Acronis brings business data protection solutions to the cloud
With the increased threat of data loss from security breaches or system failures, many enterprises are turning to cloud solutions to look after their information.
Backup specialist Acronis is keen to take a slice of this market with the launch of its Acronis Data Protection Platform. This is a cloud platform that seeks to transform the way data protection is delivered to end-user customers by service providers, resellers and distributors.
"For companies everywhere, suffering from data loss and disasters is not a matter of if, but when -- it will happen", says Serguei Beloussov, co-founder and CEO at Acronis. "With the introduction of the Acronis Data Protection Platform, we make complete data protection easy, complete and affordable for businesses of all sizes and empower service providers and resellers to capitalize on this massive market opportunity".
The company is also releasing a new version of Acronis Backup Cloud, its leading cloud backup solution, and introducing Acronis Files Cloud, a new file sync and share product. Acronis is also announcing the global availability of Acronis Disaster Recovery Service, its all-in-one solution for backup and disaster recovery.
Based on an advanced cloud architecture, the Acronis Data Protection Platform delivers software-as-a-service solutions, including backup, disaster recovery and file sync and share. The platform is powered by the Acronis AnyData Engine -- a set of powerful data protection technologies that can capture, store, recover, control, and access any data from any location.
Improvements to Backup Cloud include expanded support for Microsoft SQL, Microsoft Exchange, and Mac OS X environments, plus initial seeding capabilities to easily move large volumes of data to the cloud.
File Cloud offers workers a secure alternative to consumer file sharing services, with safe file access, sync, and share in an easy-to-use cloud service. The solution helps service providers and partners quickly address the growing need for businesses to securely support BYOD and mobile workforces.
