Selecting and Protecting the Right SharePoint Backup Targets
SharePoint is a complex platform with many moving parts and dependencies, and most administrators know that they need some form of backup protection to safeguard their environments. When it comes to actually protecting a SharePoint environment, though, what should an administrator focus on? What's important? In this webcast, we'll take a look at SharePoint disaster recovery with an eye towards identifying farm protection targets. We'll examine all of the common (and many of the not-so-common) elements that need to be protected by a backup strategy, discuss why those elements may or may not be important for any given environment, and talk about tools and technologies that are available for protection. We'll also cover some special circumstances and watch-outs that may help or hinder efforts to protect targets that are selected within a farm. By the end this webcast, viewers will be able to prioritize backup targets in their SharePoint environments and select appropriate strategies for protection. | Sean P. McDonough | View on Demand |
