Acronis to protect hub+ virtual environment

VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE

Global Production agency, hub+, has successfully installed Acronis vmProtect to backup and protect its entire virtual environment. In doing so, it has cut the time taken to recover a failed virtual machine by over a fifth.

  

Crispin Green, IT manager, hub+, explained, “We initially picked Veeam but realised quite quickly that when we needed to add extra hosts and VMs the price went up considerably due to the extra licenses. We decided to have another look at the options and after carrying out numerous tests, we opted for Acronis’ fast and simple to use, Acronis vmProtect 7.”

Acronis vmProtect has been engineered for VMware vSphere servers (v4.0, 4.1 or later) using ESX and ESXi hypervisors. It provides hub+ with a simple-to-deploy, easy-to-manage disaster recovery solution for agent-less back up and quick recovery of its VMware virtual environments. By deploying Acronis, hub+ can carry out scheduled daily incremental backups and weekly full system backups, which take a full image of the virtual machines, including the applications and operating system.

Bill Taylor-Mountford, President, Asia Pacific, Acronis, said, “Protecting VMware environments shouldn’t be complex or costly. Acronis vmProtect is a solution that speaks directly to VMware requirements, allowing businesses to accelerate their virtualisation adoption. IT managers need never question the status, availability or recovery time of their virtual data.”
