Some backup strategies can create bottlenecks

Managing a modern IT environment often involves navigating the trade-offs of traditional backup methods.

  • Are repeated full backups consuming your storage budget?
  • Do long backup jobs slow down your network and impact production systems?
  • Is there concern that one missing file in a long incremental chain could make recovery impossible?

This can create a difficult choice between backup speed, storage costs, and restore reliability. Zmanda offers a different approach.

Complex restores

Zmanda Pro’s forever incremental backup approach

Zmanda Pro’s forever incremental architecture provides speed and savings without sacrificing the simplicity and reliability needed for confident recovery.

After one initial full backup, Zmanda only backs up data that has changed. This forever incremental approach eliminates the need for repeated, network-intensive full backups and avoids the complexity of restoring long, fragile backup chains.

Reduces storage costs

Forever incremental method, combined with client-side deduplication, significantly reduces your storage footprint and can lower your total cost of ownership (TCO).

Accelerates backup performance

By transferring only new or changed data blocks, backup windows become much shorter, freeing up critical network bandwidth.

Simplifies data recovery

Zmanda's incremental backup software architecture is designed for fast and reliable restores, removing the risk and manual effort associated with traditional incremental recovery.

FAQs

We use "forever incremental" technology. After your initial full backup, you never need another full unless you explicitly request one. Our incremental file backup software is synthetic, meaning we can reconstruct any point in time without walking through long chains of incremental files. This makes restores just as fast as from a full backup.

Typically 90-95% reduction compared to daily full backups. Combined with our deduplication and compression, most customers see their actual storage usage drop to just 5-10% of their source data size. For example, 100TB of data might only require 5-10TB of backup storage.

There is no chain problem with Zmanda Pro's incremental backup tool. Our synthetic full technology means each restore point is instantly accessible without reconstructing from multiple incremental files. Whether you're restoring from yesterday or last month, the recovery time is the same.

Yes. Our incremental engine works at the block level for disk images and file level for standard backups. We properly handle databases (Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL) using application-aware snapshots, ensuring consistency. Even for complex applications like Exchange or SharePoint, our incremental file backup software captures all changes accurately.

Our incremental backup tool is self-healing. If an incremental fails, the next run automatically captures all changes since the last successful backup. You never lose data or need to run a new full backup. Plus, our verification system alerts you immediately if any backup—full or incremental—has issues, so you can address problems before they impact your recovery capability.

Absolutely. Our incremental cloud backup feature is designed specifically for hybrid and cloud environments. You can perform incremental backups to AWS, Azure, GCP, or Wasabi, taking advantage of both reduced bandwidth usage and lower cloud storage costs. The incremental backup software optimizes data transfer to minimize egress fees.

Our incremental file backup software uses VSS (Volume Shadow Copy) on Windows and filesystem snapshots on Linux to capture open and in-use files consistently. This means databases, email servers, and other applications can continue running during backup without corruption or missed changes.
