The Bunker’s Managed Backup Service for your managed or un-managed environment hosted in The Bunker is managed by highly skilled technical and support staff, making sure we keep your data protected, available and, when necessary, restored.
Utilising the latest versions of the market-leading Veeam Backup and Replication software, we will design a backup solution to your specific business needs and requirements. The solution can also be combined with our other services, for example The Bunker’s Backup as a Service, to provide a fully comprehensive backup service.
In-house backups often get set up and forgotten about until you need to do a restore, and it is not unusual for customers to find that backups have not been working for months.
Let The Bunker manage this to make sure your important data gets backed up consistently and reliably; our daily job monitoring too ensures everything is working correctly every single day.
Veeam software is efficient at backing up virtual machines and uses hypervisor snapshot technology to keep your production running during backup with a small impact on performance. This impact on production can be reduced even further with the right SAN storage infrastructure, as we can then back up your virtual machines data directly from the SAN.
The Bunker are a Veeam Gold Service Provider, with Veeam trained and certified engineers. Veeam is very efficient at backing up virtual machines- just one reason why it is the market-leader- and, combined with our expertise, you can rest easy in the knowledge that your data is safe and readily available.
Backup job reports are checked and recorded each and every day by our 24/7/365 support staff, who will escalate any failures to the relevant technical engineers, ensuring that no issue goes unnoticed or unfixed.
Our solution will normally consist of a backup server with storage for local backups, running Veeam Backup and Replication.
Depending on the infrastructure being backup up, the Veeam proxy servers role may also be installed on your servers that are closer to the data to improve performance but moving data from source to destination.
We then use Change Block Tracking (CBT), unimportant data exclusion, data compression and deduplication to ensure that only necessary data is backed up, making the smallest backups possible to save you time and resource.
Using hypervisor snapshot technology and application-aware processing (or VMWare tools quiescence), we make sure that your backups are from a specific point in time at a consistent state.
