The initial full backup of a 25GB file to a NAS share averaged 51MB/sec and a 22.4GB mishmash of 10,500 files backed up at an impressive 61MB/sec.
There's also an account type for FTP/ FTPS servers. These could be pointed at any storage our servers could see, which included IP SANs, NAS shares and other local volumes. We used the File account type for hybrid backups. However, we had no problems securing our SQL Server 2014 databases, or running image-based and bare-metal backups of selected servers.Ĭloudberry's Enterprise Backup doesn't explicitly support Hyper-V or VMware, but we could install CEB inside our Windows virtual machines and use image backups to secure them, before restoring the image backups as Hyper-V or VMware virtual disks. We ran mail-store backups on our Exchange 2013 system running CEB, but brick-level backups aren't supported. A single perpetual licence costs 198, which drops to 165 each for five to nine licences and, of course, you'll need to factor in costs for cloud storage. It can also convert an image backup to an Amazon EC2 Windows Server instance for quick cloud disaster recovery.ĬEB doesn't have a central management console, and must be installed separately on every system you want to back up.
Furthermore, we could have placed multiple files in one archive to reduce the number of cloud requests and cut costs by using Amazon's Reduced Redundancy Storage for non-critical data.ĬEB can back up data from a cloud vault to a local drive, and even from one cloud provider to another. The advanced mode offers up to AES-256 encryption and block-level backup, while the simple mode uses Amazon's server-side encryption and allows data to be accessed directly from the AWS Console. CEB helps with the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Import/Export feature so you can copy data to a USB device for seeding and it'll prepare a packing slip to send it to your selected data centre. If you feed it the price per gigabyte of cloud storage, CEB will provide ongoing charge estimates on its dashboard and halt backups if they go above a predefined cost.Ĭloudberry's cloud expertise was obvious when we created a backup job for our Amazon account. We entered our access and secret keys, after which CEB displayed a list of our buckets and let us create new ones in the Amazon data centre. We could then start creating our cloud backup accounts. The CEB console is well designed and installation was completed in less than 30 seconds, requiring only that the client be activated with a licence. And there's plenty of choice: the Cloudberry Enterprise Backup (CEB) software on test currently supports more than 50 providers. It provides the tools to secure your Windows systems and business apps, but leaves the choice of storage provider up to you. Cloudberry Labs puts a new spin on cloud backup.
