StoneFly Backup & Disaster Recovery Appliances

CBT reduces backup time, and bandwidth consumption, for cloud backups, by tracking and backing up block level changes in the enterprise data. Conventional backups require full file or data backups and are thus more time consuming and costly.

Configure full, incremental, or differential backups and use the enterprise backup solution in a way that fits your organization and requirements. And verify each backup with automatic backup integrity verification.

Agent-less backups enable users to backup Microsoft Exchange, MySQL, SharePoint, and Active Directory servers without installing dedicated agents for each server. This simplifies the management and enhances the cost effectiveness of the backup and disaster recovery solution.

Manage all your physical and virtual systems with a single centralized backup management console and easy-to-use web GUI.

Transportable storage comprises of enterprise SAS or SSDs configured to store replicas of mission-critical data. In the event of malware or ransomware detection, this storage automatically disconnects and protects the data inside it from data loss and data corruption.

 Integrated Blockchain technology enables users to ensure credibility for their backed up data. Blockchain backups can help with regulatory requirements and to build trust between departments, teams, or organizations / businesses. 

Leverage built-in cloud connect technology and backup to Azure, AWS, StoneFly private cloud, or any other S3 cloud of your choice. Create NAS volumes in the cloud and configure them as backup repositories with the pre-installed StoneFly SCVM™ software defined solution.

Configure automated delta-based snapshots and create backup images. Backup images can be used to recover to a certain system state and restore lost or corrupted data. DR365 also enables users to store these backup images on offsite iSCSI storage media and cloud storage tiers.

Configure real-time multi-site/multi-appliance replication (campus mirroring) of iSCSI volumes and nodes and failover in the event of primary system failure and failback when the system’s repaired. Or leverage asynchronous replication (optional) to replicate (One-to-Many & Many-to-One) data to secondary and offsite backup appliances. 

DR365 is a hyperconverged backup solution. It enables users to restore backups of physical machines as a VM directly on the backup and disaster recovery appliance for instant recovery and reduced RTOs and RPOs.

DR365 delivers a number of restore options. Users can restore their backups to the same hardware, dissimilar hardware, or a different hypervisor. The DR365 supports restore choices of Physical-to-Physical (P2P), Physical-to-Virtual (P2V), Virtual-to-Virtual (V2V), and Virtual-to-Physical (V2P). 

Instead of recovering the complete data volume each time, DR365 enables users to recover specific files and folders with granular recovery. This reduces the time taken to recover data, the cost of data recovery, and optimizes bandwidth consumption (when using cloud connect backups). 

Recover remote sites and systems by accessing bootable media and restoring bare-metal servers remotely over Wide Area Network (WAN). Users can also automate the recovery process by customizing bootable media with scripting. 

Reduce copies of backup files by leveraging block-level deduplication. Deduplication keeps the original copy and replaces other copies with a hash redirecting towards the original data. This optimizes storage consumption and frees-up space for backup data.

Instead of fat provisioning (or thick provisioning) in anticipation of backup data growth, leverage thin provisioning and repurpose unused storage space for backup data; thus enhancing storage space usage. 

The DR365 supports hybrid population of storage drives: combinations of enterprise SAS and SSDs. The pre-installed SCVM™ allows for easier management and data transfers between storage tiers for effective data management and storage space utilization. 

In combination with software-level data encryption, DR365 also allows users to configure hardware-based volume encryptions by dedicated processors; hence adding another layer of protection for mission-critical enterprise data. 

Maintain full control of your backups, backup images, and cloud-based backed up data with features like volume access control and dynamic volume management.  

Configure SSDs / flash drives as front-end cache and enhance data accessibility, reduce backup time, and recover mission-critical workloads faster thus ensuring business continuity for your IT environments.
