  9. Easy backup/restore/move • No longer stores any FWA data in the file system • All FWA data is stored in a single database • Greatly simplified backup/restore of FWA • Straight forward to migrate FWA between servers routinely or in the case of catastrophic failure • Routine backups to another server for disaster recovery are now possible
