12 & OC-192 rings that extend throughout Canada

Advanced Technology for Smarter Backup and Restoration
Storage Guardian's technology is packed with sophisticated features.
For example, our "send once" technology recognizes where data is
duplicated across a network – no easy feat – and sends only one copy
to the server, minimizing your costs and increasing efficiency. And
our Message Level Restore feature enables you to restore email data
- down to a single email message for a specific user.
