Microlite Introduces BackupEDGE Release 02.00.03
with Java
and Web Services Interfaces

ALIQUIPPA, PA -- June 15, 2004 -- Microlite Corporation is pleased to announce the availability of the latest release of its award winning BackupEDGE backup and disaster recovery software, featuring…

  • A new Multi-Mode Graphical / Character User Interface
  • Support for SCO® UnixWare® 7.1.4.

User Interface

BackupEDGE has a state-of-the-art user interface that can be rendered three different ways...

  • in graphical mode as a Web Service from any client system supporting Java†, such as a Windows® equipped PC.
  • in graphical mode on X11 consoles or clients equipped with Java†.
  • in character mode on system consoles, dumb terminals or xterm clients.

The user interface operates identically in all three modes (it is in fact a single compiled binary). No operator re-training is required. It features pull-down menus, one-key, on-line context sensitive help, and fast "key jump" access to most features.

The server being administered doesn't even need graphics capabilities. Any system having a Java-equipped web browser can now authenticate into and graphically manage a BackupEDGE installation over a secure, encrypted network link. If the server does have Java, then the Java interface can also be run under X11.

The Java and Web Services modes are theme-based. Users / VARs / OEMs may adjust color and graphics for a customized look and feel.

† Requires Sun® Java 1.4.2 or later.

UnixWare 7.1.4 Support

BackupEDGE and its companion RecoverEDGE™ disaster recovery component have been tested and modified to support the newest version of UnixWare beginning with this release. As Java 1.4.2 is a part of this UnixWare release, the BackupEDGE X11 Java interface is automatically enabled upon installation.

"Flexibility is a cornerstone of our products," said Frank Liberato, Vice President of Engineering at Microlite. "By leveraging the existing infrastructure of the Internet, our users can see an immediate benefit in ease of administration simply by enabling the Web Services interface."
