Who Should Read This Book

---

This book should provide helpful information for anyone who is involved in protecting the ever-growing volume of data that everyone depends on. This could be the person in the information technology (IT) or information services (IS) department, the database administrator, or the backup administrator. This could also include the value-added reseller (VAR) who is responsible for assisting his or her clients in setting up a backup and restore system. Also, anyone who currently uses VERITAS Software's NetBackup will find this book invaluable, especially the detailed appendices. This book is also a necessity for anyone who wants to complete the ultimate computer library. There is a chapter that discusses the other major applications that are available, where we give equal billing to the 'major players.'
