How does Continuous Data Protection work in BackupGrid?
CDP technology tracks all changes to your protected data from the point of the initial backup. “Changes” literally refers to things like adding or deleting a slide in a presentation, or editing a paragraph in a Word document. With updates to files continually captured and protected, you can ‘roll back’ any protected file to a specific version or point-in-time, such as last Tuesday’s version of the PowerPoint presentation, your customer database just before it got infected with that virus last week, or your entire system state after a data catastrophe. Because the technology is extremely efficient and only transmits the changes to the files after the initial backup has been performed, the normalized bandwidth usage is quite low relative to the total amount of data you have protected.
