NAKIVO with QNAP NAS
Everything You Need for Data Protection in One Place.
Create a High-Performance Backup Appliance
Combine NAKIVO Backup & Replication with QNAP NAS to create a multifunctional backup appliance that provides data backup, recovery, replication, compression and deduplication. You can manage your data protection activities for all your platforms from a single web interface.
Monitor and Automate Data Protection Tasks
Gain complete control of all data protection activities using the Overview dashboard for backup monitoring and the Calendar dashboard for scheduling. Automate workflows with the Policy-Based Data Protection feature that allows you to automatically back up workloads based on preset criteria. With Job Chaining, you can set jobs to run one after the other.
Maintain Ransomware Resilience
You can protect backups stored on QNAP NAS from deletion or encryption by ransomware by enabling immutability. Store backup copies in the cloud, on tape or on a detached storage device to ensure recoverability in case of a disaster or infection. You can also encrypt backup data or enable role-based access control to prevent unauthorized access.
Improve Backup Performance
Incremental backups allow you to copy only the changed data blocks using native change tracking technologies to speed up the backup process and reduce storage space consumption. The NAKIVO solution can send backup data directly to NAS disks to avoid the limitations of SMB and NFS protocols. You can further optimize resource allocation and usage with Network Acceleration and Advanced Bandwidth Throttling. Apply compression and deduplication to reduce storage space consumption even further.
Use Different Recovery Options
Restore full machines directly from backups stored on QNAP NAS with the Flash VM Boot feature or with physical-to-virtual (P2V) recovery. You can also perform granular recovery to instantly restore individual files and application objects to their original or to custom locations.
Keep Backups in Multiple Storages
Store backups on QNAP NAS separately from the production environment. You can also keep backup copies offsite by sending them directly from NAS disks to remote storage or to cloud storages (like Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Wasabi or Azure Blob) and other S3-compatible platforms. Backups can also be stored on tape for long-term retention.
Create Custom Disaster Recovery Workflows
Create and automate custom disaster recovery (DR) sequences with the Site Recovery feature. Actions in a sequence can include, failover, failback, network mapping, custom scripts, VM shutdown, etc. Minimize data loss and downtime by instantly initiating a preset sequence in a disaster scenario. You can also test customized DR workflows without impacting your production environment.
