IBM unveils software for real-time data backup
 

IBM plans to announce new data-backup software on Friday, becoming the latest and largest entrant into the market for continuous data protection.

IBM Tivoli Continuous Data Protection for Files, which is slated for release on Sept. 16, is designed to let workers automatically and continuously back up data to their computers or laptops, as well as send a copy to a remote company server.

"There are products out there that take snapshots of your data every hour or half an hour, but...you have to figure out what was saved and what was not," said Michael Nelson, IBM's On-Demand director of information.
