Nakivo Inc. started an open beta program for Backup & Replication v6.2.

The beta version provides support for paid AWS EC2 instances, sold through AWS Marketplace.

Amazon has launched AWS Marketplace to help customers quickly find and start using software and services that they need, without having to spend time on building new servers in the cloud from scratch. AWS customers can launch pre-configured instances and pay only for what they use, by the hour or month, while AWS handles billing and payments.

Backup & Replication v6.2 beta provides a simple, reliable, and affordable way to backup such paid AWS EC2 instances. The backups can be stored in the same AWS region, copied to a different region, or even sent to an on-premises location. To facilitate data protection, backups can be done cross accounts, so even if primary account credentials get compromised, a copy of EC2 instance backups can be stored in AWS cloud under a different account.

Backup & Replication v6.2 beta performs a complete backup of EC2 instances and their data stored on EBS volumes. By default, it creates application-aware backups of Windows-based and Linux-based EC2 instances, and ensures that data of applications and databases is consistent and can be properly recovered.

To save storage space, te software automatically deduplicates instance backups at the block level, and saves only unique data to the backup repository. Furthermore, the data is automatically compressed to consume the least amount of disk space possible.

When it comes to recovery, Backup & Replication v6.2 beta provides a variety of options. OS files, Exchange objects (such as emails), and Microsoft Active Directory objects (such as users) can be instantly recovered directly from compressed and deduplicated EC2 instance backups. If an original EC2 instance was lost or damaged, the v6.2 Beta enables restoring the instance into the same region, a different region, or even cross accounts. More importantly, all recovery types can be done regardless of where the backup repository is located – in the same AWS region, in a different AWS region, or even in an on-premises location.

Backup & Replication v6.2 beta provides the ability to replicate paid EC2 instances. Instance replication creates and maintains identical copies of selected EC2 instances in the same AWS or in a different AWS region. The replicated EC2 instances remain in the powered off state so there’s no extra charge for the software or compute resources. Yet, if the production infrastructure is hit by a disaster, the EC2 instance replicas can be powered on for near-instant DR.

We are excited to invite VMware professionals and Amazon cloud users to try the new v6.2 Beta,” said Bruce Talley, CEO and co-founder, Nakivo. “Nakivo Backup & Replication v6.2 Beta further improves AWS cloud support and will enable our customers to protect and recover VMware and AWS cloud environments in a single pane of glass.

All beta program participants completing the program requirements will receive an Amazon gift card.

Beta download are available.
