Storware Backup and Recovery 7.0 Released
We’re excited to unveil Storware Backup and Recovery 7.0, loaded with cutting-edge features and improvements tailored to address the growing demands of today’s enterprises. Let’s get started!
Storware 7.0 – what’s new?
→ Let’s start with expanded platform support, including Debian and Ubuntu. This addition expands user options by providing greater backup and recovery flexibility. Furthermore, the integration with Canonical OpenStack and Canonical KVM ensures seamless operations within this cloud infrastructure, catering to the growing demand for robust cloud solutions.
→ Support for backup sources has also been expanded to include VergeOS, providing the ultimate protection for the ultra-converged infrastructure of this VMware alternative.
→ What’s more, now you can backup Proxmox environments with CEPH storage, similar to functionality offered in OpenStack.
→ Virtualization support sees a significant boost with the inclusion of generic volume groups for OpenStack and Virtuozzo. This improvement enables users to perform consistent backups for multi-disk VMs.
→ In the upcoming release, we have also added support for a new backup location: Impossible Cloud Storage.
→ Deployment has never been easier, thanks to the introduction of an ISO-based installation. Users can now deploy their backup and recovery solutions with unprecedented simplicity, ensuring quick and hassle-free operations.
→ User experience takes a leap forward with the redesigned configuration wizard. Users can now navigate through configuration with ease, reducing the time and effort required to get the system up and running.
→ In addition to these key features, Storware Backup and Recovery 7.0 also includes a server framework update from Payara Micro to Quarkus, enhancing performance, scalability and advanced security. The system now automatically detects if the proper network storage is mounted in the backup destination path, adding an extra layer of convenience and security.
→ Additionally, the OS Agent now detects the type of operating system (Desktop/Server) for Windows and Linux, and includes an option to re-register the agent for better management.
→ As Storware evolves, certain features will be deprecated, including the “Keep last backup” flag, support for CentOS 7, SSH Transfer backup strategy for RHV, support for Xen and Oracle Virtualization Manager, and the old CLI version from the node
