Through a collaboration with AvePoint, storage and data management solutions provider NetApp has integrated DocAve’s award-winning technologies and user-interface into its SnapManager for Microsoft SharePoint Server (SMMOSS) software. Leveraging AvePoint’s “best-in-class” granular restore technology, flexible Smart Backup Plan Builder, and elegant browser-based interface, NetApp and AvePoint have created a robust tool for SharePoint Administrators.
As SharePoint Becomes a Mission-Critical Tool, Demand for Solutions Rise
Adoption of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS) has accelerated as companies seek a competitive edge in information sharing and collaboration. As organizations of all stripes take advantage of the potent toolset MOSS offers, the size of SharePoint deployments and the number of discrete SharePoint instances increases rapidly.
One consequence of this has been a greater level of complexity involved in the administration, protection, and management of SharePoint deployments. Additional time and energy must be dedicated to guarantee business-critical information is organized, accessible, and protected. Resources must be allocated to ensure appropriate backup and recovery routines are in place, proper access and permissions rules are maintained across sprawling environments, and streamlined availability to information is safeguarded. Tools have become increasingly necessary to allow managers to easily scale their SharePoint infrastructure, continue to meet stringent SLA commitments, and improve the productivity of both their SharePoint and storage Administrators.
NetApp Utilizes DocAve Technologies For More Effective Backup & Recovery
Since 2001, AvePoint has taken the lead in providing the comprehensive solutions necessary to administer SharePoint deployments effectively. The company’s award-winning DocAve software platform provides the world’s most robust SharePoint Backup & Recovery, Archiving, Migration, Replication, Administration and Compliance tools available, all managed via a single, browser-based interface.
SnapManager for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2007 integrates the “best-of-breed” technologies of both NetApp and AvePoint to provide a revolutionary SharePoint backup & recovery tool. The software sits atop NetApp’s heralded SnapManager solution stack and combines NetApp’s “snapshot” backup technology with AvePoint’s sophisticated indexing and SharePoint-intelligent recovery architecture. This powerful collaboration gives Administrators both the freedom to execute backups at rapid speeds and the flexibility to perform truly granular, full-fidelity restores.
SMMOSS Solution Benefits:
- “Snapshot” speed and unlimited scheduling for SharePoint backups
By utilizing NetApp’s SnapManager for SQL platform, SMMOSS can backup entire SharePoint databases in minutes. Optional delta-only (Δ-exclusive) snapshots and unlimited plan-scheduling allows for effective storage and resource management.
- The Flexibility to restore what you want, when you want it
Whether it’s an entire database or a single item, SMMOSS provides the flexibility to restore only what’s needed. Utilizing a single “snapshot” and a full-text keyword and identification criteria mask search-engine, SMMOSS targets and restores any piece of content while limiting unnecessary outlays of valuable system-resources and time.
- True restoration, with true full-fidelity
With DocAve’s comprehensive indexing architecture nothing is left behind. SMMOSS restores lists, libraries and items (including events, links, tasks, contacts, announcements, discussion boards, surveys, issues, custom lists, areas, sub-areas, portal links, layout templates), all metadata (including all versions, permissions/securities, and authorship histories), and all SharePoint workflow definitions.
- Recognizable look, smooth navigation, and truly centralized management
A single browser-based interface with “SharePoint-centric” task and banner bars provides for easy navigation among all SMMOSS solution tools.
- Robust and versatile real-time reporting
Fully customizable logging, reporting and e-mail notification lets Administrators monitor multiple SharePoint 2007 farms, both local and remote, in real-time.
