With over a decade of experience, Catalogic DPX supports VMware backup or deployment as a VMware VM, offering both VMware Agentless Data Protection (VADP) and Storage Snapshots for low-impact backups and instant restores.
Challenges of VMware Data Protection
1. Complexity and Overhead of Agent-Based Backups:
Traditional backup solutions require agents to be installed on each virtual machine, leading to increased complexity, higher management overhead, and potential performance degradation.
2. Slow Recovery Times and Operational Downtime:
Recovering data can be slow, impacting business operations with prolonged downtime. Quick recovery is essential for minimizing operational impact and ensuring business continuity.
3. Diverse Environment Protection:
Organizations often operate within hybrid environments, including physical servers and virtual machines. Providing effective data protection across these varied environments presents a significant challenge.
4. Efficiency in Data Protection:
Ensuring data protection processes are both time and resource-efficient is crucial. Traditional methods may not offer the required efficiency, especially in dynamic or large-scale environments.
5. Comprehensive VMware Environment Protection :
VMware environments require reliable and efficient backup solutions that can handle the complexities of virtualization. Finding a solution with proven expertise and comprehensive coverage is critical to safeguard against data loss.
Key Features for VMware Protection
Agentless VMware Backup
Catalogic DPX simplifies VMware backup through agentless data protection, eliminating the need for installing and maintaining backup agents on each VM. Backups are managed through VMware vCenter and the Catalogic DPX virtualization proxy server, which handles VMware snapshot processing and communicates with the storage destination and master server. This approach supports auto-discovery and protection of new and modified VMs, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
Instant Recovery Options
