ExaGrid takes pride in our ecosystem of technology partners by offering the single most scalable and cost-effective backup storage to any virtualized, physical or disaster recovery environment. ExaGrid’s next generation hyper-converged secondary storage for backup nets faster and more reliable backups – always.
Veeam Virtualized Backup
The partnership between ExaGrid and Veeam® provides a cost-effective disk-based backup solution that maximizes data reduction and scales to meet the needs of demanding enterprise environments. The combination of ExaGrid’s and Veeam’s industry-leading virtual server data protection solutions allows customers to utilize Veeam Backup & Replication™ in VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V virtual environments on ExaGrid’s disk-based backup system with data deduplication.
ExaGrid’s unique Landing Zone allows VMs to boot in seconds to minutes versus competitive appliances that could take hours. In addition, Veeam and ExaGrid have integrated the Veeam Data Mover with ExaGrid appliances to achieve 30% faster backup performance versus CIFS and 600% faster creation of synthetic fulls. ExaGrid also supports Veeam SOBR for automated job management and scalability.
Nutanix
Nutanix bridges the efficiency and performance gaps between enterprise datacenters and public clouds, driving faster time-to-market for important IT initiatives and delivering benefits that were once only possible with public clouds. Nutanix leverages a hybrid delivery model to capitalize on public cloud advantages while retaining the security and control of private datacenters. The Nutanix Enterprise Cloud integrates server, storage, virtualization and networking in a hyper-converged platform to run any workload at any scale, while removing the complexity of legacy infrastructure. ExaGrid’s scale-out hyper-converged secondary storage for backup provides a unique landing zone that keeps recent backups in their full native form for the fastest possible restores as well as a repository that stores deduplicated data for disaster recovery. When ExaGrid and Nutanix are combined and integrated, their key architectural elements are uniquely positioned to solve data storage, protection, and retrieval challenges.
Pure Storage
The partnership between ExaGrid and Pure Storage provides a comprehensive, next-generation storage solution that addresses the challenges of both backup storage and primary storage. Combined, ExaGrid and Pure Storage deliver industry-leading data storage and protection that seamlessly scales for enterprise-class performance and capacity within a smaller footprint, avoiding disruptive forklift upgrades.
Pure Storage’s FlashArray Purity Operating Environment and Evergreen Storage Architecture offers all-flash enterprise arrays that are 10X faster than traditional performance disk arrays and include advanced data reduction, storage management, and full support of future hardware and software technologies. ExaGrid’s scale-out system provides a landing zone that keeps recent backups in their full native form for the fastest possible restores as well as a repository that stores deduplicated data for disaster recovery. When ExaGrid and Pure Storage are combined and integrated, their key architectural elements are uniquely positioned to solve data storage, protection, and retrieval challenges.
HYCU
The partnership between ExaGrid and HYCU provides a backup-application-to-backup-storage solution for Nutanix AHV. HYCU and ExaGrid’s scalable disk-based backup appliance together provide an elegant yet simple end-to-end data protection solution for data centers running Nutanix AHV. HYCU auto-detects applications running in virtual machines (VMs) and makes them transparent to the infrastructure teams. With this new level of visibility, HYCU ensures that no critical applications are left unprotected – a key challenge for enterprises embracing cloud and HCI architectures in their modern data centers. Since HYCU creates application-specific recovery workflows, IT administrators can easily back up applications and recover data in minutes.
Mission Critical VMs Live Disaster Recovery
The partnership between ExaGrid and Zerto provides a cost-effective offsite disk-based backup solution that employs data deduplication to store long-term retention of offsite Business Continuity Tier One VMs cost effectively in a small storage footprint. With ExaGrid’s unique architecture, the most recent Zerto Offsite Backup of Tier One VMs in a Virtual Protection Group (VPG) is first stored in a landing zone in its native format for fast Zerto VM restores and boots. Long-term retention copies of these Offsite Backups of Tier One VMs are stored in the ExaGrid repository as deduplicated data, resulting in a reduced storage footprint that allows you to satisfy extended retention policies at a greatly reduced storage cost. The combination of Zerto’s Offsite Backup and the ExaGrid landing zone plus repository offers the best of all worlds.
Veeam Disaster Recovery In The Cloud
The partnership of Veeam, OffsiteDataSync, and ExaGrid provides hosted Disaster Recovery as a Cloud Service. ExaGrid appliances that are located onsite at the customer’s data center replicate Veeam backups to one of OffsiteDataSync’s Tier IV data centers. This solution is for Veeam customers who prefer to use operating versus capital budget for their DR solution, or who don’t own or operate their own second data center.
Disaster Recovery In The Cloud
ExaGrid works with ATS Cloud whereby ExaGrid appliances located onsite at the customer’s data center can replicate to ExaGrid appliances housed and operated by ATS Cloud. This solution is for customers who want operating expense (OPEX) for their DR solution or who don’t own or operate their own second data center.
