StoreGrid offers complete protection for Virtual Environments by providing a platform for IT Service Providers to offer maximized Virtualization as a solution for SMBs to enable a reliable and an affordable backup and disaster recovery strategy in a virtual environment.

StoreGrid comes up with one of the fastest Backup and Recovery solution of live systems running either in Physical environment or Virtual environment including VMware VCenter, ESXi, ESX, Microsoft Hyper-V and Citrix XenServer, hence saving your time and ensuring no or comparatively lesser downtime of critical systems.

Backup VMWare vSphere, ESX and ESXi

StoreGrid provides an agentless, image level backup of Virtual Machines available under ESX/ESXi/VCenter using VMWare Plugin. The plugin uses VMWare API's to backup the selected Guest OSes and then upload it to the backup server. The client can be installed in any machine to backup the Virtual Machines. It can restore the virtual machine including the virtual machine's state and the data includes all the files that make-up the virtual machine, including disks, memory, and other devices, such as virtual network interface cards.

Backup Hyper-V Servers

StoreGrid installed in the Hyper-V Host Server can backup the VMs running on it using the Microsoft VSS to make sure the VMs are in a consistent state before backing up. StoreGrid backs up only the changed data in the VMs during incremental backup. StoreGrid can backup the data directly to the remote backup server without requiring a temporary storage space in the Hyper-V server that is backed up.

Backup Citrix Xenserver

StoreGrid implements backups at the hypervisor level, creating image snapshots of each virtual machine in the Citrix Xenserver. This allows a fast restore of full virtual machines to the original virtualization server or to another Xen machine. StoreGrid’s Xenserver backup provides an automated way to directly stream snapshots to the backup server without creating a local dump or a local copy.
