What the Appliance Does
Protected systems
See every machine that backs up to the appliance, with volumes and security status. Start or pause an upload, or queue an incremental or full backup.
Policies and retention
Keep restore points with simple retention or grandfather-father-son (GFS) retention.
Point-in-time recovery
Browse files, export a disk image, or boot a restore point as a virtual machine.
Replication
Copy backups to another appliance, to offsite storage, or on a USB drive.
Alerts and reports
Alert rules with webhooks, plus reports for backup summary, storage and SLA.
Access control
Sign in with 2FA. Roles for admin, operator and viewer.
What It Backs Up
Agents send machines and files. The appliance also pulls from other sources.
Databases
MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis and SQLite, plus SQL Server and Oracle.
Containers
Docker, Swarm and Kubernetes clusters.
Network devices
SSH, Telnet and TFTP config backup with diffs.
