Today's Personal Computers (PC) do more work and hence hold more important and meaningful data than before. This demands the necessity of better PC data protection services. In this concern we surveyed three major PC data protection tools, namely, Seagate Corporation's Client-Exec, Computer Associates Cheyenne Backup, Xpoint Technologies Uptime and analyzed them in terms of Restore Time and Total Cost of Ownership.

Show moreToday's Personal Computers (PC) do more work and hence hold more important and meaningful data than before. This demands the necessity of better PC data protection services. In this concern we surveyed three major PC data protection tools, namely, Seagate Corporation's Client-Exec, Computer Associates Cheyenne Backup, Xpoint Technologies Uptime and analyzed them in terms of Restore Time and Total Cost of Ownership. Though these standalone tools are good in terms of PC data protection, IT managers still prefer Enterprise tools because they offer better services in terms of usability, manageability and platform independency. Combining the two tools will benefit each other. Hence we developed a solution to this problem by integrating these two types of tools. Integration of third party products with System Management Server (SMS) extended its services. But in order to make this integration generic, independent of the Enterprise tool, Web Based Enterprise Management integration strategy is adopted. Integration with Adstar Distributed Storage Manager (ADSM) extended services of the third party product. Integration of third party products with SMS and ADSM combined the benefits of the two and WBEM integration showed that this is the future direction.
