Install NAKIVO Backup & Replication on an ASUSTOR NAS to build a reliable, high-performance, energy-efficient, and cost-effective VM backup appliance for your VMware or Hyper-V environment! A VM backup appliance based on ASUSTOR NAS combines a backup software, hardware, storage, and data deduplication solution in a single device.

Uncompromised Protection for VMware and Hyper-V

ASUSTOR NAS servers provide premium quality, high performance, enhanced security, and optimal price-performance ratio. Owing to their power-saving features and an efficient cooling system, these servers offer improved energy efficiency and stability, which makes them a great option for processing and storing data. That is why using ASUSTOR NAS-based VM backup appliance powered by NAKIVO Backup & Replication gets you an uncompromised protection of your VMs running on VMware or Hyper-V.

Efficient Use of Storage Space

The storage space of any device is limited, and every megabyte counts, especially if you need to keep a large amount of backup data. When installed on an ASUSTOR NAS, NAKIVO Backup & Replication automatically uses global data deduplication to reduce the backup size and efficiently use the storage space available on the appliance. Moreover, NAKIVO Backup & Replication compresses these data blocks to further reduce the size of the backup to be stored on ASUSTOR NAS-based VM backup appliance.

High-Speed Backup

You need to have a fast and high-performance solution in place to ensure that VM backup and replication jobs are completed within the shortest possible time. NAKIVO Backup & Replication installed on ASUSTOR NAS can increase the VM backup and replication speed by up to 2X as compared with a VM-based backup solution. NAKIVO Backup & Replication installed on NAS also ensures improved VM backup speed due to its built-in features, such as forever-incremental backup, Changed Block Tracking (CBT), Resilient Change Tracking (RCT), Network Acceleration, Skip Swap Files and Partitions, and LAN-free Data Transfer.

Instant Recovery

When it comes to recovery, NAKIVO Backup & Replication installed on ASUSTOR NAS has all necessary means to perform data recovery within seconds. You can instantly restore VMs, files, Microsoft Exchange objects, and Microsoft Active Directory objects directly from compressed and deduplicated VM backups.

Backup to Cloud

Following the 3-2-1 backup best practice, NAKIVO Backup & Replication supports sending VM backup copies from ASUSTOR NAS to cloud storages (including Amazon EC2) and this way ensures double protection of your valuable data.
