Market Definition/Description
Gartner defines enterprise backup and recovery software solutions as vendor-developed solutions that capture a point-in-time copy (backup) of enterprise workloads in on-premises, hybrid, multicloud and SaaS environments. These solutions write the data to a secondary storage target for the purpose of recovering this data in case of loss. They can be offered as software-only, hardware or virtualized appliance, or as a SaaS-based, BaaS.
Protecting and recovering business application data irrespective of the underlying infrastructure type and location is now more critical than ever before. As enterprises move toward more complex environments that include mass amounts of data, enterprise backup and recovery software solutions are expected to protect these workloads, whether they reside in on-premises, hybrid, multicloud or SaaS environments.
Enterprise backup and recovery software solutions are vital to an organization's ability to recover data following events that cause data to become inaccessible. Whether the event is accidental, malicious or environmental, organizations utilize these solutions to effectively recover and restore access to the affected data.
