Backup

Secure enterprise class offsite backup for critical data.

Cloud Backup delivers next generation intelligent data backup and recovery to protect an organisations mission critical data in one simple unified solution.

As organisations battle to protect ever growing data environments in ever decreasing backup windows Cloud Backup allows customers to intelligently meet business objectives by backing up critical data and retaining it in a secure N+N infrastructure.

How does Cloud Backup differ from traditional backup models?

Traditional backup involves deploying multiple agents and storage targets within customer premises. Traditionally organisations will flat backup both physical and virtual servers this involves storing multiple copies of the target data on the backup platform. The backup window is often restricted by the volume of data that has to be processed often this means difficult choices have to be made. Further complexity is added when remote offices and remote users require their critical systems to be backed up or data retention requirements mean historic data has to be copied to tape.

Cloud Backup is an intelligent solution for both physical and virtual environments with application aware agents deployed to each server/desktop/laptop regardless of location backing up centrally to secure N+N Datacentres. The key difference is that each unique item of data is only backed up once this means that during the backup window only changes are stored. Each item of data that is backed up is written to an array of N+N storage servers that ensure fault tolerance, reliability and performance.

Key Benefits

• Storage is reduced
• Bandwidth is reduced
• More can be done in the backup window

This approach allows for both granular and full backups and restores of critical data whether virtual or physical with the ability to restore either individual files or entire systems. Cloud Backup never backs up the same data twice allowing a highly efficient and scalable solution to meet the requirements of protecting yesterdays, today's and tomorrow's data.
