Active Directory is a widely-known service for centralized management and user authentication in Windows-based environments. Administrators can manage computers added to the domain centrally, which is convenient and time saving for large and distributed infrastructure. MS SQL and MS Exchange usually require Active Directory.

That’s why backing up your Active Directory is important. Today’s blog post explains Active Directory backup best practices including effective methods and tools.
