Storware Unveils Backup & Recovery 7.4, Featuring New Storware Cloud for Simplified, Cost-Effective Storage
Storware has officially released version 7.4 of its Backup & Recovery platform, introducing major enhancements designed to simplify storage management, reduce costs, and boost performance across key enterprise environments.
Introducing Storware Cloud: A New Era of Backup Storage
The centerpiece of this release is Storware Cloud, a flexible and cost-effective storage offering. Designed as an ideal secondary backup destination, Storware Cloud simplifies infrastructure complexity and provides tiered options to meet diverse customer needs, powered by industry leaders:
- Tier 1: Powered by N-able
- Tier 2: Powered by Vawlt
- Tier 3: Powered by Seagate
Storware Cloud also integrates seamlessly as secondary storage for the Storware Backup Appliance (SBA), including the newly launched SBA 1010 and SBA 1010E models.
Major Performance and Integration Upgrades
- VergeOS: Optimizations now deliver significantly reduced backup times and improved load balancing through enhanced store tasks and the ability to override NAS configurations at the hypervisor level.
- OpenShift: Backup processes are now faster and more efficient, thanks to optimized resource allocation, reduced staging space requirements, and direct metadata transfer to nodes.
- OpenStack: A new centralized transfer module streamlines all data transfer activities. The update also introduces a Skyline console plugin and extends support to the Dalmatian release and RHOSO 18.
- Microsoft Hyper-V & OS Agent: The Hyper-V path browser now allows access to hidden files, while the OS agent has received a major performance boost when processing very large sets of files and folders.
Additional Optimizations
Additionally, Storware Backup & Recovery 7.4 includes numerous fixes and optimizations, highlighted by an update to the Quarkus server 3.x for OSA & Microsoft 365 integrations, ensuring greater reliability and performance.
Storware Backup and Recovery emerges as a leading solution that bridges both concepts, offering comprehensive backup capabilities that ensure reliable data recoverability while simultaneously helping businesses establish true data resilience. Through its advanced features such as immutable backups that prevent tampering from ransomware attacks, instant recovery capabilities that minimize downtime, deduplication and compression technologies that optimize storage efficiency, and multi-cloud support that eliminates single points of failure, Storware enables organizations to not only recover from data loss incidents but also maintain business continuity even in the face of cyber threats, hardware failures, or natural disasters.
Additionally, its automated backup scheduling, point-in-time recovery options, and enterprise-grade encryption ensure that businesses can operate with confidence knowing their critical information assets are both protected and readily accessible when needed, transforming data protection from a reactive recovery process into a proactive resilience strategy.
Final Thoughts: Recovery Saves Data. Resilience Saves Businesses.
Here’s the bottom line:
- Data recovery still plays a vital role in everyday organizations, but it’s not enough.
- When disaster strikes, data resilience is what keeps you functioning, trustworthy, and safe.
- Together, they form the foundation of modern business continuity.
The worst time to test your data strategy is after disaster hits. So, don’t choose between recovery and resilience. Accept both and create a system that can not only endure but also thrive in the face of any disturbance.
