Overview:
Customers rely on Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, and various internet/intranet applications as key business applications. Even short periods of unexpected downtime can have a serious impact on productivity and in the event of a system or network failure, the ability to back up and/or restore data quickly and consistently is vital. The challenges of backing up data - for example, backup jobs overflowing their backup time window because of open files and/or open applications - led to the development of snapshots. Snapshots allow administrators to "Snap" a copy of data allowing applications to continue running. Microsoft developed VSS (Volume Shadow copy Service) as a common framework to resolve these issues.
