Databarracks Launches Arxcis v 8.0

The latest edition of the Asigra online backup software provided by London-based Databarracks Ltd. boasts new archiving features and innovations to follow the latest backup trends and requirements, allowing faster recovery times.

Taking the current trend of virtualisation in stride, the newest edition of Arxcis features agentless backup and recovery of VMware ESXi in addition to the previous capabilities which just reached ESX. The benefit of this advancement is that virtual machines can be protected, and because the process is agentless, there is no pre-requisite software necessary to operate. In addition, the replication function of the software now is ‘application aware’ and will run appropriately as per the needs of the specific application. Further, grid technology will allow multiple backup applications to share the same backup server, which will increase server utilisation, eliminate bottlenecks, and permit all clients to have access until the backup is completed. Lastly, Windows Vista Ultimate and Enterprise Editions are now s upported.

“We have been hard at work to ensure our environment and systems are integrated into the new software and are set for the release on 26 July 2008. The new system will allow users to experience the highest level of security and utility available in online backup today,” says Oscar Arean, Technical Support Manager at Databarracks

During Databarracks’ 3 year partnership with Asigra, the award-winning backup software behind the Arxcis solution, the company has made constant efforts towards having Asigra provide enhancements in each upgraded version which better cater to client’s needs.
