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 vSphere Backup Solution uses VMware’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 vSphere 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 can be performed in all versions of Windows and use VMware’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.
Using VMware’s APIs UltraBac is also able to perform full and incremental backups and restores of all none Windows VMs (e.g. Linux/UNIX).
To implement UltraBac’s vSphere 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 VMDK the admin can select to restore from any point-in-time backup. During a local restore if a file is found to be missing it will be automatically restored from Azure.
With UltraBac, the only difference between an on-premise and
Azure based file/folder/partition restore or recovering an entire machine is
speed.
