(DCIG) - This has been a bit of a quiet week in terms of blog entries on the DCIG website but I did not want to leave everyone hanging on the Friday before going into the Memorial Day weekend. So for this week's recap blog I opted to reflect on a conversation that I had with Hosting.com's Backup Operations Manager a few weeks ago. In that conversation, he provided some interesting perspectives in terms of how Hosting.com is using R1Soft in its environment.
The individual I spoke to was Cliff Pankonien, Hosting.com's Backup Operations Manager. Pankonien and his team are responsible for protecting all of Hosting.com's client data and use R1Soft's Continuous Data Protection (CDP) Enterprise Edition on both its Linux and Windows servers.
To do the backups, the R1Soft CDP software takes daily snapshots of each application server and then copies the data contained in that snapshot to an R1Soft CDP Server.
