One of the challenges with SharePoint is tooling for both farm recovery and granular recovery, and one company is aiming to solve the problem.
Autonomy, in the meantime, publishes strong Q3 results with GRC at their center.
Disaster Recovery for SharePoint
For disaster recovery, Quest Software (news, site) has just released an advanced version of Quest Recovery Manager for SharePoint, complete with disaster recovery. While there are a number of recovery tools for SharePoint on the market already, this one claims to be the only one that offers farm level disaster restoration.
According to Quest, the biggest challenge with SharePoint recovery is finding a single tool to perform both complete farm recovery and granular recovery based on a simplified search. This version of Quest Recovery Manager for SharePoint fills this gap, the company says.
The recovery tool uses existing and native SharePoint backups that provide granular level restoration by:
