Unlock the Full Potential of
Wasabi Backup with NAKIVO

Direct Backups to Wasabi
Send backups and backup copies directly to Wasabi Hot Cloud storage to eliminate a single point of failure and ensure data recoverability in case the primary repository is unavailable. With NAKIVO, you can back up different environments, including:
- VMware vSphere VMs
- VMware Cloud Director VMs and vApps
- Microsoft Hyper-V VMs
- Nutanix AHV VMs
- Proxmox VE VMs
- Amazon EC2 instances
- Windows servers and workstations
- Linux servers and workstations
- Unstructured data on NAS and other SMB/NFS file shares
- Microsoft 365 apps and services

Automated Data Protection
Reduce administrative overhead and avoid retention policy gaps by automating your data protection activities. Use the Calendar dashboard to create a custom schedule that fits your data protection needs or run backups automatically on a daily, weekly or monthly basis while avoiding overlaps. You can also set policy rules to automate the protection of production machines that match the selected parameters. Additionally, the job chaining feature allows you to create automated sequences that include backup, backup copy or replication jobs one after the other.

Instant Full VM Recovery
Instantly boot VMs directly from compressed cloud backups to resume your workflow in minutes. For long-term use in a production environment, you can either migrate the booted VM or run a full VM recovery.

Granular Recovery
Search for and restore individual files, folders, application objects and Microsoft 365 items from backups stored in Wasabi. With granular recovery, you can swiftly respond to compliance and e-discovery requests and recover needed data to the original or a different location within seconds.

Instant Cross-Platform Recovery
Recover failed Windows or Linux physical servers and workstations in a few minutes as VMware VMs with the Instant P2V Recovery feature, without reinstalling the OS and applications.

Bare Metal Recovery
Ensure tight RTOs and recover Windows or Linux physical machines without reinstalling the OS. Restore entire systems directly to the same or identical hardware, minimizing downtime and manual effort.

Reliable Ransomware Resilience
Enable immutability in Wasabi cloud storage to protect your backups from modification, deletion or encryption by ransomware. Immutable recovery points are locked for a specified period and not even the root user can shorten the retention duration or edit the data. With immutable backups, you can guarantee data availability and recoverability in case you suffer from a ransomware attack.

Layered Security for Cyber-Proof Backups
The NAKIVO solution supports different encryption options, including password-based backup encryption at source as well as network and storage encryption to prevent data breaches. Set role-based access control and enable two-factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access to data protection activities.

Reduced Storage Consumption
The NAKIVO solution allows you to reduce your storage space consumption and decrease your storage costs since you pay for each GB of data stored on Wasabi. Perform incremental backups using native or NAKIVO proprietary tracking technologies to quickly copy only the changed blocks of data after the initial full backup. Backups can be compressed to further minimize their size and save additional storage space.

Efficient Network Usage
Improve operational efficiency and offload your production network when sending backups to Wasabi. You can either schedule backups to run outside of business hours or enable advanced Bandwidth Throttling to limit bandwidth consumption when performing data protection activities. Keep your production network running smoothly and at the same time store your backups in the cloud.

FAQ
What are the benefits of Wasabi cloud storage?
Wasabi is a reliable, scalable and affordable cloud storage. You only pay for the storage space you use, which means that you do not have to pay any extra fees for unused capacity or for data transfer when recovering from the cloud. In addition, Wasabi offers a single storage class for both frequently accessed data and long-term archiving, removing the need to move data between storage tiers.
How can I recover my data from Wasabi backups?
The NAKIVO solution allows you to instantly boot entire VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V VMs directly from backups in Wasabi cloud storage. You can also restore individual files, folders, app objects (Active Directory, Exchange Server, SQL Server) and Microsoft 365 items (in Exchange Online, OneDrive for Business, Teams and SharePoint Online) back to their original or to custom locations. It is also possible to recover Windows/Linux physical servers and workstations as VMware VMs using the P2V feature or to use the bare metal recovery feature.
How can I protect backup data against ransomware?
You can enable immutability when storing your backups in Wasabi. The feature uses the write-once-read-many (WORM) model to prevent modification or encryption by ransomware. Immutability cannot be lifted by anyone before the specified period ends. Along with immutability, set role-based access control and encrypt backups at source, in transit and at rest to mitigate cyber threats. Finally, scan backups for malware before data recovery to ensure no virus can infect the production server.
Can I try the Wasabi Backup Software for free?
Yes, the fully-featured 15-day Free Trial from NAKIVO gives you access to Wasabi cloud storage in addition to numerous advanced features. The trial does not have any limitations on functionality or number of protected machines and contains all the features you need to protect virtual, physical, cloud and SaaS environments. The deployment process is simple and you can book a free deployment session with NAKIVO experts who can help you install and configure the solution to run your first backup.
