NetVault: FASTRecover v4.0

NetVault: FASTRecover (NVFR) provides real-time, disk-based data protection and lightning fast recovery for Exchange, SQL Server and Windows File Server applications and data. With the release of v4.0, NetVault: FASTRecover supports remote office/branch office (ROBO) disaster recovery scenarios by leveraging bandwidth-friendly, simultaneous local and remote protection (SLRP) technology. Replication of protected data sets between NetVault: FASTRecover Servers ensures a current, recovery-ready copy of production data at a remote site can be quickly restored on infrastructure at that site. This enables superior distributed application availability -- meeting aggressive recovery point and recovery time objectives for both local and remote sites.

NetVault: Backup Encryption Plugin v2.0

New Advanced Algorithm Support Added to Encryption Plugin v2.0. NetVault: Backup Encryption Plugin v2.0 now offers you more flexibility to meet compliance needs. Advanced AES-256 and CAST-256 encryption algorithm support provides the option for stronger encryption as necessitated by regulatory requirements.

NetVault: SmartDisk v1.01

NetVault: SmartDisk (NVSD) v1.01 adds internal performance improvements to the initial release. NetVault: SmartDisk’s disk-based backup and data deduplication option reduces storage costs with its powerful byte-level variable block-based software deduplication which packs up to 12 times more protected data into the same storage area. Hardware costs are reduced by using existing storage infrastructure instead of requiring specific drives or appliances. Integration with NetVault: Backup speeds deployment while simplified ease-of-use reduces the level of storage expertise required to perform deduplicated disk-based backups.

NetVault: SmartDisk’s post-process deduplication option can be scheduled outside the backup window to shrink backup windows with no additional impact on protected server resources. Integration with NetVault: Backup’s job-level deduplication and encryption enables users to separate deduplicated from non-deduplicated data while enabling primary copies to be deduplicated so encryption can be performed only on the secondary copy that is stored offsite.

Please note that NetVault: SmartDisk v1.0 is only compatible with NetVault: Backup v8.5, so you will need to upgrade to NVBU v8.5 to take advantage of NetVault: SmartDisk capabilities.

Security

NetVault: Backup Encryption Plugin v2.0 gives you more flexibility:

Ability to only encrypt secondary copies while primary backup remains unencrypted. This enables users to take advantage of disk-based backup to enable faster restores while the encrypted secondary copies are targeted to remote disk-based backup devices or physical tape libraries whose tapes are stored offsite for disaster recovery purposes.

Job level encryption increases flexibility by giving users control over exactly which data is encrypted and which data is not.

Expands encryption support to high availability environments by offering encryption support for:
