Bacula: New Enterprise Features in Trial Software for Backup and Recovery Professionals

Bacula Systems SA announced updates to its trial version of its Enterprise Edition, a backup and recovery solution for medium and large enterprises.

Potential customers wishing to test Enterprise Edition can now experience its latest features, available via a free trial process.

With reaching features for modern data centers, hosting centers and MSPs, the latest trial software release includes comprehensive documentation with specially written test scenarios and use cases, providing users with a powerful enterprise-grade backup and restore solutions.

“This trial experience is effectively the same as Bacula Enterprise Edition’s latest version 10 software, and gives potential customers a real taste of the high levels of control and advanced customization enjoyed by our customers in data centers and large IT departments. It also offers potential customers the opportunity to experience our high-quality support services, which are acknowledged by our customers to be the very best in the industry,” said Frank Barker, CEO, Bacula.

One of the use case scenarios covered in the Trial Guide documentation covers that of backing up Linux and Windows clients using Bacula’s Amazon S3 Cloud module. This module also includes the ability to manage network bandwidth when transferring backup data to the cloud and ensures that backing up to the cloud does not monopolize a network. Concurrent asynchronous upload and download is also available, together with multiple bucket support in a single storage daemon.

Enterprise Edition 10 adds native integration of Xen and Proxmox to its existing Hyper V, KVM and VMware capabilities, making it a broad compatible, scalable backup solution for virtual environments and endpoints.

“Bacula Systems does not charge by data volume and comprises of especially modular components, so is especially scalable and cost-efficient for large IT departments,” said Aristide Caraccio, VP sales and marketing, Bacula. “Because of Bacula’s other MSP-friendly features, such as REST API and Global Endpoint Deduplication, many hosting, IaaS and MSP businesses are now switching to Bacula. They also benefit from native Azure integration and BCloud Service, a user-oriented front-end designed to safely delegate simple and restricted backup administrator tasks to an end user, used by large enterprises and managed services providers. These MSPs gain significant functionality benefits when changing from their legacy backup solution to Bacula, as well as drastically reducing their costs.”
