Vembu Technologies provides affordable
software and cloud services with an array of innovative, flexible and
reliable solutions for data protection, disaster recovery, file sharing
and CRM. And today, the company announced
the release of Vembu BDR v2.1.1, now packaged with two of the most frequently
requested features by their customers: Seed Backup Process and Download VMDK in direct ESXi bootable format.
Seed Backup Process:
This is an option that allows an organization to take its first data
backup to the cloud via disk transfer over Internet. Transferring a
sizable amount of data to cloud via Internet can take some time. Vembu
supports seeding backup server data through hard disk shipped to cloud
server with this release. This process of storing backup data online
requires less time with limited bandwidth.
With seeding option you can get your backup server data replicated to a
local disk and shipped to cloud to initiate a seed backup process. Once
this process has been accomplished, further incremental/additional full
backups will be automatically replicated from the backup server to the
cloud server.
The backup window scheduling feature helps manage cloud backup schedules.
Download VMDK in direct ESXi bootable format:
Vembu BDR v2.1.1 now supports downloading flat VMDK files. Flat VMDK
formats can be directly booted in ESXi servers without any additional
requirements. Previous versions of Vembu had thin VMDK downloads
available, which needed steps to be followed to make them work on ESXi
servers.
You can also download VHD files in addition for getting the backup data bootable in Hyper-V machines.
