Microlite BackupEDGE
BackupEDGE™ is a high performance, easy to use, fully integrated backup, restore and bare metal disaster recovery software product for Linux® and UNIX® operating systems.
- It manages the entire process of protecting critical data while shielding the user from the headaches involved in directly managing individual actions.
- It supports the industry’s widest variety of storage devices, including tape drives, Blu-ray Disc™ (BD-RE), DVD and CD writers, tape changers, libraries and autoloaders, and USB and SATA† flash drives, disk drives and cartridges.
- It supports backups to network-attached storage (NAS) devices, servers and appliances over the local network or Internet using the FTP, FTPS, SMB/CIFS, and NFS protocols†
- It fully supports Cloud (Internet) backups to the Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) web storage cloud and many other sites around the world who use the S3 storage API, such as Google Cloud Storage.
- BackupEDGE uses a modern, standards-based data format that allows for very long pathnames, very high compression ratios, ACLs (access control lists), multiple archive verification strategies and highly secure data encryption.
- Its modular architecture providing great flexibility in implementing and maintaining backup strategies.
- Its Scheduler is one of the most flexible in the industry, combing date, time, domain and backup type with Resource Quotas and Retention Times, to allow users to create simple or highly configurable storage strategies.
- BackupEDGE has an industry exclusive tri-mode management interface (called EDGEMENU). The interface runs on the graphical desktop or can be enabled as a web service and run remotely from a Java-equipped web browser. It may also be run in legacy character mode from the character console or from terminals and terminal emulators.
† Operating system dependent.
