'''System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM)''' is a software product from [[Microsoft]], designedthat toprovides helpnear-[[continuous data protection]] and [[Informationdata Technology|ITrecovery]] professionalsin manage thea [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] environment. It is part of the [[Microsoft System Center]] family of products and integrates [[disk-to-disk]] and near-[[continuous data protection]] for reliable recovery of Windows server workloads. Previously known as '''Data Protection Server''', DPM is Microsoft's first entry into the near-[[Continuous data protection|continuous backup]]/[[Data and data recovery|recovery]] industry. It also uses Microsoft's [[Shadow Copy]] technology for continuous backups.

==Overview==

Data Protection Manager delivers centralized backup of branch offices and within the data center, by near-continuously protecting changed files at the [[byte]]-level to a secondary disk, which can then be backed up to tape. This also enables rapid and reliable recovery from an easily accessible disk instead of waiting to locate and mount tapes.

Data Protection Manager 2006 was released on September 27, 2005 at [[Storage Decisions]] in New York.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2005/sep05/09-27SCDPMLaunchPR.mspx|title=Microsoft Launches System Center Data Protection Manager as Part of Its Universal Distributed Storage Vision|date=January 2011}}</ref> at [[Storage Decisions]] in New York<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cioinsight.com/c/a/Trends/Business-Continuity-Dominates-at-Storage-Decisions/|title=Business Continuity Dominates at Storage Decisions|date=January 2011}}</ref>.
