Webinar: Virtual Machine Backups – RTO and RPO Considerations for you SQL Server

Some companies take virtual machine snapshots of their web servers, their file servers, and their Citrix servers.

Backups are good. But it’s the ability to restore that is important.

We help a lot of companies prepare their SQL Server environment so that when a disaster strikes, they’ll be prepared. They know they have good backups. They know they can restore in a timely manner (RTO) and to a point-in-time (RPO) that is important to them.
