Taking Snapshots, Cloud Snapshots and Cloud Clones

Snapshots, Cloud Snapshots, and Cloud Clones are used to provide point-in-time protection of volumes, off-site backup copies, and improve recoverability while minimizing restore times.  These features are managed either through an MMC snap-in installed on your Windows Server machines called “StorSimple Data Protection” (which can be downloaded from the support FTP site using the link below) or through the Data Protection feature embedded in the Web UI.
