SQL Add-on

The SQL Add-on: Brief Overview

The SQL Add-on enables BackupAssist to back up Microsoft SQL Servers, and has the following benefits:

  • Live, online backups of your SQL Server databases
  • Include the SQL backups in your overall backup job (together with your files, system state, and/or Exchange server).
  • SQL Server backups are in the standard SQL Server Backup Format - meaning that you will be able to perform a restoration on any SQL Server, without any additional software.
  • You may also restore individual databases to different SQL Servers as well.
