DPM 2010 RTM!!!

It is a bit late to announce, however that is just due to my  blog’s maintenance!

Finally this day has arrived ob the 19th of April. It has been so long in the making, and yet it seems like time flew by.

Check out the official blog announcing the RTM launch: https://www.microsoft.com/systemcenter/en/us/data-protection-manager.aspx.

SC DPM 2010 - RTM annc

Here are a few of my favourite features in DPM 2010:

  • The ability for roaming laptops to get centrally managed policies around desktop protection, so that your laptop data is protected, whether you are connected to the corporate network or remote
  • Enhanced virtualization protection, including Hyper-V R2 LiveMigration scenarios and the ability to recover single-files from within host-based backups
  • Additional protection and recovery capabilities for Windows application servers like SQL Server, Exchange or SharePoint
  • Native site-to-site replication for disaster recovery to either another DPM server or an off-site cloud provider
  • Significant enterprise-scalability increases for deploying DPM in large environments
  • Centrally managed System State and Bare Metal Recovery

The RTM Evaluation Software for DPM 2010 is now available at: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/bb727240.aspx
