Agentless Design for Enterprise Data Protection Management

Agentless backup reporting technology presents a major design challenge, but it is the only methodology that can deliver value in data protection management across the enterprise, with minimum impact on systems, people, and processes.

The agentless design of Bocada Enterprise solutions is the direct result of building our product specifically to meet the needs of the large, geographically distributed enterprise. Ease of installation, compatibility and version control, simplified change management, and minimized impact on network and system performance are just some of the advantages offered by agentless design.

Heterogeneous Support for All Data Protection Systems

Enterprise data protection systems are heterogeneous by design. As new technologies are added to the landscape, process management and control become more complex. Bocada Enterprise is the only data protection management solution specifically designed to work in complex heterogeneous environments to present a consolidated view of all data protection activities. Consolidation is the only way for IT management to standardize, control and validate performance of data protection systems and processes.

Application Centric Support: Oracle Recovery Manager

Bocada Enterprise 4 supports Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN), providing the insight necessary to effectively and cost-efficiently manage backup for Oracle-based applications in multi-tiered, disk-to-disk data protection infrastructures. Instead of relying on difficult to decipher messages from backup applications, you can get clearly communicated information on RMAN outcomes via the Bocada Enterprise 4 platform, saving time and improving clarity. Now it is easier than ever before to prove the restorability of critical data while meeting compliance mandates.

Client management feature aids with SLA

The new Client Management feature in Bocada Enterprise 4 makes assigning Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and meeting compliance regulations a reality across the scaled enterprise. The ability to tie SLAs directly to assets provides administrators with an instant global view into whether they are meeting policy mandates. In addition, the powerful, flexible search capability allows you to quickly locate unprotected or non-compliant assets.

Asset search and relationship mapping

Bocada Enterprise 4 includes numerous enhancements that allow you to map assets to logical business groupings across the large enterprise, regardless of location. The software can also automatically pick up new additions and map them to the system using previously set rules. By mapping assets to applications, departments, operating systems, priorities, regions and more, Bocada Enterprise 4 enables you to view the outcomes of data protection services against specific business priorities, hierarchies and service levels, as well as to understand specifics, such as the recoverability of a particular application or the backup services provided to each business unit.

GUI Enhancements

Bocada Enterprise 5 has a new look featuring an easy-to-use tri-pane browser with numerous standard reports organized into nine categories:

  • Backup Successes & Failures
  • Capacity Planning/Tuning
  • Charge-back
  • Media Capacity and Health
  • Media Library Utilization
  • Operational Reports
  • Risk Areas
  • Service Level Agreements
  • Tabular Reports

As you scroll through categories, an expanding menu shows the standard reports in each area. For larger environments that develop numerous customized reports, an on-the-fly text search function quickly locates stored reports to allow storage managers to find, run and then publish results quickly and easily.
Reports can be exported out as images (charts), HTML tables, or as CSV files for simple integration into other reporting programs or posting to an intranet. These same reports and formats can be published out to the web to provide easy access to the information to data owners, executive management or clients.

Enhancements to the Successes & Failures Reports include accessible icons, flyovers, and color coding for weekends that make the reports easy to skim for the most relevant information.
