• Files, for Windows and Linux servers
• Databases
• Exchange infrastructure
• Office 365 Suite
• External storage

File backup

This feature is available for Windows and Linux, it allows:

• Protect all data by default, or choose certain directories or unit files,
• Use filter mechanisms to exclude files from backup (by name, by type)

File database backup

This feature is available for SQL Server, Oracle and MySql. It allows a consistent backup of your databases. Transaction-specific rollback is available, depending on the data recovery model defined on your databases.

Backup Exchange infrastructure

This feature helps protect your Exchange infrastructure.

Office 365 backup

This feature allows you to back up your Office 365 services (Exchange Online, Sharepoint, OneDrive, Teams) that rely on Azure directories and allows data to be restored in a granular manner.

External storage

In addition to its dedicated storage, FAB can be used to backup data (files, databases, …) to any chosen external storage (local storage, or Cloud storage example FE).

Characteristics

FAB has the following characteristics for the protection of your data.

• Secure web interface to access your backup tool
• Data protection through end-to-end encrypted tunnels
• Optimization of your bandwidth by benefiting from preconfigured internal mechanisms of compression and deduplication of protected data
• Object storage for backup data replicated on 3 datacenters.
• A “Bring Your Own Storage” option that allows choosing an external storage for data stored other than the one provided by FAB and defining a custom backup policy (day, time, frequency).
• On-demand backups according to your needs to protect your data on time
• Navigation in time for the restoration of your data on the date of their backup
• Restore your data to its source or to a destination of your choice
• Fine management of the elements to be protected / restored (granularity to the file)
• Version management (number of saved versions, retention period)
• Unlimited access management to your backup interface to define yourself, without constraint, the administrators of your backup
• Secure your data by replicating the backup to another Flexible Engine region
• Pre-configured dashboards and activity reports for easy monitoring of the Engine service
