DATA RESTORATION: A MANDATORY OPTION FOR CRITICAL COMPUTATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS: CASE STUDY: ZIPRO VS. JAR COMPARISON

So far, there are no software-archiving suites available to offer options/services like data restoration or data recovery. This option becomes critical in situations in which licenses are involved (like non-free computational environments) as well as in computation environments where data loss is critical. For such situations, any loss leads to large amount of money spent for recovery. Moreover, there are situations for which this attempt is eventually impossible. This paper intends to circumvent such situations by presenting a practical solution for these kinds of problems. It also takes into consideration some vulnerabilities that .jar format has, from data restoration perspective.
