Idera Updates SQL safe and SQL virtual database
Idera announced SQL safe 6.4, its SQL Server backup and recovery solution. DBAs can now manage an organization’s network of SQL Server backups across trusted and non-trusted domains, execute previous backup operations by choosing to rerun a single failed policy job or rerun the entire policy, and verify backup files directly from the SQL safe Management Console. Idera has also released SQL virtual database 1.4, a solution that lets backup files look and act like an actual SQL Server database. With updated features users can run queries, insert and delete data, run reports, and perform index fragmentation and database integrity checks against SQL Server database backup files.
