Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager

It’s always interesting when organisation try to move into a space which has been on the edge of their core competency.

For a long time now corporate have trusted Microsoft file servers, but not trusted (because it’ been too noddy) Microsoft to protect that data. So rather than Microsoft going after the traditional backup market, which would be a really tricky sell they have started to go after a side market, and arguable an emerging market.

And so is born Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager.

Will they succeed – probably.
