HOUSTON, TX – Jan. 21, 2015 — /BackupReview.info/ — R1Soft^®, creator of the R1Soft Server Backup Manager (SBM) product line, released the new eBook, “The Big Book of Backup,” a comprehensive guide that provides a thorough explanation of the technical functionality and terminology used on a daily basis when setting up or configuring a backup management system. Along with providing a brief history of how the backup industry evolved to its current status, the eBook defines and explores methods of backup, backup technologies, computing deltas and managing and restoring data.

“The objective of the vast majority of backups is to save data without errors or corruption in a way that minimizes storage space as well as to reduce the impact on computing resources and bandwidth usage, while making the recovery process as quick and easy as possible,” said Ben Thomas, Product Director at R1Soft. “We strive to educate the industry on achieving these objectives and this is the perfect piece of content to bolster your knowledge of the world of backup, whether you’re a seasoned systems administrator or a newcomer to the backup industry.”

The eBook explores the pros and cons of file- and block-level backups, various techniques utilized by backup systems to determine data deltas, definitions for the three main recovery objects and looks into the future of the industry. The pros and cons of each of the four methods of server backup – full backups, incremental backups, differential backups and virtual full backups – are also discussed in detail.
