The latest version of NAKIVO Backup & Replication takes a big leap from its predecessor in many ways. NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10 adds vSphere support. Not only that, but there are also many more features to discuss. The new version introduces backup to Wasabi, vSphere 7 support, full P2V recovery, and more. The product has complete relevance to the needs of the enterprises working in India. NAKIVO is a fast-growing software company with a special focus on protecting the virtual, physical, cloud, and SaaS environments. With NAKIVO Backup & Replication tools, businesses are empowered with protecting their entire IT infrastructure including Vmware, Hyper-V, and Nutanix AHV VMs, and Amazon EC2 instances to physical servers and workstations, Oracle databases, and Microsoft 365 application data.
The introduction of NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10 includes backup to Wasabi thus providing customers the power to leverage scalable cloud storage while retaining the option to store confidential data on local or off-site storage devices and tape media. Let us look into the new features of NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10. Those are as below:
Backup to Wasabi – Wasabi has emerged as a big disruptor to the cloud storage market by offering fast and reliable cloud object storage at one fifth the price of major competitors. In fact, with only a single, all-purpose storage tier and no fees for egress and API requests, Wasabi has made it quite easier for enterprises and businesses to forecast their storage costs as well as manage cloud-based data. Now, with the release of Backup to Wasabi, NAKIVO customers will be able to perform a range of full and granular recoveries tailored to their particular business requirements.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication permits customers to explore the full potential of Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage in the following manner:
- Send backups and backup copies of virtual and physical machines, Oracle databases, and Amazon EC2 instances to Wasabi.
- Reduce backup sizes with data reduction techniques and incremental backups to reduce storage costs.
- Eliminate downtime by instantly booting virtual machines directly from backups stored on Wasabi.
- Reduce individual files and application objects to source and custom locations directly from Wasabi backups.
- Automate data protection with policies, Job Chaining, and scheduled routine backup jobs.
“Wasabi is changing the way businesses approach cloud storage by combining affordability and simplicity with speed and reliability,” said Bruce Talley, CEO of NAKIVO Inc. “We are thrilled to partner with Wasabi and provide a data protection solution to allow businesses to maximize the advantages offered by Wasabi.”
“By combining Wasabi’s hot cloud storage with NAKIVO Backup & Replication, IT decision-makers are empowered with a better choice to simplify their data protection,” said Dave Friend, Wasabi’s CEO. “In partnership with NAKIVO, Wasabi enables more businesses to focus on growth, innovation, and the other critical business functions that data powers for them— not on its overpriced, complicated storage.”
vSphere 7 Support
NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10 supports backup, replication, and recovery for VMs running on vSphere 7, the latest version of VMware’s server virtualization platform. This leverages customers with the advanced functionality of vSphere 7 while ensuring their virtual infrastructure remains completely protected.
Full P2V Recovery
NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10 now recovers physical machine backups to VMware VMs. Full P2V Recovery creates virtual versions of physical servers and workstations that are ready for production environments. This helps in simplifying physical to virtual migrations and recovery in case of machine failure.
Linux Workstation Backups
NAKIVO customers can now perform application-aware, incremental backups of Linux workstations running Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop and Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop. NAKIVO Backup & Replication not only provides full recoveries of entire Linux workstations, it also offers granular recoveries to restore individual files and application objects from compressed and deduplicated backups.
Feature Availability
Backup to Wasabi is possible with perpetual or subscription licenses for Enterprise, Enterprise Plus, Enterprise Essentials, MSP Enterprise, and MSP Enterprise Plus editions. VMware Backup and Linux Workstation Backup are available with all editions of NAKIVO Backup & Replication while P2V Recovery is available with every edition except Basic. There is a 15-day Free Trial offer that gives access to every feature, including Backup to Wasabi, and it does not have any capacity restrictions.
“Our objective for NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10 is to give businesses even greater flexibility and control over the whole data protection process,” said Bruce Talley, CEO of NAKIVO Inc. “We deepened the pool of protected environments with support for vSphere 7 and Linux workstations, added a new cloud storage destination in Wasabi, and introduced P2V Recovery to shorten RTOs and simplify physical to virtual migrations.”
“With NAKIVO Backup & Replication, we were able to simplify disaster recovery, save costs, and utilize existing NAS servers. The licensing costs that were offered by NAKIVO turned out to be cheaper than the yearly maintenance costs of our previous product,” says Alejandro Canet, IT Project Coordinator at Save the Children Spain.
