      How Live Recovery works:

      Block-level snapshots

      Rapid Recovery captures your SQL Server data, as well as the application itself, in a collection of block-level snapshots for backup.

      Application awareness

      Rapid Recovery makes sure that all open transactions and rolling transaction logs are completed and caches are flushed to a disk before it creates a snapshot. Rapid Recovery leverages Microsoft VSS for application-consistent snapshots.

      Fast restore technologies

      Rapid Recovery restoration of metadata allocation tables and database structures, along with its filter driver and queuing technology, lets you get back online within seconds after a failure.

      File prioritization

      If a user attempts to access data while a restoration is in progress, Rapid Recovery will determine whether that particular data has been restored and will prioritize the immediate restore of the requested record as necessary. Your end users get fast access while recovery continues in the background — with zero impact on their application experience.

      How Verified Recovery works:

      Automated nightly checks

      When you protect using Rapid Snap for Applications, Rapid Recovery tests every backup automatically, assuring you that your backups are fully recoverable — eliminating the need for time-consuming manual backup testing.

      Integrity checks

      Rapid Recovery performs nightly backup integrity checks on all protected servers in just a few seconds.

      SQL attachability check on host SQL

      Rapid Recovery performs nightly attachability checks on the source agent to reduce the load on the Core server and limit SQL licensing problems.

      Notifications

      If Rapid Recovery finds problems with a sql backup that would prevent you from restoring the data, it notifies you so that you can fix the backup issue proactively.

      Microsoft SharePoint Server Backup and Recovery

      Get near-continuous data protection with instant recovery.

      Hero CTAs (up to 3)

      How Rapid Recovery Works

      Quest Rapid Recovery uses block-level snapshot backup technology to protect your Microsoft SharePoint environment. You can take snapshots as often as every five minutes to help reduce risk of data loss.

      Rapid Recovery provides fast recovery time for SharePoint, whether you are looking to restore an individual object, a complete server, or even an entire server farm.

      Because a SharePoint farm includes multiple servers and databases, and because the SharePoint front-end web server is typically a machine protected on a Rapid Recovery core, recovery for an entire SharePoint farm would typically happen from the recovery point.

      Introducing DocRetriever

      To quickly restore a single SharePoint object, the Rapid Recovery DocRetriever for SharePoint feature lets you recover and restore Microsoft SharePoint objects from the site collection level down to the component level.

      DocRetriever enables you to browse all the documents and objects within a SharePoint farm, site, and site hierarchy directly (with intact permissions) from a Rapid Recovery recovery point.

      You can also use other recovery sources, including a SharePoint content database, SharePoint farm, native Microsoft SQL Server backup, native SharePoint backup, or native SharePoint differential backup.

      How DocRetriever works

      When you restore SharePoint data, all permissions and metadata are preserved. In addition, DocRetriever audits and logs all operations to easily identify the objects that were added or modified. DocRetriever performs all restore operations through the supported SharePoint APIs for compliance.

      You have a number of options when restoring SharePoint data with DocRetriever:

      Restore in place
      You can restore items to their original locations in the production SharePoint server environment.

      Restore to another location
      You can restore objects to any other location within the live SharePoint server.

      Restore to a system
      You can restore items without rebuilding the entire production database or using a SharePoint recovery farm. You can also restore objects to a file system.

      Summary

      You may need to restore an entire SharePoint server or farm. You may want to restore a single document that has been inadvertently deleted. You may need to restore dozens of documents used by a specific employee, in response to a legal request supporting a claim or lawsuit. Or you may have experienced a data loss and need to restore order information or transactions since the last backup.

      Regardless of the scope of data you need to recover, Rapid Recovery, along with DocRetriever, are powerful tools to aid your enterprise with fast, easy system and data recovery.

      Hero CTAs (up to 3)

      How it works:

      Rapid Recovery Core

      Load the Core onto a dedicated Windows server. The Core stores all of the data blocks of your backups. Please note product support for the DL Series Backup and Recovery Appliances has been discontinued. Please contact sales to arrange the updated software only licenses.

      Rapid Snap for Applications

      Install a lightweight agent on each of your protected servers. The agent will backup your data without interfering with the server’s primary function. Initially, the backup performs a snapshot that captures all of the server’s data blocks and sends them to the Core. Once the original backup has finished, from then on the backup collects only the blocks that have changed. It bundles them into snapshots, deduplicates them, compresses them and sends them to the dedicated Core on a schedule you set.

      Rapid Snap for Virtual

      Discover new agentless backup protection of VMware VMs. Based on proven vRanger backup technology, Rapid Snap for Virtual uses VMware vSphere APIs to manage and perform the backup operations for each source system. No other backup agent is required, and there is no need to disrupt users and apps to deploy backup protection. Get automatic protection for newly provisioned VMs.

      Verified Recovery

      The Verified Backup Recovery feature performs automated nightly mount checks of file systems as well as Exchange Server and SQL Server instances. If it finds problems with your backups that would prevent you from restoring the data, it notifies you so that you can fix the issue proactively and ensure the reliability of your backups.

      Live Recovery

      Experience server backups that give you near-continuous access to the data you’ve backed up and protected by presenting user-requested data directly from the backup file during the restore process.
