New add-ons available for IBM Lotus Foundations Start
The following IBM Lotus Foundations Start add-ons are separately purchased
products.
IBM Tivoli® Continuous Data Protection for Files 3.1.6 for Lotus Foundations
Start provides data protection for user's Windows® workstations, laptops, and file
servers. This add-on offers transparent, real-time replication and traditional backup
services, and can operate independently of Tivoli Storage Manager. Files can be
replicated to both the local disk and a remote target. In situations where network
connectivity is temporarily unavailable, files are queued up and replication is
resumed once the remote target is available, thus providing continuous data
protection, while maintaining the ease of use and administration IBM Lotus
Foundations Start offers. Includes easy single-click installation to user
workstations, ability to pre-configure backup options for users, and uses IBM Lotus
Foundations idb capabilities to do an additional backup of data (which can be
restored in case of disk failure). For more information, see the IBM Tivoli
Continuous Data Protection for Files 3.1.6 for Lotus Foundations Start add-on.
IBM Lotus Foundations Rescue is a disaster recovery solution designed for IBM
Lotus Foundations Start. It features advanced Intelligent Disk Backup (idb) features
and a remote server for storing backup files. Vaulting is the process of sending
backup data off-site, where it can be protected from hardware failures, theft, and
other threats. IBM Lotus Foundations Rescue online data backup feature ensures
that your business data can be securely restored and recovered at any time and
from any location. To use IBM Lotus Foundations Rescue, you need at least one
IBM Lotus Foundations Start server and one IBM Lotus Foundations Rescue server.
For more information, see the IBM Lotus Foundations Rescue Server.
IBM Lotus Foundations Reach provides secure company-wide instant messaging,
voice over IP (VoIP) and video chat capabilities. These features facilitate quick and
easy real time communication between employees regardless of their physical
location, while also reducing the business' telecommunication costs. For more
information, see the IBM Lotus Foundations Reach add-on.
