Hello Friends, You will be delighted to read that the next TSM is on
'Backup and Recovery' - an Open Source perspective. Abstract Backup refers to making copies of data so that these additional copies may be used to restore the original after a data loss event. These additional copies are typically called "backups." Backups are useful primarily for two purposes: 1. to restore a computer to an operational state following a disaster (called disaster recovery) 2. to restore small numbers of files after they have been accidentally deleted or corrupted. The talk scheduled to be held on Saturday, 11th August at 5pm will be delivered by Ms. Namita Iyer. Ms. Namita Iyer is a storage industry veteran with 9+ years experience, who has been involved in storage product development at Brocade, Veritas and CommVault among other companies. She will be talking about various backup & recovery technologies and industry trends.
