The Simple Backup and Recovery Solution for Today’s High-Volume, Diverse EnvironmentsLiteSpeed™ for SQL Server allows DBAs to easily maintain complete control over the backup and recovery

process. It provides an enterprise view of the backup and recovery environment as well as flexible backup

and recovery options, including file attachments to backups, restoration of individual database objects, and

simplifying of data migration to any SQL Server. Additionally, the low-impact, high-performance compression

technology in LiteSpeed enables users to reduce storage costs, as well as SQL backup and recovery windows.

LiteSpeed’s backup engine compresses data up to 95 percent—and takes less than half the time required by

other backup solutions. It speeds up restore times by up to 70 percent, and includes the ability to recover

individual database objects. This powerful solution also offers an easy-to-use interface, scripting backup

and recovery commands via T-SQL, or a fully functional command line executable. Plus, LiteSpeed allows for

enterprise-wide deployment and upgrades through its remote installation capability.

LiteSpeed’s Job Manager: View and manage your backup schedules from LiteSpeed’s easy-to-use graphical interface.

LiteSpeed for SQL Server Features and Benefits:

Backup Analyzer: Allows users to test different LiteSpeed parameters and different backup locations. Every

environment has different challenges and the Backup Analyzer lets users expand the tuning capabilities with

just a few clicks.

Advanced Compression: Identifies additional compression points within the database. This reduces the size

of the backup file without impacting performance.

Encryption: Offers nine embedded encryption levels that are applied to data concurrent with the

backup process.

Database Categorization: Categorizes databases according to user specifications (PROD, DEV, TEST). It also

allows user defined categories with the ability to choose desired global views.

Centralized Reporting: Supplies efficient, centralized reporting. Users can avoid checking each server one

by one for backup failures by creating a single report for backup failures, throughput and compression rates.

“With LiteSpeed for SQL Server we have found tremendous value. We can restore just that one object, whether it’s been deleted, truncated, or partial data has been deleted from it instead of restoring the entire database. Knowing we will be finished faster while keeping the rest of the database available allows us to keep parts of the application running, thereby keeping the business running and making money instead of being offline waiting for the database to restore.”

Double-Click Restore: Allows users to create a database backup file that can be restored simply by double-

clicking the backup file. Users can create portable backup files and further reduce restore times in a disaster

recovery scenario. LiteSpeed is the only SQL backup solution to offer this feature.

Log Shipping Management: Allows users to easily configure and monitor both LiteSpeed and native log

shipping plans. The ability to visually monitor log shipping includes all relevant latency alerting and lets users

easily add and remove subscribers on demand.

Log Reader: Recovers data stored in transaction log files by rolling back any operation and reconstructing

transactions. Users can view and browse the online transaction log as well as LiteSpeed and native T-Log backups.

Configure and run all of your SQL Server backup and recovery operations from an easy-to-use graphical interface.

Object Level Recovery: Allows users the flexibility to restore individual objects from LiteSpeed and native

backup files. Users can restore tables, schema and rows.

Attached File Backup: Enables users to attach relevant documentation to their database archives. Attached

files can be restored by themselves or along with the database as part of the recovery operation. LiteSpeed

is the only SQL backup solution to offer this feature.

Backup Mirroring: Allows users to write a single backup to multiple locations simultaneously, eliminating

the need to make copies individually. LiteSpeed’s backup mirroring is available on both SQL Server Standard

and Enterprise Editions.

Row Level Recovery: Restores data down to the row level by incorporating SELECT statements into the

recovery process, returning only the data users need from their backup files.

LiteSpeed Maintenance Plans: Lets users craft maintenance plans with all the options of the native tool,

plus the power of LiteSpeed, regardless of how simple or complex the plans are.

Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) Integration: Schedules jobs and builds maintenance plans that can write

directly to TSM without the need for an additional agent.
