Microsoft backs up disk-based backup plans

Looking to get further into the storage business, Microsoft announced on Monday that it plans to enter the market for disk-based backup and recovery products.
The company, however, will be entering a segment of the storage market that is already crowded with such established players as Veritas Software. Analysts anticipate that Microsoft will focus on the low end of the market and later try to penetrate the high end, on which Veritas focuses.
