NAKIVO Releases v3.2 of NAKIVO Backup & Replication

NAKIVO releases v3.2 of NAKIVO Backup & Replication featuring vCloud Director Support, Network Acceleration, along with Support for RHEL and SLES Linux.

Campbell, CA, United States — July 15, 2013

NAKIVO Inc., #1 virtualization data protection software provider, has announced today the general availability of NAKIVO Backup & Replication v3.2 featuring vCloud Director support, network acceleration, support for RHEL and SLES Linux, improved backup management, and other performance and reliability improvements.

Answering the increasing need for a data protection solution in cloud environments, NAKIVO has added support for vCloud Director in v3.2. NAKIVO Backup & Replication can now back up and replicate vCloud Director vApp VMs, recover files from vApp VM backups, as well as recover full VMs back into vApps.

WAN and LAN links are often slow or have limited bandwidth, driving the need to optimize network utilization with technology that can reduce network traffic. With NAKIVO Backup & Replication, network acceleration is achieved with enhanced compression and traffic reduction techniques which enable 2X faster backup and replication, as well as recovery of VMs and files from local and offsite backups.

In addition to supporting the latest Windows Server and Ubuntu Linux editions, NAKIVO Backup & Replication v3.2 now supports Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® (RHEL) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES). Now shops with only RHEL and SLES can install and operate NAKIVO Backup & Replication without the need to deploy and maintain a new OS type.

In addition to the new features, NAKIVO Backup & Replication v3.2 offers a complete data protection feature set for virtualized environments, including local and offsite VM backup and replication, support for live applications & databases (Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL, Oracle, etc.), file level recovery from local and offsite backups, deduplication, encryption, and advanced reporting.

V3.2 BETA TEST FEEDBACK

“NAKIVO Backup & Replication is very fast. I am a little bit astonished to see how much faster the v3.2 Beta is than the other VM backup products that we are using. I like the small memory requirements of the NAKIVO virtual appliance along with the very easy and clear user interface,” said Alain Richard of Equation.

“NAKIVO Backup & Replication v3.2 Beta has passed our functional and stress testing with unprecedented results. NAKIVO Backup & Replication has been easy to use and shown solid performance, while the support team has been very responsive and informative. Overall, I am very satisfied with NAKIVO,” said Francesco Speciale of LS Advanced Software.

“We will recommend NAKIVO Backup & Replication to our customers nearly every time, because the functionality and the pricing are really good,’ said Ronald Janowsky of Ingenierbuero Schroeer.

PRICING & AVAILABILITY

“We are excited by all the positive feedback and great suggestions from our cloud service provider and SMB testers of our v3.2 Beta release,” said Bruce Talley, CEO and Co-founder of NAKIVO. “Our growth is accelerating as more VMware professionals discover the advanced functionality, ease of use, and superior performance of NAKIVO Backup & Replication.”
