Community Appliance

The easiest way to get started with DRLM. It comes pre-installed and ready to use!

This is what our community appliance can do:

Smart Incremental Backups

Streamline backup and restore operations by capturing only changes made since the last backup.

Show more

This reliable, fast, and flexible method minimizes backup size, significantly reducing the time needed for both backup and recovery. It helps maintain RTO (Recovery Time Objective) and RPO (Recovery Point Objective) by ensuring quick system recovery while limiting potential data loss.

Data Access Control

Clients are restricted from viewing or interacting with other clients backup data, preserving data privacy and security.

Show More

By default, clients are granted access to their latest backup, simplifying recovery operations. However, this feature can be configured or completely disabled based on specific security or operational requirements, offering flexibility to match your organization’s data management policies.

Data Encryption

Protect your data from unauthorized access by encrypting it both in transit and at rest.

Show more

We use strong ciphers to ensure data privacy:

ECC-384 for encryption in transit, providing robust protection during data transfers.

AES-256 for encryption at rest, ensuring stored data is safeguarded with one of the most secure encryption standards.

This dual-layer encryption approach ensures that your data is protected both while it’s being transmitted and when it’s stored.

Data Immutability

DRLM backups are read-only by default, maintaining data integrity and protecting against unauthorized changes, accidental modifications, or potential data breaches.

Show more

This feature makes backups resilient against tampering, ensuring that the stored data remains unaltered and secure.

For advanced tasks, such as restoration testing or specific administrative functions, backups can be temporarily set to write mode by admins upon request, allowing controlled modifications while still maintaining overall data security.

Automatic Error Reporting

Ensure the reliability of your backup system. Backups must be monitored constantly, and any errors should be addressed promptly to guarantee proper data recovery when needed.

Show more

Ensuring no errors is essential to achieving seamless recovery in the event of a failure.

By configuring DRLM to send automatic alerts to your Monitoring tools, you can quickly identify and react to any issues. This integration allows for real-time notifications of errors or failures, enabling rapid resolution and ensuring that your backup system remains fully operational and secure.

Job Scheduler & Retention Policies

DRLM allows you to fully automate and customize your backup processes.

Storage Deduplication

This enterprise-grade feature in DRLM helps reduce the amount of storage space consumed by backed-up data, thereby controlling storage costs. By eliminating duplicate copies of data, deduplication can lead to significant savings—potentially up to 85%—depending on the type of data being backed up.

Show more

This technology analyzes the data before it is stored and identifies identical blocks of information, only saving a single copy while referencing it multiple times. As a result, it minimizes storage requirements, lowers costs, and optimizes resource usage. Enhancing efficiency and improving backup performance.

Anti Virus & Malware Protection

Backups serve as the first line of defense against cybersecurity threats. Ensuring that you have clean copies of your data is crucial for safely recovering from ransomware and other types of attacks.

Show more

By scanning for viruses and malware in your backed-up data, rather than on your systems, you avoid overloading your operational environment. This approach allows for the identification and elimination of threats without impacting your services, ensuring that only clean data copies are retained. This proactive measure not only enhances data integrity but also provides peace of mind, knowing that your backup strategy incorporates robust protection against potential cyber threats.

Cloud Archiving

A reliable solution for organizations without a secondary data center or branch office. By saving backup copies to your Cloud Storage Provider, you enhance the resilience of your backup and disaster recovery strategy.

Show more

This approach ensures that your data is stored securely offsite, reducing the risk of data loss due to local disasters or hardware failures.

To further strengthen your backup strategy, you can combine cloud archiving with Offsite Replication. This combination aligns with the 3-2-1 backup rule, which recommends maintaining three total copies of your data, stored on two different media, with one copy located offsite. Implementing this rule helps ensure that your backups are both secure and accessible, providing peace of mind in case of an emergency.

Offsite Replication

A crucial component of a robust disaster recovery strategy. Keeping at least one copy of your backups in a different physical location is highly recommended. Relying solely on backups stored in the same location as your primary data poses significant risks, especially in the event of natural disasters, fire, theft, or other catastrophic events.

Show more

By maintaining a second DRLM Appliance in sync with your primary system, you ensure that your data is ready for recovery at any moment. This offsite copy acts as a safeguard against disasters, allowing for swift restoration of services and minimizing downtime.

This practice aligns with the 3-2-1 backup rule, which emphasizes having three copies of your data on two different types of media, with one copy stored offsite. Implementing offsite replication helps organizations enhance their resilience and preparedness for any disaster scenario.

Full Backup & Disaster Recovery Orchestration

Empower your organization to implement a seamless, automated recovery process at an offsite location, ensuring business continuity in the face of disasters.
