Symantec Backup Exec (TM) 2010 R3

Symantec Backup Exec (TM) 2010 R3, developed by Symantec Corporation, is a Windows-centric data protection and disaster recovery solution designed for small to mid-sized organizations and departmental IT environments. It protects both physical and virtual servers, streamlines backup administration, and enables fast, reliable recovery of systems, applications, and individual items.

Key capabilities:

• Broad platform coverage: Protects Windows Server environments and major Microsoft applications, including Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint, and Active Directory, with optional agents for other workloads.
• Virtualization support: Provides image-level and file-level protection for VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V environments, helping safeguard entire VMs and enabling granular restores from a single backup.
• Granular recovery: Uses Granular Recovery Technology (GRT) to restore individual emails, documents, and directory objects without full database recovery.
• Flexible storage targets: Supports backup to disk, tape, and disk-to-disk-to-tape workflows, with encryption and compression to protect data and optimize capacity.
• Deduplication option: Reduces storage consumption and network usage by eliminating redundant data across backups.
• Simplified Disaster Recovery: Enables bare-metal restores to the same or dissimilar hardware to minimize downtime after major failures.
• Centralized management: Offers a single console with policy-based scheduling, job prioritization, reporting, and alerting, plus modular add-ons for multi-server administration.

Backup Exec 2010 R3 is licensed with a base media server and add-on agents/options, allowing organizations to scale protection as needs grow. As a 2010-era release, it is considered legacy software today, but it remains representative of Backup Exec’s focus on efficient, application-aware backups and rapid, granular recovery.
