Sonasoft Becomes a “Front Runner” with the Latest Release of SonaSafe
Latest version of SonaSafe for SQL Server is recognized for its support of SQL Server 2005
San Jose, California - March 20, 2006
Sonasoft Corp. today announced it will launch a new
application using Microsoft SQL Server 2005, earning the
company Front Runner status from Microsoft Corp. SonaSafe
for SQL Server in combination with Microsoft SQL Server 2005
helps customers to protect their data through automated
disk-to-disk backup/recovery and intelligent standby
capability. SQL Server 2005 is the next-generation data
management and analysis software that will deliver increased
scalability, availability and security to enterprise data
and analytical applications while making them easier to
create, deploy and manage.
“Microsoft has always been committed to the success of our
broad ISV partner community and will continue to rely
heavily on that community to drive innovative solutions to
market,” said Pradeep Rathinam, general manager of U.S. ISV
Strategy in the U.S. Partner Group at Microsoft. “The Front
Runner program was designed to provide our partners with the
best development environment possible and give them the
technical and marketing tools they need to be successful
over the long term.”
Microsoft wanted to ensure that ISVs had access to a full
host of benefits to enable them to bring best-of-breed
solutions to market more quickly and effectively. Giving
ISVs the resources they need to fast-track the development
of these applications enables customers to start taking
advantage of the increased scalability, availability and
security of the application built on top of SQL Server 2005
almost immediately, increasing their company’s productivity.
“Sonasoft is excited to support SQL Server 2005 because it’s
a great platform and a great leap forward,” said Dr. Vas
Srinivasan, Vice President of Marketing at Sonasoft.
“Achieving Front Runner status enables us to deliver
applications to customers within the same timeframe as the
launch of SQL Server 2005. As a result of the solution we
have developed, we are uniquely positioned to help our
customers get the most from their technology investment.”
Sonasoft provides an integrated backup/recovery and
replication solution which is easy to use, automated and
cost effective. The Sonasoft Standby Solution bridges the
gap between a highly expensive Failover Clustering solution
and time-consuming native SQL Server Backups. Sonasoft
provides a high-availability solution, protecting data from
hardware/software failures and human errors. This procedure
completely automates log shipping practices and ensures data
integrity, enabling the standby system to take over
instantly in the event of primary system failure. The
standby system can be located on-site or at a remote site
for protection against natural and man-made disasters.
