Modern Backup & Recovery must-haves

Near Realtime RPO
Near-zero RPO for virtualization systems helps you get your applications up-and-running within minutes. With Amanda, no disaster is too big, and you are always protected.

Pre-run Checker Program
Amanda Community offers a Pre-run Checker Program that conducts sanity checks on both the tape server host and all the client hosts simultaneously. It also sends an e-mail report of any problems that could cause the backups to fail.

Comprehensive Storage Options
Device API allows for easy integration with storage devices. Bundled drivers support tapes, virtual tapes on disk, DVD-RW, RAIT, and Amazon S3. The amvault function can then copy backups to removable media for off-site (D2D2T) or cloud storage (D2D2C).

Backup Scheduling
Amanda’s unique approach to scheduling helps optimize backup loads across enterprise networks. Amanda community ensures data integrity while reducing manual interventions. It allows automated scheduling to back up large volumes of data.

Backup Normalization
Encryption on the client ensures the security of data in transit, while encryption on the backup server ensures the security of data at rest. Amanda supports up to 4096-bit keys with public-key cryptography as well as 256-bit AES encryption.

Dataveiligheid
Encryption on the client ensures the security of data in transit, while encryption on the backup server ensures the security of data at rest. Amanda supports up to 4096-bit keys with public-key cryptography as well as 256-bit AES encryption.
What the experts say

Hybrid Cloud Supported through Amanda Enterprise
Zmanda offers you unparalleled flexibility, performance, and ease of use across hybrid cloud configuration.
Highlights
Robust features. Developed for your security.
Amanda community boasts robust encryption algorithms natively while also providing you the flexibility to switch to a proprietary algorithm if needed on the use case. Any encryption function capable of reading and writing from standard input/output can be easily integrated with Amanda. This flexibility allows Amanda to benefit from rapid advances in encryption technologies while giving the end-user maximum flexibility.
Multiple Encryption Points
Amanda allows for data encryption at every transmission point allowing secure transmission of data during backup runs. If backed up data being intercepted over an internal VPN were a concern, encrypting the data on the client would be the best recommendation.
Encryption using Hardware Accelerator Cards
One easy way to encrypt data in Amanda Community is to use a PCI-X or PCI-e based encryption accelerator board. A variety of such cards that securely store keys in the hardware are available. Hence, there is no need to write down a key or memorize a password, this also helps you mitigate data breaches due to lost passwords.
