Advanced Backup Copy

Use NAKIVO Backup & Replication to create several copies of primary backups to ensure that critical data can be recovered after any failure. Backup copies are created from primary backups with no impact on production machines. Store backup copies on secondary backup repositories deployed offsite or in the cloud to strengthen data protection and avoid a single point of failure.

Backup Copy

Multiple Backup Copy Options

Choose what data you want to copy and where:

All backups: Create a mirrored copy of your primary backup repository and automatically keep your secondary repository up to date with all backups and recovery points. You can also set different retention policies for your primary backups and their copies.
Specific backups: Create copies of specific backups or choose the recovery points you want to copy to the secondary repository.
Critical backups: Copy only the backups containing critical data for business continuity and service uptime to save storage space and speed up data transfer.

To improve backup data cyber resilience, you can make copies immutable and encrypt them before sending them to a wide range of locations.

Automated Backup Copy Workflows

Policy-based data protection allows you to reduce manual work by automating backup copy. Set up policies to copy backups based on specific criteria. New backups that fit the selected criteria are automatically copied. Use Job Chaining to create workflows and avoid retention gaps by linking backup copies to start when a backup is completed.

Backup Copies Offsite and to Cloud

By tiering your backups, you save costs on long-term data storage and avoid a single point of failure by applying the 3-2-1 backup rule. NAKIVO’s solution enables you to store backup copies:

locally on the same site as the production machines for quick access in case of data loss
offsite, including tape, NAS and another detachable storage
in the cloud, like Amazon S3, Wasabi, Backblaze B2 and Azure Blob or other public and private S3-compatible platforms
in federated repositories to seamlessly scale out the capacity of backup storage.
