Ever wandered in search of a solution for your flexible server environment? and if yes, Vembu BDR serves the best you look out for, in a solution. There has been an ongoing issue that seems to persist for quite a longer period among IT administrators who deal with multi-server management(i.e) They are required to manage their servers switching between physical and virtual environments.
While best known virtual environments include VMware, Hyper-V and KVM; Switching virtual machines among environments has never been an easy task to get accomplished. We’ve done our research on the percentage of IT administrators requiring flexible server environment and the result revealed that around 60-70% of IT administrators seem to face the environment switching scenario.
On further research, the solutions available for the requirement are very less and seem to be time consuming, complex processes to be accomplished.
Vembu BDR- One Stop Solution:
Vembu decided to break the complexity behind the requirement and make migrating server environments, the easiest task to get done.
- Vembu BDR allows users to get their business servers backed up, no matter which environment they run on.
- Vembu BDR supports backing up physical servers, virtual environments such as VMware ESXi server, Microsoft Hyper-V and KVM.
- The best part of having Vembu BDR is the restore options- No matter which environment you have your machines backed up from, you will be allowed to restore your backup data in multiple file format that supports different environment.
- The available restore file formats are- VHD, VHDX, Flat VMDK and IMG.
- While VHD supports the backup data bootable on Hyper-V machines.
- VHDX makes sure that machines with storage size more than 2TB can be booted as virtual machines in a Hyper-V environment.
