Built-in Veeam Cloud Connect Backup
The DR365V has built-in cloud connect backup with the ability to replicate Virtual Machines (VMs), iSCSI, and NAS volumes directly on Azure, AWS, StoneFly private cloud, and S3 compatible clouds.
Users can choose to setup synchronous replication on private clouds or asynchronous replication to public clouds for additional redundancy, high availability, and instant recovery.
Reduce the time to recovery, enhance business continuity, and offload backup data with the built-in cloud connect backup feature.
Replicate to Offsite Backup Appliance Clusters or the Cloud
DR365V enables users to synchronously replicate to secondary DR365V mirror appliances or asynchronously replicate to offsite or cloud backup tiers.
The Veeam backup and replication appliance enables users to protect iSCSI, NAS, and VMs.
Users can choose to recover by spinning up VMs directly in public or private clouds, or directly on the DR365V backup appliance.
NAS Backup Support (No Agents Needed)
No need to install Veeam agents on NAS systems for backup!
Now you can add NAS devices directly through the Veeam console and configure backups for NFS (Linux) and CIFS/SMB (Windows) file servers. This enables you to save costly resources and protect important unstructured data in a hassle-free process. You can store these NAS backups on the DR365V appliance or provision blob or S3 storage in Azure or AWS respectively and store the backup files in your choice of cloud.
Data Integration
Make the most of your backup data
Conventionally, backup files consume storage space until they’re used for recovery; and that’s all they do. Now, you can fully use your backup data with the data integration API.
Data integration enables you to extract virtual disks, as iSCSI volumes, from any VM backup file. You can mount these iSCSI volumes on any target iSCSI client. This iSCSI client can be the DR365V appliance, StoneFly ISC SAN or Voyager cluster SAN appliances, or a SAN volume deployed in the cloud.
With the ability to extract virtual disks from backup file and mount them as iSCSI volumes, you can truly leverage your data. You can run resource-intensive applications and code on another iSCSI client which enables you to get the most out of your data without affecting your primary production environment.
Air Gapped Backup Repository
Detachable NAS Volumes
Configure detachable NAS volumes with StoneFly SCVM and store backup copies in a virtual NAS that can be turned on and off at user’s discretion. The ability to control when the virtual NAS comes on or is turned off really puts the user in control and makes it a great fit for sensitive and confidential data storage.
As the provisioned NAS volumes are detachable, users can effectively protect mission-critical backup copies by storing secondary or tertiary copies in the volumes. This way, even if the primary copies are compromised due to threats like ransomware, malware, human error, etc. there’s still a secondary copy that can be used to recover the data.
Air Gapped repositories add an additional layer of security for workloads that simply cannot be lost or compromised.
Backup Vault
Isolated Linux Based Virtual Appliance
The backup vault is a highly secure Linux based virtual appliance that runs on an isolated network. The virtual appliance is inaccessbile to all applications, services, and programs running on the main production network. The virtual appliance replicates, either in real-time or asynchronously (user-defined), the primary or source volume / backup repository. This creates two redundant volumes with the backup data.
In the event of a ransomware attack, malware, accidental or malicious deletion, etc. the backup vault provides an unhindered redundant copy that can be used to restore data. It’s best fit for users looking to have more than one copy to rely on in the event of a disaster.
Immutable / WORM Storage
Compliant & Secure Backup Repositories
Leverage the familiar Veeam console to provision highly secure and compliant WORM (Write-Once Read-Many) storage repositories for long term backup data storage.
DR365V enables users to provision local backup repositories on the backup and DR appliance and provision object storage repositories in public clouds like Azure, AWS, or in StoneFly private cloud. The object storage volumes can be configured as immutable or WORM storage repositories.
Users can configure the backup and DR solution to store backup data for shorter period of time on local repositories while backup copies are retained on the immutable object storage repositories for several months or years. The WORM storage repositories simplify compliance and ensure data protection of mission-critical backup files from threats such as ransomware attacks, virus infection, human error, malicious deletion, etc.
Threat Scan for Backup Data
Scan your Backup Data for Dormant Threats & Ensure Data Integrity with Ease!
StoneFly SCVM supports an advanced scanning feature that enables users to scan their backup data for dormant threats such as ransomware, virus, & malware. Several malicious applications have exhibited this pattern: they lie dormant on the production server to detect target repositories and after a few months, they not only attack the primary production environment but also target repositories and backup repositories.
This advanced feature enables users to detect such threats before they attack and enables them to take pre-emptive action based on frequent reports. To simplify the user experience, SCVM enables users to schedule these checks and generate reports that are sent to pre-defined emails.
With this advanced threat detection feature, users ensure the integirty of mission-critical backup data and effectively protect their environments from engineered threats.
Back up SAP Hana Data on our Veeam-Ready Backup & Replication Appliance
Back up entire SAP Hana server or workstation on the DR365V. The DR365V automatically converts backups to Virtual Machines (VMs) so that they can be instantly spin up and recovered without delay.
SAP Hana data is important and our backup solution makes sure that you regain access to it within 15 minutes of losing the server or workstation. With data services such as delta-based snapshots, replication, and volume encryption to make sure you have multiple ways to recover your data and ensuring business continuity and data availability.
By leveraging our bare-metal restore options, users can recover on similar or dissimilar hardware. The DR365V also facilitates VM spin up on a different hypervisor.
For instant recovery, users can also choose to spin up SAP Hana VMs directly on public clouds such as Azure, AWS, or to StoneFly private cloud or any other S3 compatible cloud.
