Key Benefits
How Vinchin meets what you consider most in data protection
Improved Data Availability
Saving extra backup copies on cloud object storage guarantees high data availability
because it effectively prevents data loss from system failure or site damage in the
primary production environment. Vinchin Backup & Recovery calls Amazon S3 API to help
virtualization users easily realize cloud-based data protection. By archiving backups in
the local backup repository to Amazon S3, you can make sure all critical data is always
accessible and can be recovered anywhere, anytime you want. Restored archive data can be
used in Full VM Restore, Instant VM Restore, and Granular Restore to effectively fix
different types of urgent issues in the production environment.
Data Retention Policy Compliance
Public cloud archiving stands as the best cold data storage approach in enterprise-grade
data protection, due to its high flexibility and security. For your important yet rarely
accessed parts of data, Vinchin Backup & Recovery can help to easily archive them to
Amazon S3 for long-term data retention, a policy for information security required in
many companies and regions.Building a data protection center on cloud makes your
essential old data unbreakable and always ready to be recovered, which cannot be hurt by
any possible damage or disaster in the physical data center. You can simply archive your
backups of these data to Amazon S3 using Vinchin Cloud Archive ensures their absolute
safety.
Optimized Storage Space
Vinchin Backup & Recovery provides multiple data reduction technologies to reduce the
size of initial backup data from the source end, which also helps save cloud storage if
any of the backup needs to be archived to Amazon S3. Use Deduplication, Compression and
Vinchin BitDetector for effective data reduction. With the storage-saving optimization
task done in advance, Vinchin Backup & Recovery can now transfer the archived version of
your backups to the cloud at ease. With smart retention policy available, you can also
decide the number of preserved restore points for a single archive job, realizing
advanced data protection on cloud.
High-Level Data Security
By utilizing multiple encryption techniques, Vinchin Backup & Recovery not only encrypts
the data you want to archive beforehand during initial backup process, but also secures
the whole archive process when data is being transferred to Amazon S3. Under the
reliable support of dual data protection, the chance for eavesdroppers to access any of
your archive data is zero. Also, password verification will be required for each
encrypted archive restore job, making sure it can only be accessed and used by the right
person.
Simplified Management
Vinchin Backup & Recovery provides a single web-based console to centralize the
management of all data protection features. By logging in the console with a unique
account, you can easily operate everything that links to cloud archive jobs and archive
restore jobs, making connections between the backup system and cloud object storage
close at hand. You can create a cloud archive job for existing backups of a single VM or
a whole virtual infrastructure to automatically run once-off or by schedule per day,
week, or month, or restore any old cloud archive to the on-premises backup repository
for further use, which all require only 3-4 steps of straightforward configurations. You
can also directly delete any full restore point stored in Amazon S3 without any extra
interface needed.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions when archiving backups to cloud
Can I restore VMs directly with the backup archive data?
No. You need to create an archive restore job to restore the archive data to onsite storage
first, then use the restored data to restore VMs.
Can I archive my file backups and database backups?
The answer is NO. Backup Archive feature can currently be used to only archive VM backups on
Vinchin Backup & Recovery v6.5 and later versions.
Why I only got one full restore point of my VM backups after achiving? What happened to the
incremental restore points?
Each backup archive job session will only send a latest version of full backup to the cloud
object storage. If the lastest backup is incremental, Vinchin Backup & Recovery will
transfer necessary data blocks of the backup chain to the cloud object storage to form a
latest full restore point.
What are the differences between backup copy and backup archive?
Backup copy feature will make an exactly the same copy of your backups (VM, file and
database backups) to another storage or to another location for disaster recovery, while
backup archive only sends a latest full restore point (1 full restore point per job session)
to the cloud object storage.
