Linux-based Software Solution
If you have a server that runs under one of the many Linux operating systems then you know the job of rebuilding the server if you lose the system for some unknown reason. It usually takes hours to reinstall the server software and all the original settings. imaging software is that they need to run in their own environment and not Linux. Acronis True Image 9.1 Server for Linux is one of the best server backup applications we've tried and it receives our Editor's Choice Award for functionality and value.

"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."

The Accelerator Server is a Linux-based software solution that ports many of the Application Traffic Management features of the new Expand Accelerator appliances like application acceleration and bandwidth efficiency tools that reduce wide area network (WAN) costs and improve application response times. The Accelerator Server allows the enterprise to automatically increase network capacity and improve application response times by 100-400%, stop bandwidth abuse and align network resources with business priorities. Unique features include next-generation compression, application acceleration, traffic discovery, Layer 7 application visibility, sophisticated reporting and Instant QoS.
And then, of course, we have the Standalone Server product, which is called Acronis True Image Server for Windows or Linux and that will manage a single standalone server. What type of computers can we back up, because in a medium to a large sized, even some small sized businesses, who knows what kind of computers they have They may have laptops, they may have desktops, they may just have anything and everything
technology
If you are an experienced computer user and want the freedom to administer your own server, you'll need a server with root access. 1&1 gives you the choice between the 1&1 Root Server, based on the Linux platform, or the 1&1 Windows Server 2003, based on Microsoft technology. 1&1 Root Servers and Windows Servers give you full root access, allowing you to install new software, perform configuration, access system files, and oversee all aspects of the server yourself.

Making WAN Application Deployment Easy
The time it will take you to backup your Linux server depends on the type of backup, the media storing the image, whether it's performed over a network and the spindle speed of the server's hard drive however the speed is competitive for this type package. Acronis True Image 9.1 Server for Linux is priced at $699 and $399 when upgrading from a previous version. Visit the company's web site for rmation at www.acronis.com.

The new Accelerator Server can be deployed as an application service, optimizing the delivery of applications over the WAN without any direct network interaction. Non-intrusive deployment off an Ethernet switch in the data center and branch offices, environment autodetection and automatic traffic redirection make the deployment of the Accelerator Server a matter of minutes. Standard failover protocols and redundant configurations provide maximum uptime.
