Zerto, a provider of virtual business continuity and disaster recovery software, has announced general availability of Zerto Virtual Replication version 4.5. The latest version of the hypervisor-based, all in one replication and recovery solution includes a new Journal File Level Recovery feature that enables the restoration of any file (SQL, Oracle, Exchange, and user data) from a point in time just seconds before a deletion, virus, or data corruption occurred to reduce the impact of data loss on common daily requests for data restoration.
Zerto Virtual Replication 4.5 also offers:
- Journaling Compression of changed blocks from the protected Virtual Machines (VMs). The solution maintains a granularity of the data in increments of seconds up to the past two weeks. This enables point in time recovery with the ability to rewind data back in time to recover from corruptions, deletions, or even system-wide data disruptions due to ransomware or system upgrade errors.
- Role-based Access Control integration into Active Directory to delegate view, edit, test, and failover permissions to users and groups on a per protection group basis to provide application owners with disaster recovery self-service.
- Automatic prioritization of replication traffic to enable maximum WAN utilization across all tiers of protected applications, with dynamic optimization of the replication traffic of each application in a bandwidth contention scenario to ensure business and application SLAs are maintained.
- New APIs for automating deployment and the creation of protection groups to enable automatic protection and subsequent editing of protected VMs.
“The ability to help IT and business leaders confidently recover and restore within minutes any aspect of their IT infrastructure up to the last seconds of an outage is one that truly gives our customers a competitive advantage. For highly regulated industries such as healthcare and financial services, this level of business continuity and disaster recovery granularity helps them easily exceed compliance requirements, while providing better customer experiences,” says Oded Kedem, CTO and co-founder, Zerto.
