Unlike host-based backup solutions where the time to backup is proportional to the database size, Application Suite for Microsoft SQL creates snapshots instantaneously, irrespective of database size.
Scores of snapshots can be kept online economically, allowing extended or frequent recovery points.

It creates and manages hundreds of application-consistent, reservationless, snapshots of SQL databases.
