Backup and Recovery for Microsoft Exchange Server Best Practices with Data Domain

The 24x7 uptime expectation of Exchange messaging systems in enterprise environments is now the norm. With global operations and advanced telecommunications (e.g., smart phones, etc.), individuals and corporations are communicating around the clock. This leaves administrators with the challenge of tighter data protection and system maintenance windows.

Protecting Exchange information is critical and backup is still the primary method used. Combining traditional backup with other methods such as clustering, replication and continuous data protection provide for a robust Exchange protection strategy. This paper focuses on the traditional backup and recovery practices for Exchange along with solutions from Data Domain.

Topics include:

  • Database Structure
  • Exchange 2007 Features
  • Data Protection Strategies
  • Exchange Server Data
  • E-mail Archiving
  • Using Backup Applications
  • Data Domain Technology Overview
  • Best Practices Recommendations

In an organization, Exchange backups do not happen in a vacuum. When the Exchange backup sets are sent to the same deduplication storage systems that are holding the backups of other Windows based user files, the overall deduplication effects can often be compounded. This is partly due to the fact that much of the data moving through Exchange is usually similar to the data that exists or is being saved on the users systems.
