Acronis Revolutionises Data Protection with
AnyDataTechnology; Introduces Best-in-Class Products Without the
Complexity and Overhead of Legacy Platforms
London, UK - February 25, 2014 - TodayAcronis® announced the launch of a new
generation of data protection for virtual, physical and cloud
environments. Powered by AnyData technology, Acronis' new
generation data protection offers easy, complete and safe backup,
disaster recovery and secure access for all data, across every
environment, in any location.
"Customers are grappling with unabated data growth and the
increasing adoption of virtualization, cloud and mobile platforms"
said Robert Amatruda, research director, data protection and
recovery at IDC. "To protect their
critical data for a wide array of applications in physical, virtual
or cloud environments, businesses need to consider a flexible yet
comprehensive solution, such as Acronis with AnyData
Technology."
Acronis AnyData technology, developed over 10 years, enables
cost-effective products which seamlessly integrate and allow a
company's data protection capabilities to grow along with the
company. Before Acronis AnyData technology, organisations using
old generation data protection had to choose between affordable but
incomplete point products, and feature-rich but highly complex and
expensive platforms. Now, Acronis offers a new approach that
delivers the best of both worlds - best-in-class individual
products that seamlessly and easily work together to offer complete
data protection.
The user interface and management features for products based on
AnyData technology provide great flexibility while reducing
training costs and eliminating compatibility issues. They offer
twice the performance using 50% of the resources for workloads of
any type, in any virtual or physical environment, at any location
across clouds, data centers or remote offices. Even if a company's
storage environment might grow and become more complex, its data
protection strategy remains simple and comprehensive.
"Data protection is more important today than ever before. Since
losing business critical data is not an option, organisations are
acutely aware of the need to protect their data," said Serg Bell, CEO
of Acronis. "Our mission is to be the leading provider of easy,
complete and safe new generation data protection solutions. With
AnyData technology and our updated suite of products, we have
redefined best-in-class for backup, disaster recovery, and secure
access."
More than 300 Acronis developers and the R&D team at Acronis
Labs created AnyData technology. This team invented a deep
portfolio of more than 50 patents, and has used its extensive
expertise in backup, virtualization and storage to deliver the
first easy-to-use and comprehensive data protection solution that
deserves the name Any by supporting:
· Any protection: data backup, bare metal restore,
migration, and system deployment
· Any device: servers and workstations
· Any server: virtual and physical
· Any OS environment: Windows® and Linux®
· Any file system: NTFS, ReFS, FAT16/32, Ext2/3/4,
ReiserFS3, XFS, JFS and more
· Any virtual environment: VMware®, Hyper-V®,
XenServer®, Red Hat® Enterprise Virtualization, Parallels, and
others
· Any migration: V2V, V2P, P2V, P2P
· Any application: Exchange, SQL Server®, SharePoint®,
and Active Directory®
· Any location: cloud, on-premise, and remote
offices
Additionally, Acronis repackaged its offerings to reduce
complexity and add more value for customers. Popular features such
as universal restore, de-duplication, and granular application
support are now part of the base products.
"A significant amount of time was invested by our technical team
to identify a single source backup and disaster recovery solution,
which we were confident could fulfill both our current and future
requirements. Acronis has the features to support all aspect of
our business - our virtual server environment, cloud-based options
for remote locations and deduplication services to reduce overall
storage consumption. With Acronis, we have been able to greatly
enhanced our disaster recovery procedures." Michael Moore, Vice
President, EFC Systems,
Inc.
"Acronis' new data protection product suite with AnyData
technology is a big step forward," Jason Schuerhoff, Sublime Solution, VP of Sales.
"The combination of ease of use, value and advanced features for
virtual, physical and cloud environments is exactly what our
customers want."
AnyData technology uniquely and efficiently captures, stores,
recovers and accesses data across workload types, combined with a
breakthrough approach for simplifying and unifying management.
Core technologies include:
· Disk and VM image capture - Efficiently captures all
data giving users the choice of full, incremental or differential
backup.
· Active Recovery -Tracks operating system I/O requests
and restores blocks when the OS needs them, continuing to restore
other blocks in the background. This allows booting a machine and
starting applications long before a restore is complete.
· Unified Back-up Format - High efficiency algorithms
reduce storage, IO and CPU requirement and enable unified, fast,
easy and granular access to multiple versions of files,
applications and systems across all workloads.
· Single-pass block-level data management - Eliminates
the need for multiple agents and dramatically increases speed and
efficiency.
Together, these technologies create a lean architecture in which
individual affordable products snap together to create one unified
data protection solution. This allows organisations to only buy
what they need - without the unnecessary complexity and upfront
investment of a platform.
