Quest Software has announced NetVault Extended Architecture (XA), a new platform that unifies Quest’s data protection technologies in order to align backup and recovery to client SLAs. While legacy data protection software often focuses on servers and other infrastructure, the new NetVault solution is aimed at management and protection in mixed physical, virtual, and cloud environments which require a unified solution to meet continuity and availability requirements.
Rather than offering a single consolidated administrative view intended for the generalist backup administrator, NetVault XA provides specialists such as DBAs, application administrators, and VMware administrators access to customized views and workflows that map to the specific SLAs associated with each role. With this emphasis on focused visibility and access, administrators can leverage specialized data protection tools to perform granular, platform-specific backup and recovery tasks.
Quest intends NetVault Extended Architecture to become the centerpiece of its data protection portfolio, helping customers to deploy and manage all of Quests’s backup and recovery technologies, including the NetVault, vRanger, LiteSpeed, and Recovery Manager. This extensible architecture is designed to grow seamlessly from SMB to enterprise storage as an organization’s needs evolve.
