4. Blu Ray has just arrived on the market and we can be sure it will be used for the upcoming years Requirements One major problem we see in the real world is archived data that s in an obsolete format For example someone wants to restore archived data which is stored a long time ago but does not have the correct applications to restore or open the data To avoid situations like this you might find it helpful to archive not only data but also copies of the installation media for the applications that created the data If you use this approach don t forget to also archive copies of any necessary license keys nCoActive also stores all the archiving software including a virtual copy of the backup server the license files which are needed and of course all needed software to startup the virtual standby so data retrieval is easier Because of the way we archive data not only files but also everything needed to be able to work with the data like the server with the applications used archiving has become easier than it has ever been Redundancy Archived data can be encrypted but it could happen you lose the encryption key or the media for example a disaster strikes and everything including the disks are lost nCoActive will hold a copy of every archive which will be stored in a disaster proof safe together with the needed encryption key this key will be stored separately at an accountants firm active er CES lA J X User manu
