Hi,<br />
<br />
There are two server 2008 r2 std machines that I need to back up locally and online. I am thinking something like Acronis or Back-up Exec to the NAS (would I need a license per server), and then back upthe NAS to an Online Back up service. This is all planning stages, and neither software or hardware have been purchased yet. Any suggestions?<br />
<br />
Thanks

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
