Asigra Hybrid Cloud Backup
Asigra™ Televaulting™ is an award winning agentless, multi-site and multi-environment backup and recovery software that allows enterprises to back up their critical data to an off-site location using a disk-based WAN-optimized architecture. Asigra’s unique agentless architecture does not require agents/clients to be installed on target machines.
Asigra Televaulting provides grid-based performance and capacity scaling for virtually unlimited data growth, allowing the software to support backup loads from a few hundred GB to multiple TBs. The Televaulting solution also encrypts your data using AES/256 encryption while on the fly and at rest on the storage infrastructure using a your own private encryption key.
The Asigra Enterprise License plan lets you install the entire backup platform within your own WAN, thereby offering you the maximum level of control and security over your backup data. You can automatically backup data from Remote Offices and Branch Offices (ROBO) and send it across your wide area network to a centralized data center. You can backup data from your Head Office and send it to your Disaster Recovery site for safe storage. You can even do cross backup and backup your Singapore data to K.L. and K.L. data to Singapore for example.
Asigra Televaulting provides secure Continuous Data Protection with “Bare-metal” disaster recovery capability for file and database servers, desktops and laptops. It is a disk-based backup/restore and Disaster Recovery solution for Servers (Linux, Novell, Windows, System i (AS/400) etc.), desktops and laptops.
Key Features
Agentless: with no agents to install on the server being backed up, you don’t have to worry about software conflicts, rebooting the server for agent installation and patches, managing multiple agents, heavy CPU utilization, and a host of other issues associated with agents.
Incremental Backup: Asigra only backs up the individual data blocks that have changed since the last backup was done for both files and databases. This means backups are faster, more bandwidth efficient, and more storage efficient.
Global File Deduplication: By keeping a digital signature of the files that have already been backed up before, Asigra makes sure you don’t waste resources by backing up numerous copies of the same data.
Integrated Platform: Back up servers, desktops, and laptops to Asigra. Backup Windows, Linux, Novell, Macintosh, and System i (AS/400). Back up unstructured data such as files and structured data such as databases to Asigra. Back up SQL, Oracle, DB2, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Exchange, Notes, SAP, VMware, SharePoint, and more.
Strong Security: Asigra is currently the only backup solution to achieve U.S. Government FIPS certification of its AES 128/256 encryption algorithm. Only you hold the encryption key. No one else can read your data when on the fly or at rest.
Intelligent Retention: Asigra’s built-in retention features and archiving capabilities allow you to automatically move older and less volatile data to cheaper storage.
Hybrid Cloud Computing: Asigra’s unique architecture lets you back up data to your own centralized backup servers in your private cloud, or to a public cloud infrastructure. You can also take a hybrid approach and back up some data to a private cloud and others to a public cloud. You can also replicate your backup between private and public clouds.
When to Use
- When you need a proven highly reliable solution to backup data to an offsite location.
- When the security of your offsite backup is of paramount importance.
- When you need to backup both unstructured data (files) and structured data (databases).
- When you want a single platform to be able to backup a wide variety of hardware, operating systems, and applications.
- When you want to backup data from multiple remote offices to a single centralized location.
- When you are backing up virtual machines, and don’t want to install numerous agents in each virtual instance, which could adversely affect performance.
- When you have a large number of machines to backup, and don’t want to pay for agents or have the difficulty of deploying a large number of agents.
- When scalability to very large volumes of data (TB or PB) is important.
