JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA – April 9, 2015 — /BackupReview.info/ — Yotta280, a full service Asigra deployment organization, announced the availability of the latest version of Asigra’s enterprise backup, disaster recovery and business continuity solution. The recent update of the Asigra technology, which recently won the TechTarget’s Product of the Year Award, offers a converged platform that delivers a single, comprehensive solution for all data located on physical servers, virtual machines, mobile endpoints and cloud applications.

Among the many new features of Asigra’s new release are: Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS) enablement featuring VMware vSphere replication, endpoint data loss prevention, open infrastructure support for FreeBSD on ZFS and CentOS, and integration with Linear Tape File System (LTFS) for low cost long term retention of backup data.

“Version 13 provides the ability to recover data where it lives, more efficiently and at a lower overall cost and complexity,” said David Farajun, CEO and Founder of Asigra. “Our converged data protection software is uniquely positioned to return organizations to productivity regardless of the environment, providing superior business continuity from the IT core to the edge.”

Managing a spectrum of data protection Recovery Time and Point Objectives, to ensure end-to-end data recovery can be extremely complicated and costly. Asigra — is a comprehensive end-to-end agentless data recovery solution that provides converged data protection for cloud-based disaster recovery and backup of physical, virtual, cloud, and mobile environments. The platform and device agnostic software solution is delivered by Yotta280 as a service or as software for the mid and enterprise markets in private or hybrid deployments.

“With Virtual Machine Replication in Asigra’s new release, we continue to meet our clients’ increased demands for faster RTOs by replicating a VM to one or more remote locations with the ability to have the replica up and running in minutes,” said Terry Fields, CEO, Yotta280. “As a result, Asigra enables us to deliver a premium DRaaS service with very fast RTOs.”

What’s New in Asigra v13:

  • Converged Data Protection–Enterprises struggle to meet the convergence of data protection needs in a way that minimizes complexity and is cost effective. Asigra version 13 addresses this need by including more integrated options for DR, backup/recovery, backup archiving and security.
  • Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service Enablement–Version 13 includes VMware vSphere replication to meet rigorous recovery time objectives (RTOs). The new capability allows for replication without backup to one or more warm, on or offsite replicas. Suitable for the most demanding RTOs, Asigra eliminates the need for 3rd party VM replication solutions or special skills to manage and maintain the alternate solutions. There is no additional charge to existing customers for this feature.
  • Optimized Support for Open Infrastructure–A rapidly evolving IT landscape provides enterprises with new opportunities, such as leveraging Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) or inexpensive new hardware if user infrastructure is flexible enough to allow it. Enterprises accustomed to using vendor specific infrastructure and storage struggle to keep infrastructure costs under control and do not have the budget to overhaul existing systems. To address this challenge, version 13 includes optimized support for open infrastructure choices like FreeBSD on ZFS and CentOS running on commodity hardware servers and storage.
  • Linear Tape File System (LTFS) Integration–Long term retention of data held for compliance purposes needs to be managed cost effectively. Compared to disk, tape is highly cost effective with as much as an 84% cost savings compared to disk-based storage over 9-10 years. Version 13 provides automated parking of old backup data to LTFS tape via the Asigra BLM Archiver to make it easy for aligning the cost of protection to the value of data.
  • Docker Container Backup/Recovery – Addressing the enormous popularity of Docker and the rapid deployment of applications on the open source platform, Asigra now provides the industry’s most comprehensive data recovery solution for application data in these environments, on-premise and in the cloud.
  • Office 365 Data Protection– Using Asigra, organizations can protect Microsoft Office 365 data at all times, automatically. The latest integration allows companies to recover data beyond documents and spreadsheets to include Exchange Online, SharePoint workspaces and OneDrive repositories.
  • Mobile Device Geo-Location and Remote Wipe – Data on mobile endpoints needs better protection as hundreds of thousands of mobile devices are lost or stolen each year. For enhanced mobile device data protection, version 13 includes integrated geo-location and remote wipe at no additional charge to help enterprises close the mobile endpoint security hole. The feature allows users to find the location of lost or stolen devices quickly from the Asigra DS-NOC with a convenient Google Maps interface and wipe data remotely if required.
  • Microsoft SCCM Integration – Allows IT administrators to easily and cost effectively deploy and configure Asigra client software across thousands of Windows mobile endpoints not connected to the LAN.
  • Full Chinese Localization – Enables easier administration for Chinese IT administrators and expands market opportunities for Asigra partners in the world’s 2ndlargest economy1.
