Linux Workstation Backup with the NAKIVO Solution

Incremental Backups

The NAKIVO solution uses a proprietary change tracking technology to copy only change data blocks to the backup repository after the initial full backup. Enable App-Aware mode to ensure the consistency of application data.

Effortless Full Machine Recovery

Restore Linux workstations as VMware VMs using the P2V Recovery feature in NAKIVO Backup & Replication. Perform near-instant physical to virtual migrations for Linux desktops and laptops. Use Bare Metal Recovery to restore machines to identical hardware without the need for reinstalling the OS.

Immutable Storage and Malware Protection

Ensure you have clean backups to recover from after a ransomware attack with immutable storage. Use Linux-based immutable local folders to store your backups or send data to immutable repositories in Amazon S3, Wasabi, Backblaze B2 and Azure Blob. Additionally, scan backups for malware before recovering data to source or new machines to ensure streamlined and secure restores.

Automated Data Protection

Schedule routine backups to run automatically on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Create a custom schedule and monitor all your tasks from the Calendar dashboard.

Seamless Storage Tiering

Send backups and backup copies of Linux Ubuntu to offsite storage, a public cloud, or tape. Automate the tiering process with Job Chaining.

File and Object Recovery

NAKIVO Backup & Replication offers Instant File Recovery and Universal Object Recovery. Restore individual files and objects directly from compressed and deduplicated backups.

Advanced Bandwidth Throttling

Offload your production network when performing Linux workstation backups. Advanced Bandwidth Throttling allows you to set a limit on bandwidth consumption when backing up during business hours.
