R1Soft to Showcase Benefits of Cloud Backups with its CDP Software at 2011 Cloud Computing Expo

R1Soft, developer of cloud backup and disaster recovery software, announced today that it will exhibit its high-performance Continuous Data Protection® backup software for Windows and Linux servers in the cloud at the 2011 Cloud Computing Expo, to be held June 6 through June 9 at the Javits Convention Center in New York.

Long backup windows and diminished storage performance, caused by growth in data size and demands placed on storage hardware by virtual machines, are key cloud backup concerns. R1Soft Continuous Data Protection ably addresses these concerns with its asynchronous replication innovation, which pinpoints specifically the changed blocks or deltas that must be read from disk while backup. By skipping the file system, CDP shrinks cloud backup windows from hours to minutes, minimizing the impact of backup and archiving on storage and performance in the process.

"Cloud Computing Expo is a perfect platform for R1Soft to furthermore the discussion on cloud backups - and in particular, how painful they can be for so many companies" said David Wartell, vice president of R1Soft, a division of BBS Technologies. "More than 1,000 cloud infrastructure providers have already implemented CDP. We want every other organization with servers in the cloud to know that CDP can vastly improve their backup and archiving performance as then. Cloud Expo is an excellent possibility to convey that message."
