Syncsort's Backup Express Supports Novell Open Enterprise Server
WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., Feb. 14 -- Syncsort Incorporated is proud to announce that Backup Express, its high-performance data protection product, is committed to offering seamless support for Novell's SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (SLES9) and Open Enterprise Server (OES) products. Backup Express will be the first solution to offer data protection for clustered OES environments and continue to provide the most reliable Linux support in the data protection market, supporting Novell customers with more backup and recovery features for SLES and OES than any other software vendor. Backup Express will include protection for NSS (Novell Storage Services) volumes and properties on OES and SLES9 systems.
Backup Express has unique, strong support for all of Novell's products, and the two companies are working together to create the next generation of integrated storage solutions. Novell's OES is the first product to integrate the choice and flexibility of open source software with the power and reliability of proven networking software, combining NetWare, the trusted leader for secure networking services, and SUSE LINUX, a leading open platform for delivering business-level applications. Novell Cluster Services(TM) and Business Continuity Clustering for OES are evidence of Novell's continued commitment to offer high availability services.
Syncsort will display its commitment to Novell customers with a demonstration of OES cluster backup and recovery at the Novell BrainShare conference, March 20-23 in Salt Lake City, UT.
"Syncsort is a key technology partner for us, consistently providing support for the cutting edge of Novell technology," said Hal Bennett, vice president of global business development for Novell. "Today's announcement of Syncsort's commitment to support Open Enterprise Server is the latest development in our collaboration. This combination of Novell Open Enterprise Server and Syncsort's Backup Express is designed to help provide our customers with a comprehensive and seamless data protection strategy across the enterprise."
"Continuing our ongoing collaboration with Novell, Syncsort is pleased that Backup Express is the first data protection product to offer support for Novell Open Enterprise Server and its built-in clustering for high availability," said Dan Regan, senior vice president, Syncsort. "Novell incorporates the best from open source and enterprise networking applications and makes Linux deployments accommodating and responsive to business changes, while ensuring that services are always up and running."
