SALT LAKE CITY, USA: iDATAsure.com will release a new version of their software on July 1, 2009 with new features for remote backup servers for business. With the update there will be support of Windows Server 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 as well as System State Backup and Restore (Bare-Metal Recovery).

iDATASure.com now supports Microsoft Windows Server 2008, as well as all other leading operating systems which can run Java2 Runtime Environment 1.4.2 or above.

iDATASure Advanced comes with modules specially designed for backing up common database applications, including Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server, Lotus Notes/Domino, Oracle and MySQL.

The problem that many businesses have is getting backups for cases when there is either no hardware or the hardware cannot be replaced because it is outdated. iDATASure addresses this issue with an offsite data backup system.

"In the case of a total-loss disaster where the existing hardware failed or was no longer available (theft, fire, etc.), a system state backup allows the option of restoring to a new computer with different hardware. The backed up image containing the complete operating system and installed applications with the latest configurations and settings, along with all data, can be restored easily to a new computer."

StorageCraft ShadowProtect and Windows System Backup allow users to recover data after a disaster. There are a number of products like theirs on the market that help facilitate a bare metal restore. However, both lack the ability to perform remote offsite backup easily and efficiently.

By combining ShadowProtect and Microsoft Windows System Backup with iDATASure's expertise in automatic remote offsite backup technologies, businesses can perform complete bare-metal system backup.

iDATASure.com's Advanced backup client makes it easy to backup data for better protection no matter what the hardware. A 'bare metal restore' is the process of reformatting a computer from scratch. It usually involves reinstalling the operating system and software applications and then attempting to restore the data and settings.

"One of the problems with backups is that they are tied to specific hardware. In the event of a disaster, existing hardware must be replaced with the same make and model. iDATASure.com has now integrated with StorageCraft's ShadowProtect and Microsoft Windows System Backup to offer automatic remote offsite bare-metal system backup and restore to eliminate this problem."
