    How DR365H Delivers End-to-End Backup & Disaster Recovery​

    The StoneFly DR365H is a fully integrated, turnkey backup and disaster recovery solution that combines StoneFly’s enterprise-grade storage virtualization with HYCU’s agentless, application-aware data protection—all hosted directly on the DR365H appliance. With HYCU running natively on the system, there’s zero latency between the data protection engine and the storage layer, enabling faster backups, instant recovery, and streamlined operations.​

    Discovery & Protection

    HYCU auto-detects workloads across VMware, Nutanix, physical servers, and cloud platforms, delivering agentless, application-consistent backups with minimal impact on production.

    Cloud Replication (Optional)

    For off-site redundancy, data can be seamlessly tiered or replicated to Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, or StoneFly’s cloud platform.

    On-Appliance Backup Storage

    Backup data is written directly to the high-speed, redundant storage within the DR365H—eliminating external transfer bottlenecks and accelerating performance.

    Instant Recovery

    In the event of failure, you can spin up virtual machines directly on the DR365H for rapid recovery and business continuity without needing to wait for a restore.

    Built-in Multi-Layered Ransomware Protection

    At the core of DR365H is StoneFly’s patented air-gapped and immutable storage vault, which sets this solution apart:

    Air-Gapped vaults can be configured either logically (automated isolation) or physically (isolated hardware), preventing ransomware or unauthorized access from reaching backup copies.
    All air-gapped data is also immutable, meaning it cannot be altered, encrypted, or deleted—ensuring the integrity and recoverability of your backups.
    This combination of agentless backups, application awareness, immutability, and air-gapping delivers unmatched resilience against ransomware and insider threats.

    The DR365H is more than a backup appliance—it’s a fully integrated disaster recovery platform that unifies backup, storage, security, and rapid restore in a single solution. From backup to spin-up, it’s built for speed, simplicity, and peace of mind.

    DR365H Key Features:

    Enterprise Data Protection & Storage Capabilities

    Air-Gapped and Immutable Backups

    Patented StoneFly air-gapped vault technology ensures backup data is isolated—physically or logically—and immutable, blocking unauthorized access and ransomware encryption attempts.

    Immutable Storage

    Backed-up volumes and files are locked from changes for defined retention periods, ensuring compliance and protection from tampering or deletion.

    Immutable Snapshots

    Schedule point-in-time snapshots that cannot be altered or deleted until expiration, providing reliable recovery rollback options.

    Volume Deletion Protection

    Prevents accidental or malicious deletion of active or archived volumes with enforced policy-based controls.

    Threat Detection and Response

    Integrated anomaly detection alerts admins to suspicious behaviors and supports automated remediation workflows for fast containment and recovery.

    Secure Connect Fabric

    Enables agentless, encrypted backup and recovery for remote and branch office workloads via a secure, policy-driven overlay network.

    Hardware-Based Encryption

    AES 256-bit encryption at rest and SSL/TLS in transit ensures compliance-grade data security without impacting system performance.

    Deduplication

    Block-level, inline and post-process deduplication reduces backup storage footprint and optimizes WAN/Cloud bandwidth usage.

    Thin Provisioning

    Efficiently allocates storage on-demand to reduce unused capacity and improve overall resource utilization.

    Direct VM Spin Up

    Instantly boot VMs on the DR365H appliance for near-zero RTO and seamless disaster recovery—no need to wait for full restores.
