Syncsort is happy to announce that Warsaw University of Life Sciences Department of Hydraulic Engineering and Environmental Restoration (DHEER) recently choose Syncsort Backup Express (BEX) to protect their Novell OES2, Linux, GroupWise and Oracle environment. Robert Michalowski (engineer responsible for IT in DHEER) cited BEX's superior support for Novell products and seamless integration with Novell architecture, especially OES2, as important criteria in their decision.
"Backup Express is especially well-suited to the Warsaw University of Life Sciences enterprise environment due to their OES2, GroupWise and Oracle components," commented Don Marcotte, Syncsort's International Sales Manager.
Robert Michalowski continues, “We were looking for backup software able to back up a growing amount of GIS data stored in our Oracle database; user’s data on their OES2 NSS volumes; and data stored in our GroupWise system. BEX’s Novell YES! Certification, guaranteeing good cooperation of the backup software and Novell software components was very important for us, as was the confirmation from Syncsort that our hardware will be correctly utilized by BEX.”
Backup Express was the first solution to offer data protection for clustered OES environments and continues to provide extremely reliable Linux support, providing Novell customers with the full spectrum of backup and recovery features for SLES and OES, including support for mixed OES2 cluster failover. Working with Novell developers, at well above and beyond Yes! Certification level, Syncsort has pioneered advances in performance and functionality for enterprises that use Novell technologies.
Backup Express includes protection for NSS (Novell Storage Services) volumes and properties on OES2 and SLES10 systems, and allows users migrating to SUSE LINUX, which Novell acquired in 2003, to restore data that they backed up on NetWare. Backup Express's industry- leading support for Novell includes support for SLES maters servers, OES clients and device servers, eDirectory, GroupWise, NLBS, snapshots and backup through SMS. Backup Express is YES! certified on all Novell product lines.
