Editorial Review of Tivoli Continuous Data Protection for Files

Most users aren't used to employing their Web browser to configure programs as you do with IBM's Tivoli CDP for Files. But applications playing in the enterprise arena, including Tivoli, often use an HTML interface so they can be easily accessed across a WAN. This latest, 3.1.1.2 version of CDP for Files was a pleasant surprise?a swan has replaced the ugly duckling interface of last year's version 2.2. It's the slickest and easiest to use GUI of the CDP programs in this roundup.

Playing on the big stage where literally billions of dollars of data is at stake also tends to weed out weaklings--CDP has been around for a while. It does exactly what you need done, does it reliably, and stops there. It watches folders and files you specify and copies them to both a local storage destination and an external destination such as a network drive, keeping as many revisions as you want. You can use encryption and compression or stick with plain file copying.

Once configured, CDP for Files sits in the system tray and does its duties with a minimum of fuss. I noticed no system slowdown, but there's a right-click option to disable the program temporarily if you're doing something disk intensive. IBM's CDP for Files is a bit pricey, but it works well, and there's just something about having software with an enterprise bloodline protect your data that gives you peace of mind.
