The protection software complements ADIC's family of automated tape libraries, using them to solve data protection problems. The software provides data protection for Windows NT (Windows New Technology) A 32-bit operating system from Microsoft for Intel x86 CPUs. NT is the core technology in Windows 2000 and Windows XP (see Windows). Available in separate client and server versions, it includes built-in networking and preemptive multitasking. servers by replicating bytelevel data changes, even when files are open, rather than backing up whole files during off hours. The product is available now through TechData and ADIC resellers. Multiple file versions are stored in the tape library where they are recoverable if data is lost or if users want to recover an earlier generation of a file. "The LiveVault methodology provides benefits for several applications," explained Jonathan Otis, ADIC vice president of product management. "First of all, because data replication is continuous and transfer of data to a tape library is automatic, it eliminates the problem of the 'backup window.' This means LiveVault can provide protection even for 24-hour operations like websites, e-commerce sites, and any other systems with short backup windows, including e-mail and transaction processing Updating the appropriate database records as soon as a transaction (order, payment, etc.) is entered into the computer. It may also imply that confirmations are sent at the same time. Transaction processing systems are the backbone of an organization because they update constantly. environments. A second major advantage of LiveVault is its storage in real time. Because the file changes are recorded continuously, files that are recovered may only be seconds old. When combined with automatic storage of multiple file versions, this feature is a match for applications like graphics, pre-press, or databases.
