Comprehensive Backup and Recovery for Virtual Infrastructures
vRanger Pro 4 Data Protection Platform (DPP) is the next generation of Quest Softfware's market leading virtual backup and recovery solution. vRanger Pro allows administrators to ensure all virtual assets are properly backed up on a regular basis and that "computing ready" virtual environments can be restored and populated with recovered data as quickly as possible. Following are highlights of the new vRanger 4 Pro DPP solution:

•Up to 50% shorter backup windows with new Direct to Target Architecture that bypasses unnecessary proxy servers and writes backup data directly to target storage.

•Up to 2000% improvement in backup parallelism by executing multiple, simultaneous backups on all available ESX host servers.

•120X faster File Level Restores (FLRs) allow vRanger Pro to now recover single data files in minutes or even seconds.

•High speed LAN-free (fiber) backups up to 175MB/s with the fastest vStorage API implementation available today.

Platforms Supported:

•VMware vSphere ESX 4.x
•VMware ESX 3.x
•VMware ESXi (licensed versions only)
Quest Software vRanger Pro Datasheet
vRanger Pro Features:

Incremental Backups - performs a block-by-block scan and only backs up the files (or data and VM settings within them) that have changed since the last backup, reducing the amount of backup data.

Direct to Target Architecture - Backup traffic directly from the ESX host to the storage target removing proxy bottle necks in the backup traffic pattern.

Multiple Simultaneous Backups - Uses all available ESX hosts when performing backups.

Smarter Backups - Ignores reading or compressing white space resulting in faster full image level backups – more than an 80% improvement!

Instant File Level Recovery - Recover files while the original backup image remains compressed and encrypted or even de-duped.

Central Multi-Datacenter Management - Remote management capabilities of backup traffic between the ESX and the storage target eliminating the need to install clients at each data center.

LAN Free (Fiber) Backups using new VMware vStorage API - Perform faster backups than possible with existing VCB interface.

ESXi Support - Allows more VMware customers to use vRanger Pro as a fast, flexible, and cost-effective backup and recovery solution.

Intelligent Recovery - Image level restores use a single DataStream that consists of only the blocks needed for recovery so that no time is wasted reading, sending, uncompressing or writing blocks that are just going to be replaced by a newer incremental or differential file.

Smart Backup Manager – New backup management functions allows users more control over their backup throughput and environment.
