StoreGrid’s Service Provider Edition, targeted at Service Providers offering online backup services to SMBs supports any form of disk-to-disk (D2D) backup and allows Service Providers to backup their customers’ workstations and servers to a remote backup server managed by the service provider. In addition to common user data, StoreGrid supports backups for Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, and Active Directory/System State. The powerful server replication functionality ensures easy data restores in case of a major data loss occurrence, and also facilitates staged backup solutions wherein offices can backup to a server in their internal network and selectively replicate data to an offsite server.
