Agentless VM backup to both on-prem and Azure storage for onsite or cloud recoveries.
UltraBac
launched its Windows backup solution in 1995 which has continuously evolved to
meet the physical, virtual and cloud BDR needs of customers ranging from the
SMB to Enterprise. UltraBac's Hybrid Hyper-V Backup Solution uses
Microsoft's API's to backup both powered on & off VMs from protected virtual
hosts to any on-premise disk based storage device and then copies the backup to
Azure for redundant (and identical) offsite backup. UltraBac’s Hyper-V solution is “agentless”
and requires no software to be installed in individual VMs.
Backups
also can use UltraBac’s built-in compression to save on average another 30% of
storage space along with AES-256 military grade encryption. Users can set
up a schedule of full and incremental backups to suit their specific
requirements. Incremental backups are available in Windows 2016 and above
and use Microsoft’s built-in changed block tracking (CBT) feature. Failed incremental backups are self-healing
with the next successful backup correctly creating a point-in-time recovery
snapshot with all the changed blocks since the last successful backup.
Backups can be
scheduled at any required frequency with no limit to the number of incremental
backups between full backups.
With the cloud copy
feature enabled, and the local backup completed, disks are unfrozen and all system
resources released. After completion UltraBac then copies the backup to
low cost Azure storage for duplicate (and identical) off-site storage.
To implement
UltraBac’s Hyper-V cloud copy feature all that’s required is to check a setup
box, enter your Azure credentials, and schedule backups to run. UltraBac can be downloaded, installed, setup,
and performing its first backup in as little as 30 minutes.
To restore a file,
folder or disk an Admin would access UltraBac's UI and mount the backup from
either local or Azure storage. Once mounted any file, folder or disk can
be restored. To restore an entire machine as a VHDX the admin can select to
restore from any point-in-time backup.
With UltraBac, the
only difference between an on-premise and Azure based file/folder/partition
restore or recovering an entire machine is speed.
