	Ensure business continuity through reliable, automatic data protection and disaster recovery. GuardTower™ Backup and Disaster Recovery (BUDR) provides real-time automated disk backup, disk imaging, file level backup and bare metal restore for Windows servers and workstations. Unlike conventional file-based only products, GuardTower™ BUDR creates an image of the entire system state – including operating system, business applications, user settings, drivers and data – giving administrators the framework to completely rebuild a downed system in less than an hour. The solution is part of the GuardTower™ IT Support Service, giving us the ability to deploy, configure, manage, monitor, secure, back up and restore distributed systems from a single management console. GuardTower™ BUDR provides: - Fully-automated real-time backup - Fully-automated off-site replication - Fast and easy recoveries Efficient backup cycles - Full or incremental backups can be scheduled regularly or on demand through an intuitive management console. Central management allows administrators to monitor the entire backup process from a single Web-based interface console (regardless of the physical location of each system) enabling administra tors to log into the solution from anywhere with an Internet connection, including from home overnight or during the weekend. - Incremental backups are conducted efficiently on reliable disk media, shortening the backup cycle dramatically. The efficient process has a low footprint, reducing the impact it has on systems performance. - Automatic discovery technology ensures that all systems on the network are reliably backed up, leaving no systems and no data unprotected. - BUDR works in the background without requiring a system shutdown or interruption to end users, making sure that all servers and workstations are always available. Complete restores in under one hour - Whether you need to recover a single file, restore a crashed workstation or completely restore a system from bare metal in the event of a disaster, GuardTower™ BUDR provides administrators with the most comprehensive, reliable and cost-effective server and workstation protection. - Through point-in-time imaging, BUDR can restore any system to its latest state, including operating system, business applications, data and user settings. - Systems can be completely restored in less than one hour, dramatically minimizing downtime and helping to get employees back up and running quickly. Fully Automated Real-Time Backup - GuardTower™ BUDR takes the backup responsibility out of the hands of the end user and into the hands of a trained IT professional, making sure that backups are done regularly and reliably. The administrator can manage the entire process from a central location, eliminating the need to physically visit each backed up system. He can schedule full and incremental backups or conduct them on demand through the intuitive interface. All processes are automated and occur when scheduled. Complete Disk Imaging - GuardTower™ BUDR can conduct volume-level, folder-level or file-level backups with multiple partitions in place for easy organization and robust security. Full and incremental images provide granular restoration points for point-in-time recoveries and reduced file-size transfer for quicker and more efficient off-site replication. The solution ensures complete data protection for all programs, settings, configuration, system and user data. Fully Automated Off-Site Replication - Once a backup is created, replication technology ensures that the images are automatically migrated to a safe and secure off-site facility, separated geographically from the main data center. In case of a major data center loss – such as a flood, fire or natural disaster – the backup images can be replicated to replacement equipment quickly to ensure that the business can get back up and running as fast as possible. The process is completely automated, eliminating the need for an administrator or member of the business staff to remember to take media home or drop them off at a storage facility. Fast and Easy Recovery - GuardTower™ BUDR allows for fast, efficient recoveries, giving companies the ability to bounce back more quickly following a major event resulting in data loss. The solution enables point-in-time recoveries to the last backup, making sure systems are up to date with the latest settings and data set. Administrators can completely restore a system from the ground up in less than an hour through an intuitive bare metal restore process. For more granular recoveries, administrators can simply drag and drop selected files and folders or remotely mount drive volumes. Universal Restores - In a pinch, companies are not always able to find similar replacement equipment. GuardTower BUDR allows systems to be restored to dissimilar hardware or even virtual machines, eliminating the procurement and interoperability factors when trying to get the business back up and running quickly. Flexible Configuration and Control - GuardTower™ BUDR integrates seamlessly with the GuardTower™ systems management framework, allowing IT administrators to completely manage, monitor, secure and protect systems from a singleWeb-based management console. Systems can be configured globally by group (policies can be customized to include location, business unit, OS type, brand, etc.) or locally by individual servers or workstations. Backups can be completely automated and left unattended to recover lost files within minutes. The GuardTower™ client is deployed and updated automatically and remotely, eliminating the need to travel to branch offices or across a campus environment. Unlike other data protection solutions, no additional hardware or software is required. GuardTower™ BUDR completely automates the backup process, allowing administrators to schedule full and incremental backups of selected volumes, folders or files.
