FalconStor's Windows-based iSCSI Technology Supplements Microsoft Systems Center Data Protection Manager 2006, and Provides Additional Disk-Based Protection

Business Wire, Oct 25, 2005

ORLANDO, Fla. -- FalconStor Augments DPM's Underlying Storage with iSCSI Virtual Storage, Remote Replication, Bare Metal Recovery, and Continuous Protection for Microsoft Exchange and SQL Servers

FalconStor Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: FALC), a leading provider of network storage software solutions, today announced a comprehensive set of value-added services, based on FalconStor's award-winning iSCSI Storage Server for Windows solution and DiskSafe(TM)product, optimized for Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM) 2006.

IT managers can leverage FalconStor's software to:

--Provision iSCSI virtual storage and data replication services to the DPM server

--Replicate the DPM server's data over any IP network with 100% data integrity

--Remotely boot and recover (Bare Metal Recovery) the DPM Server and its protected Windows File Servers

--Extend the DPM server's scope with continuous, block-level protection and rapid recovery services for Microsoft Exchange and SQL Server

DPM provides rapid and reliable disk-based backup and recovery for files on Windows servers. FalconStor's Windows-based iSCSI Storage Server augments DPM environments by enhancing the capabilities of the DPM server's underlying centralized disk storage. This includes delivering network-based disk protection services to other application servers, provisioning storage to the DPM server, and thereby providing remote replication of DPM's snapshots of Windows file-based data to a secondary location for disaster protection, with centralized zero-impact backup to tape. DiskSafe for Windows, FalconStor's advanced host-based replication application, enables Bare Metal recovery of the system volumes of DPM-protected file servers by the replication of each file server's system volume to the iSCSI Storage Server in the event of a system crash.

"FalconStor's product technology is very complementary to System Center Data Protection Manager, and offers an additional layer of protection to businesses of all sizes," said Ben Matheson, Group Product Manager, at Microsoft Corp. "Microsoft is pleased to continue to work closely with FalconStor on the common goal to provide customers with affordable disk to disk protection that improves recovery point and recovery time objectives."
