Nakivo Backup & Replication V4 Beta Software

NAKIVO Inc., a growing virtualization data protection company, the Backup & Replicationv4 Beta Program.

The company invites VMware professionals to try the new features of Backup & Replication v4 Beta: VM backup verification, Exchange objects recovery, and Exchange log truncation.

All Beta Program participants completing the Beta Program participation requirements will be rewarded with an Amazon gift card.

Beta features

Backup verification
With backup verification, the product checks VM backups at the block level and ensures that the data written to the backup repository is identical to the data that was read from the source VM, thus verifying that application objects, files, and the entire VM can be recovered.

Instant Exchange Objects Recovery
Backup & Replication v4 Beta enables browsing, searching, and recovering MS Exchange objects – such as emails – directly from compressed and deduplicated VMware VM backups, without the need to restore the entire VM first. This feature is agentless, works out of the box, and does not require creating a special lab or run a special backup type (Exchange objects can be recovered even from existing NAKIVO backups created by previous versions of the product). In the v4 Beta, MS Exchange 2007 and 2010 versions are supported.

Exchange Log Truncation
Exchange Server database transaction logs record all changes to an Exchange Server database. Over time, these log files accumulate and can consume all of the available disk space, if not periodically removed. Backup & Replication v4 Beta provides the option to truncate Exchange Server logs after a successful backup. This feature is also purely agentless and works right out of the box.
