Business computing’s recent shift to virtualization has been mind-blazingly fast. Companies everywhere are experiencing the cost reductions and process improvements that come with that jump to virtual computing. Yet there’s one critical element of your basic, run-of-the-mill systems administration that hasn’t necessarily gotten easier: Backup and restore. Backups in today’s virtual environments gain functionality, but at the expense of greater complexity, painful administrative processes, and the doubling or tripling of backup data.

The problem is that virtual backups can have multiple perspectives. Confused whether you should backup your virtual machines using agents installed into the VM?  Is it smarter to use host-based backup to grab an entire VHD or VMDK file, all at once. Or, should you perform your backups from your SAN itself? So many options, it seems like there should be a better solution.

There is. In this groundbreaking webinar, Microsoft MVP and VMware vExpert Greg Shields exposes the pitfalls in today’s multiple virtual backup perspectives. He shows you why yesterday’s backup solutions are fundamentally ill-suited for backing up today’s virtual environments. You’ll also see the power in today’s new paradigm in backups, “Backup 2.0”, which stands to revolutionize virtual administration by eliminating the backup problem completely.

We'll also hear from Brendan Hourihan, network engineer at Flagler College, who will provide a firsthand account about the benefits of Backup 2.0 in a virtualized environment with Replay 4 from AppAssure Software.



Joshua Hoffman, Lead Geek at AppAssure Software will moderate this lively and interactive discussion.





You owe it to yourself to set aside some time to see what you’re missing in state-of-the-art backup and recovery software technology.
