CA ARCserve Backup for Windows EBS 2008

In conjunction with Microsoft’s Windows Essential Server Solutions announcement, CA, Inc. announced the availability of CA ARCserve Backup for Windows Essential Business Server (EBS) 2008. Integrated with the EBS centralized administration console, CA ARCserve Backup offers Microsoft customers an easy to use and affordable solution to manage exponential data growth across their organization, while helping to fulfill business continuity, disaster recovery and regulatory requirements.

“Mid-market IT teams are feeling the strain of providing critical data protection to their organizations with limited staff and resources,” said Adam Famularo, senior vice president and general manager for CA’s Recovery Management and Data Modeling Business Unit. “CA ARCserve Backup provides the high-caliber backup and recovery they need, and simplifies administration through integration with the EBS console.”

Because of CA’s early participation in the EBS beta program, early adopters have already deployed it in EBS implementations to meet business objectives.

“We are challenged with providing our clients instant access to up to ten years of documents and making room for new ones,” said Tim Dreyling, Information Systems Manager at WASSER Studios. “With CA ARCserve Backup and EBS, we can pinpoint historical information down to an exact tape, and make it available for rapid response to their requests. The combined solution has allowed us to improve customer service, and enhance our productivity levels.”

“Our midmarket customers are excited about using EBS to increase the manageability and reliability of their IT systems—which will help them boost businesses productivity and growth,” said Eric Kidd, general manager, Windows Server Division, Microsoft Corp. “We are pleased to support CA’s ARCserve Backup for Windows Essential Business Server as it provides important, integrated data protection capabilities to help customers achieve these goals.”
