BakBone ANNOUNCES FIRST PostgreSQL DATABASE BACKUP SOLUTION

BakBone Software, a global provider of storage management software, has announced the release of a new NetVault Application Plugin Module(APM) for PostgreSQL databases. The new PostgreSQL APM allows IT Administrators to schedule backups of either the entire database or individual tables within the database while the database is online and active.

"The new PostgreSQL APM is a full-featured solution that provides customers complete live data protection, securing their most important asset," said Kerri Taylor, APM product manager at BakBone. "The release of the PostgreSQL APM represents BakBone's ongoing commitment to provide application specific support to the Linux community. NetVault offers hot application backup for more applications running on Linux than any other storage management software manufacturer."

PostgreSQL, with more than 16 years of development from the open source community, is one of the most advanced open source databases. With its rock solid performance record and long time support of enterprise level feature sets, including transactions, stored procedures, triggers and sub-queries, PostgreSQL is being used by many of today's most demanding businesses.

BakBone's complete line of NetVault APMs ensures continuous data availability by providing fast, on-line backup and recovery for many business applications, such as DB2, Informix, MySQL, Oracle, Sybase, SQL and SAP. NetVault's modular architecture sets new standards in application backup support with simple point and click installation and seamless integration with application software. Local and remote client software installations and automatic client backup and restores can be easily administered across the network, all from one centralized management console.

Pricing and Availability:

The PostgreSQL APM is available now on Linux platforms starting at $1075. A free 45-day fully featured demo is available on BakBone's Web site at www.bakbone.com.
