Boston-based Intronis Inc. has made available its Fall Release ’12, the latest version of the company’s cloud backup and recovery solution for the channel.
Now interoperable with VMware vSphere, the Fall Release ’12 enables Intronis partners to make system-image backups within their backup and recovery solution. The new functionality also enables partners to streamline backups of multiple VMware virtual machines across several servers to the cloud, a local vault, or both. All backups are encrypted and restoration of customer data is completed from the cloud through the centralized Intronis partner portal.
Leveraging the VMware vSphere Web Services API, the Intronis solution now offers deduplication at the device level and features wizards already available to Intronis partners for other data backups, including files/folders, Microsoft Exchange Information Store, Exchange mailbox, SQL, and System State. Other enhancements include improving the overall operational efficiencies of the Intronis partner portal by making advancements to the backup status dashboard, file scanning, and more, says the company.
“Our Fall Release continues to support Intronis’ value proposition of making it easier, more reliable, and less time intensive for our MSP partners to manage their Intronis backup solution,” says Carol Ferrari, vice president of marketing and community for Intronis. “Having the ability to support VMware vSphere environments via system image-based backups, along with all other backup types, and store them to the cloud or a local device from one centralized Web-based portal is a functionality our partners have been asking for, and we’re pleased to deliver.”
Our Fall Release will help Intronis partners streamline the day-to-day management of their back up business, reducing their Manhours Per Gigabyte, improving profit margins, and expanding their cloud-based managed service capabilities.”
“The addition of VMware vSphere support in Intronis’ new Fall Release is a big win for channel partners and certainly makes it easier and more efficient for us to remotely manage backups for both virtual and blended IT infrastructures,” notes Intronis partner MJ Shoer, president and virtual chief technology officer, Jenaly Technology Group Inc.
