I am writing this blog, as I would like to share with you all regarding Bare Metal data protection. Anyone who has lost system disk on a server, workstation or laptop has gone thru pain, trouble and frustration of restoring the computer to its original state. While it is necessary to recover lost files and data, the process to installing operating systems, re-downloading or installing all the applications, locating and entering their licenses keys or authorization codes can be time consuming. It invariably happens that it is impossible to bring back computer to its original state, where in you might have misplaced license keys or authorization codes for operating system or for any important software of yours. To overcome this trouble there are software products available which offer Bare Metal Data Protection.
BareMetal is a technology through which you can restore an entire system from backups to new hardware without requiring a reinstall of the operating system or requiring initialized disks. This technology is designed to dramatically decrease the time and effort required to restore a computer to its original state in the event of a system failure. BareMetal protects not only the typical files and data of the user but also the operating system and applications.
The following shall give better understanding between the two:
Data recovery to a new computer in a TYPICAL recovery environment
Step1: Get new computer or fix existing computer
Step2: Install or reinstall operating system
Step3: Install hardware Drivers
Step4: Install Operating System Updates
Step5: Reinstall Software Applications
Step6: Setup Operating system and applications
Step7: Restore backed up data
Step8: Computer Ready to Use
Data recovery to a new computer using BAREMETAL
Step1: Get new computer or fix existing computer
Step2: Boot thru Bare metal media
Step3: Restore Operating System, applications and data from previous operation
