NAKIVO, Inc., a fast-growing software company delivering data protection
and site recovery solutions, announced today the release of NAKIVO
Backup & Replication v8.5. To mark its 25th software release, NAKIVO is
offering a limited-time 10% discount on a 3-year Enterprise subscription
license.

NAKIVO Backup & Replication v8.5 has added:

  • Nutanix AHV Support: In addition to supporting VMware, Hyper-V,
    and AWS EC2 environments, NAKIVO Backup & Replication v8.5 can now
    protect Nutanix Acropolis-based infrastructures. By using a single
    pane of glass, customers can perform application-aware, image-based,
    incremental backup across VMware, Hyper-V, Amazon EC2, and Nutanix AHV
    environments.
  • Per-machine subscription licensing: Customers can now purchase
    a per-machine annual subscription for NAKIVO Backup & Replication at
    an unprecedented price starting at just $17 per machine/year. A
    machine is a VMware VM, Hyper-V VM, or a Nutanix AHV VM. The new
    licensing model removes vendor lock-in and enables customers to switch
    between virtualization platforms without extra backup fees or license
    changes.
  • Replication From Backup: Advanced data protection strategies
    require creating both backups of critical VMs for long-term data
    retention, and replicas of the same VMs for instant disaster recovery.
    Performing both VM backup and replication for the same VM doubles the
    load put on your production environment. NAKIVO Backup & Replication
    v8.5 can create VM replicas from existing VM backups, eliminating the
    need to read the same data twice from the source VM. Such VM
    replication jobs can be chained to a backup job and run automatically
    every time a backup is created.
  • Ransomware-Proof Mini Backup Appliance Based on Raspberry Pi: Given
    that it is exceptionally lightweight, NAKIVO Backup & Replication v8.5
    can be installed on Raspberry Pi devices, thus creating a portable yet
    fully-functional backup appliance, which can be configured to be
    ransomware-proof.
  • Software-Defined Backup Appliance Based on FreeNAS: NAKIVO
    Backup & Replication v8.5 can be installed on the FreeNAS operating
    system. By deploying NAKIVO Backup & Replication v8.5 on FreeNAS,
    customers can turn a NAS server into a cost-effective,
    hardware-agnostic backup appliance with industry-leading data
    protection and site recovery capabilities.
  • Auto-Update: NAKIVO Backup & Replication can be updated to the
    latest version in just a few clicks directly from the web interface.
  • Windows Server 2019 Support: NAKIVO Backup & Replication v8.5
    stays up to date with industry releases and can be installed on
    Microsoft Windows Server 2019.

“We are excited to introduce support for Nutanix AHV to our
customers,” said Bruce Talley, CEO of NAKIVO Inc. “With the new
per-machine subscription licensing, we are delivering one of the most
feature-rich, flexible, and cost-effective solutions available on the
market.”
