Traditional data backups often do not meet the demand of today's SMB administrator due to time constraints and the increased complexity of backups. The combination of Hitachi Simple Modular Storage and Adaptable Modular Storage systems and Symantec's Backup Exec 12 backup and recovery software allows administrators to focus on the important tasks of running the business without having to worry about the datacenter's backup and recovery demands.
Symantec Enterprise Vault provides a software-based intelligent archiving platform that stores, manages and enables the discovery of corporate data from e-mail systems, file server environments, instant messaging platforms and content management and collaboration systems.
