In this new Lab Report, openBench Labs examines AppAssure backup and replication software v4.7 with Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R2. AppAssure implements changed-block tracking technology to provide data protection for both virtual and physical servers in specific OS environments. In contrast, Backup Exec 2010 R2 uses traditional file-based backup to promote compatibility with the largest number of operating systems.

In this study of data protection for environments with virtual and physical servers running Windows, openBench Labs tested AppAssure Backup and Replication software v 4.7 and Acronis Backup & Recovery 11. Both solutions utilize block-based technology to unify data protection operations.

Reports by leading industry analysts like Gartner, IDC and Concentrated Technology suggest virtual servers in 2011 will eclipse physical servers in total server deployments. The majority of today's business computing environments already have both virtual and physical servers at the same time.

The single biggest challenge for IT personnel involved in the data protection process is making sure that their backups are recoverable every time. Management and users won't remember the ninety-nine successful recoveries but they will always remember the one failure.
