Backup and manage Linux data remotely

Take complete control of your data through a single management interface. Redstor’s powerful, web-based solution allows you to manage your data environment and establish consistent protection policies across the entire estate through one central, easy-to-use system.

Linux integration

Our pioneering technology recovers what you need, when you need it – to the original location, into VMware or Azure or wherever else required.

By backing up the Linux system state as well as the files, folders and metadata on a system, Redstor significantly simplifies the disaster recovery process.

Linux Backup Integration Linux Backup Integration

Obtain free local copy for hybrid deployment without the need for bespoke hardware appliances

Install the intuitive Redstor agent and set your own encryption key

Local applications will be automatically detected

Toggle on Full System Recovery, start a backup and your entire Linux system will be protected securely in two data centres

After an initial full Linux backup, Redstor is forever incremental, using de-duplication and compression, providing rapid and efficient protection

Powerful functionality like Local Copy and Remote Access can all be enabled in a couple of clicks

Full System Recovery

Simplify FSR by restoring operating system information, any installed software or updates and hot fixes simultaneously with the recovery of filesystems: ext2, ext3, ext4, xfs, vfat, fat.
Avoid the cost of transferring data to and from Azure by performing a bare metal recovery to an automatically created virtual machine in Azure.
Benefit from improved performance as data has no need to be transferred via a local machine, an even bigger advantage if the recovery is initiated from a storage platform also in Azure.
