| Abstract |

Microsoft
SQL presents a number of challenges for proper storage management
and data protection. This lecture addresses a number of the most critical
challenges, including: Backup
& Restore: Transactional databases present a unique challenge
to administrators. While numerous backup software products support
backing up SQL either cold or hot via SQL's backup APIs, they do not
provide granular, point-in-time restores for specific database transactions.
There are options available now to provide a centralized, transaction-level
backup that can be easily restore by a systems or database administrator.
Clustering & Replication:
SQL databases are often at the backend of websites, internal applications,
and other mission-critical business functions. This lecture offers
several solutions to clustering and replication SQL databases for
business continuance or disk-based restores.
Students will leave the lecture with a broad understanding of the
technologies and techniques for simplifying the SQL backup environment
and taking better control of their database environments. Hopefully
you will be surprised by how simple and affordable many of the solutions
can be. |
