Abstract
Techniques for continuous data protection are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for reducing data protection system outages comprising polling a data protection client device, receiving a response from the data protection client device, parsing the response to determine whether restarting a data protection process is required, and restarting a data protection process on the data protection client device, if restarting the data protection process is required.
