HT Backup

Protecting mission-critical data is becoming even more complex as technology advances, companies expand, and data volumes increase. To address these challenges, organizations need a high-performance backup and restore solution — one that provides on-line or off-line backup, and one that supports increasingly heterogeneous environments.

BridgeHead's HT Backup is an Enterprise Wide Backupsystem which performs backup and restore of data, databases, and applications. It provides easy, economical access to large capacity, high-performance data storage via three-tier open architecture, centralized management, distributed robotic control, and media management capabilities.

HT Backup provides automatic, unattended backup of PCs, workstations, departmental servers, and enterprise systems across networks, or to local tape/optical drives or tape/optical libraries. It can handle a virtually unlimited number of concurrent sessions between any number of network nodes. In addition, it serves the broadest possible mix of clients, servers, and storage media devices, and adapts easily as your infrastructure changes. HT Backup scales to an almost unlimited number of nodes, due to its unique, separate control node and multiple backup server approach.

HT Backup includes HT OpenMedia, a media management system that provides enterprise wide media management for volume, saveset, and device management under robotics or human operator control. At the heart of OpenMedia is a database providing a model of your enterprise, including media resources and their management policies. The system utilizes object oriented database technologies to maintain and manipulate objects which represent physical items in the enterprise, such as tapes and hosts, or abstract entities such as media pools, localities, and user privileges. OpenMedia's client/server architecture allows for distributed implementations of backup and storage management strategies at multiple locations, across a worldwide computing enterprise.
