SQL Server Backup v10.6 Released by DataBK

DataBK Software, in online SQL database backup software, announced the SQL Server Backup v10.6, a professional backup and recovery software for MS SQL Server.

"This release contains some great features our users have been demanding," said Mike Zhou, DataBK software production manager. "Of course support for SQL Server 2012 backup – but we’ve also added the ability to maintain a mirror of online backups in the local network for lightning fast recovery and superior redundancy. This will give our users another flexibility to protect their SQL Server databases."

While version 10.6 is technically a maintenance release,
it contains some new features:

• Backup and Restore SQL Server 2012: SQL Server 2012 is supported in this version, it supports all SQL Server versions since MS SQL Server 7.0, both express and enterprise editions.
• Backup and Restore multiple databases in single job: Previous version, it restores only one database in a job, by using v10.6, DBA can select as many databases as he want in single job, this feature is useful when restoring whole SQL Server databases.
• Send backup to remote computer over IP: This software includes a Storage Server module, this module is a TCP/IP server application, it can be installed onto any computer that has IP connection, backup agent sends backup to this service via IP connection, supports both local or remote network.
• Primary and secondary backup devices: In this version, DBA can save backup in two places at same time, primary and secondary devices. This feature enables DBA make mirrors of online backups and the backup system more reliable. When creating a restore job, DBA can specify which device is used to read backup.
• Convert DataBK backup to native SQL Server backup: SQL Server backup software includes both GUI and command line utilities that convert DataBK backup to native SQL Server raw backup. Native backup can be used in SQL Server Managment Studio or Enterprise Manager.
• Copy database between servers: Logshipping is a good way to sychronize two databases. If database administrator is not an advanced DBA, it is not an easy job to setup log shipping between servers. By using this software, DBA needs just few points and clicks, follows step by step wizard window, this complicated job become easy.

Copying database between servers
also become easy by using this feature:

• Select backup automatically in database restore job: If all backups are data base full backups, it is easy to select backup in a restore job. But in most cases, to save backup disk space and backup time, DBA should create database full, differential, transaction log backups for a database, it is hard to select all required backup if he is not an advanced DBA. By using SQL Server Backup software, selecting backup for restore job becomes easy, this software can do this hard job for DBA automatically.
• Restore database to point in time: This software is able to restore a database to the latest state. But DBA may want to restore database to time point that some useful data is mis-deleted, not to the latest state,in this case, he can specify the time point in restore job to do this.
• Compress and AES 256 bits encrypt backup data: Not like other SQL backup software, SQL Server Backup compresses and encrypts backup on the fly, no temporary file created, AES encrypt key length can be 64,128,256 bits.
• Delete expired backup, and send email confirmation after job: If DBA specify a backup space recycle period, this software deletes expired backup automatically after job, it can also send DBA an email confirmation on success or failure. With these two features, DBA don’t have to check remote server every day, he just check the email and everythig get control.
