Acronis Cyber Cloud V.8.0 Introducing Enterprise Capabilities for Service Providers

Enables service providers to support enterprise deployments, protect complex infrastructures, and sophisticated workloads.

Acronis International GmbH announced the rollout of 8.0, a new version of its Cyber Cloud, its renowned cyber protection platform for service providers.

Acronis Cyber Cloud Scheme

More than 40 major capabilities are being rolled out now and will be available in all twelve data centers worldwide in early November, ensuring service providers worldwide are optimally positioned to grow. Most notably, features previously available only in the company’s on-premises data protection solution (Cyber Backup Advanced edition) will equip service providers to deliver modern cyber protection no matter how large, complex, or sophisticated their customer’s infrastructures and workloads.

Anticipated capabilities include:

  • Group-management operations, which boost service delivery and further lower administrative overhead

  • Several DR service features, which enrich sales capabilities with support for a simplified customer onboarding and PoC stage

  • Enhanced licensing and feature management, for an easier upsell of Advanced and DR features

Serguei ‘SB’ Beloussov, founder and CEO, stated: “Traditional data protection is not enough for any business to stay competitive and grow – including service providers and the many small to enterprise-size customers that rely on them. With Acronis Cyber Cloud 8.0, we’re making managing cyber protection easier, more efficient, and even more secure for all environments and workloads, so there’s no room for error.

Scalable group management of devices and backup plans offers a boost to the company’s Cyber Cloud’s service Cyber Backup Cloud by ensuring service providers can serve business customers with larger infrastructures.

Partners will gain support for application-aware Oracle Database and SAP HANA backup and recovery, as well as a cluster-aware backup of SQL Server and Exchange Server.

Partners also can look forward to approximately 25 other additions, including:

  • Agent-less, application-aware VM backup on Hyper-V to save time deploying the agent

  • Automatic backup archives notarization for independent validation that specific files are unchanged

  • Start-up Recovery Manager to restore machines in minutes, even if the OS does not load, without needing separate rescue media or a network connection.

The company’s DR Cloud will also see enhancements to its security, compliance, and service delivery tools. A few highlights include the ability to use encrypted backups to perform failover, automated DR operations using securely stored passwords, and DR for multiple client networks.

Given the ever-evolving nature of today’s cyber threats, the company is also enhancing data authenticity features. Improvements in the firm’s Notary Cloud service will allow service providers to enable data verification via a new public webpage – eliminating the need to use the Notary Cloud user-interface to verify files.

Together these planned enhancements underscore the company’ drive to deliver complete cyber protection for partners and customers alike – ensuring the safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security of data (also known as the ‘Five Vectors of Cyber Protection’, or the acronym SAPAS). With its focus on delivering easy, efficient, and secure cyber protection solutions, the firm is positioned to help service providers and their customers overcome evolving IT complexity, increasing security challenges, and the rising costs associated with those trends.

Cyber Protection revolution
The announcement of Cyber Cloud 8.0 comes at the conclusion of the inaugural Acronis Global Cyber Summit, which featured the largest gathering of resellers, service providers, enterprise IT professionals and software developers who convened to network, learn, and share knowledge about the future of cyber protection. At the Summit, the company announced several cyber protection solutions – Cyber Protect, Cyber Platform, and Cyber Infrastructure – to solve modern data protection and cybersecurity challenges. Each of these solutions provides secure cyber protection due to the integration at the business, user interface, management, product, and technology levels. As a result, customers get better protection, higher availability of systems, and lower overhead to support the solution than other of non-integrated solutions.
