Physical Backup
Incremental Backups
Perform incremental backups to improve speed and free up storage space. The solution runs a full backup only once. For subsequent recovery points, only those data volumes that have been changed since the last backup cycle (increments) are copied.
Flexible Retention
Configure flexible recovery point rotation using the grandfather-father-son (GFS) scheme to optimize storage space and ensure no data loss. The scheme enables you to store recovery points more effectively, rotating them on a daily, monthly or yearly basis. Set retention for each workflow, specifying how many points to retain and for how long.
Secure Storage
Choose whether to store backups and their copies in a local repository, in a public or private cloud, on detachable NAS devices, deduplication appliances or on tape. Encrypt backup data at the source, when transferring over the network or encrypt the entire repository to ensure end-to-end security against unauthorized access and data breaches. For ransomware protection, send encrypted backup copies to immutable storage locally, in the cloud or in NEC HYDRAstor systems.
Streamlined Administration
The solution offers a variety of automation features to simplify administration. Easily schedule backups with a convenient Calendar dashboard and configure policies to automatically back up those physical machines that match your criteria. You can also set pre and post-actions to add custom scripts, enable notifications, integrate third-party tools or automatically truncate log files after a successful backup.
Reliable Backups
You can perform image-based volume-level backups in the app-aware mode to ensure that data is consistent and applications can run smoothly after recovery. For this, the solution instructs applications and databases to flush data to the disk before taking a snapshot.
Agile Recovery
With reliable and robust backups, you can ensure data recovery in any scenario:
- Full Physical-to-Virtual Recovery of Windows and Linux physical machines to fully functional VMware vSphere VMs
- Bare Metal Recovery to the same or identical hardware
- Instant recovery of individual files and application objects
- Cross-Platform Migration by exporting backups of physical machines in virtual disk formats
When it’s time to recover, run backup malware scans to ensure that the machines and objects recovered are infection-free.
Resource Optimization
Boost physical backup performance without adding an extra load on your network. Identify what’s causing bottlenecks, limit bandwidth consumption during working hours or enable Network Acceleration to speed up data transfer in busy LAN/WAN.
