Arkeia Software has developed a series of options to enable online backup of a wide range of applications and databases, without ever having to take the application or database off line. Modules are available to perform live backup of widely used applications such as Lotus, Open-Xchange (including SLOX), LDAP, and MS Exchange, as well as leading databases such as Oracle, mySQL, PostgreSQL, DB2, and MS SQL.

While there are many technologies which can copy and protect data through the enterprise, Arkeia Software's extensive experience with live application and database protection delivers:

• Fast and reliable backup of live applications and databases
• A consistent, easy-to-use interface which abstracts application or database-specific idiosyncrasies
