First of all , I would like to welcome and Thank Nakivo Backup and Replication as one the premium Sponsor for VMwareArena. This post we are going to learn about new product features of Nakivo backup & Replication v6.1 beta. NAKIVO Backup & Replication is VMware-certified, purely agentless, can be installed on Linux and Windows, deployed as a pre-configured VMware Virtual Appliance and AWS Amazon Machine Image, as well as can be installed directly on Synology NAS to create a high-performance VM backup appliance. NAKIVO Backup & Replication has a simple and intuitive Web interface, supports live applications and databases, provides instant recovery of VMs, files, and application objects directly from compressed and de-duplicated backups, speeds up data transfer with network acceleration, and reduces data size with global deduplication and compression.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication v6 has been released with capability of supporting native backup and replication of AWS EC2 instances. Nakivo impressed most of the customers with easy web interface, data compression, De-duplication and network acceleration technologies to speed up the WAN backups . NAKIVO Backup & Replication started supporting VMware vSphere 6.0 within few weeks after the release. With the successful release of flagship product of Nakivo Backup & Replication v6, Nakivo released v6.1 beta with handfull of new features added in addition to v6. Nakivo backup & Replication v6.1 beta is planned to release shortly. Let’s take a look at What’s new with Nakivo Backup and Replication v6.1 Beta.
What’s new with Nakivo Backup & Replication v6.1 beta :
- Exchange 2016/2013 Instant Object Recovery: NAKIVO Backup & Replication v6.1 Beta enables browsing, searching, and recovering Microsoft Exchange 2016 and 2013 objects – such as emails – directly from compressed and deduplicated VMware VM backups, without the need to restore the entire VM first. This feature is purely agentless, works right out of the box, and does not require creating a special lab or running a special backup type.
- Exchange 2016/2013 Logs Truncation: Microsoft Exchange Server database transaction logs record all changes to an Exchange Server database. Over time, these log files accumulate and can consume all of the available disk space, if not periodically removed. NAKIVO Backup & Replication v6.1 Beta provides an option to truncate logs of Microsoft Exchange 2016 and 2013 after a successful backup.
- Hot Add: The new Hot Add feature enables writing VM data directly from/to the VM datastore, bypassing the network. NAKIVO Backup & Replication v6.1 Beta automatically uses Hot Add in order to offload production LAN from the data protection traffic and to increase the data transfer speed.
- Job Chaining: NAKIVO Backup & Replication v6.1 Beta extends the job scheduling functionality by introducing job chaining. With this feature, a job can finish its tasks and then trigger another job in a chain. This way, for example, it’s easy to set up a chain where a VM backup job saves data locally, and then triggers a Backup Copy job that sends backup copies to Amazon cloud.
