Office Web Apps is a new Web-based productivity offering from Microsoft Office 2010 suites. Office Web Apps include companions to Microsoft Word 2010, Microsoft Excel 2010, Microsoft PowerPoint 2010, and Microsoft OneNote 2010. These Web-based applications are stand-alone applications focused on offering access to Word 2010, PowerPoint 2010, Excel 2010, and OneNote 2010 documents through any browser across multiple platforms; lightweight creation and editing capabilities in standard formats; sharing and collaboration on those documents through the browser; and a variety of Web-enabled scenarios. Documents created by using Office Web Apps are no different than documents created by using the corresponding desktop applications. The associated services are used to prepare documents for viewing and editing in a Web browser

All Office Web Apps will support backup and recovery regardless of whether there is a UI setting. However, backup and recovery only applies to the service-level and administrative-level settings; Web Part properties are not backed up as part of this process. Also, URLs must be fixed after a restore process.

In addition to providing backup and restore functionality, Office Web Apps provide Windows PowerShell functionality that you can use to provision the service from scratch or provision a new instance that uses settings from a previous backup, configure and manage application proxies and service applications, and configure the global settings of the service.
