Rather than spend money on Networker SQL modules we backup a fair amount of
MSSQL and ORACLE data in the filesystem of the local machine or even on a
remote filesystem.

MSSQL on a cluser Oracle on a solaris server

Networker then makes sure that that backup is send as filesyetem data to the
tapes.

For us a ceaper solution and less errorprone than haven anoher backup product
in the house.

Simple storage useally is chaeper and easy to replace in case it breaks
