LiveVault demonstrates their automatic, real-time data backup and recovery solution. Using an onsite backup appliance, backed up by an online mirror, redundancy and service quality are guaranteed for mission-critical data that can be controlled from a web interface. The demonstrators showed a very selective set of data picked from the backup repository that was restored from the browser without searching for a specific piece of backup media (like "tape #27). Great DEMO trick: disconnect the backup appliance which is "stolen" by a thief running through the DEMO hall who snatches the appliance from the DEMO-er's hands. Calmly, he goes to the web and restores the data from the online service. Bonus: a cameo video appearance by Monty Python alumni John Cleese portraying the director of the mythical Data Trauma Institute.
