SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland, 04 September 2015 - Aruba
S.p.A. (www.aruba.it), a leader
in web hosting, email, PEC services and domain registrations, and
Acronis (www.acronis.com), a global
leader in new generation data protection, today announced
availability of the new Aruba Cloud Bare Metal Backup
service, which allows businesses to perform complete backups of
their Private Cloud virtual machines through an easy-to-use
web-based control panel. The new service is based on the leading
Acronis full image backup technology.
The Aruba Cloud Bare Metal Backup service works in virtual
hypervisor environments, avoiding the need to install backup agents
on individual virtual machines that need to be protected. The Cloud
Bare Metal Backup service can be used in addition to the Aruba
Cloud Backup service, which together provide complete
protection of virtual machines, from the full image of the machine
to the application-level and file system-level.
The new backup service is based on Acronis technology and
is designed to make it easy for businesses to backup vApps and
virtual machines (VMs) through a simple web control panel that
enables complete control by the business user, including:
· Setting preferred schedules and persistence
· Scheduling when to restore both entire backed-up
machines and single files of that same machine
· Reconfiguring restored virtual machines, changing the
network, hostname, CPU and memory settings, or cloning it on a new
vApp.
The service is provided with the granularity of the single
Virtual Machine and includes 200GB of web space for each
machine. The backup technology integrates with the hypervisor of
the Private Cloud service and the protection mechanisms offered by
VMware, guaranteeing consistency and performance. It also includes
native integration with Microsoft's VSS (with VMware tools) to
ensure application-level consistency.
As part of the new service, Aruba offers Private Cloud customers
two different support options: phone support and support via a
Ticketing System.
"Cloud Bare Metal Backup is the ideal tool for customers
looking for total security," said Stefano Cecconi, CEO of
Aruba. "The service works at a hypervisor level capturing an
image of the virtual machine. Using both Cloud Bare Metal Backup
together with our Cloud Backup service based on Acronis offers
application-level visibility of what is running on the VM and
allows for total backup protection."
"Our new offering with Aruba provides a powerful multi-tier,
multi-tenant, self-service backup and disaster recovery (DR)
solution, enabling cloud owners to establish industry-leading
Backup as a Service (BaaS) for their tenants", said Mauro Papini,
Country Manager Acronis Italia.
