All platforms and common databases supported

Offsite Vault supports all leading operating systems which can run Java2 Runtime Environment 1.4.1 or above, which are essentially all operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Mac, NetWare, NAS devices, etc. Besides,Offsite Vault comes with modules specially designed for backing up common database applications, including Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server, Lotus Notes/Domino, Oracle and MySQL. This allows you to back up all these databases professionally as recommended by their respective software vendor easily without requiring you to know how it works technically behind the scenes. If the databases or applications you are using in-house are not listed here, don’t worry. Our extensible and easily configurable command line tools enable you to add custom backup logics to basic backup operation through simple scripting.

Support of load-balancing and Windows Active Directory

The newly added load-balancing feature is ideal for larger enterprises that have a sizable number of client computers to back up concurrently, as multiple Offsite Backup Servers can be run at the same time to spread the loading of concurrent backup. This makes it possible for the backup system to achieve optimal resource utilization, throughput, and response time. Moreover, system reliability is greatly improved with added redundancy.

The support of Windows Active Directory (or LDAP) allows user backup accounts to be created automatically and backup quota to be shared by a group of users. Aided by Windows Active Directory, system administrators are able to customize the default backup setting for different users or user groups. It even allows client-side backup setting to be overridden by server setting at the system level, user level, and backup set level. This flexible and highly extensible architecture makes complex requirements on system and user administration an easy task for novice administrators.

Backup 500GB in one night

Our seed load and in-file delta technologies enable backup of a large volume of data to be completed in a very short period of time. The seed load feature allows backup of the large volume of data to a local hard drive. With our proprietary in-file delta technology, the original file is required to be backed up once only, i.e. in the first backup job. Subsequently, only the changes within the file made since the previous backup are necessary to be backed up.

For example, for a file that is as large as 500GB, you can simply seed load the full backup to a removable local hard drive and then deliver the seed loaded data in the removable hard drive to the backup server. Since only the changes made within the 500GB file, normally less than 1%, i.e. 5GB, of the original file size, are required to be backed up again, this amount of data can be backed up easily to the server via the Internet or Intranet in one night. As a result, instead of having to back up 500GB everyday, you just need to back up 5GB everyday to keep the file up-to-date on the backup server.
