Features

All platforms and common databases supported

AZ Data Safe supports all leading operating systems which can run Java2 Runtime Environment 1.4.1 or above, which are essentially all operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Mac, NetWare, NAS devices, etc. Besides, AZ Data Safe comes with modules specially designed for backing up common database applications, including Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server, Lotus Notes/Domino, Oracle and MySQL. This allows you to back up all these databases professionally as recommended by their respective software vendor easily without requiring you to know how it works technically behind the scenes. If the databases or applications you are using in-house are not listed here, don’t worry. Our extensible and easily configurable command line tools enable you to add custom backup logics to basic backup operation through simple scripting.

Backup 500GB in one night

Our Seed Load and in-file delta technologies enable backup of a large volume of data to be completed in a very short period of time. The seed load feature allows backup of the large volume of data to a local hard drive. With our proprietary in-file delta technology, the original file is required to be backed up once only, i.e. in the first backup job. Subsequently, only the changes within the file made since the previous backup are necessary to be backed up.

For example, for a very large 500GB file, you can simply seed load the full backup to a removable local hard drive and then deliver the seed loaded data in the removable hard drive to AZ Data Safe. Since only the changes made within the 500GB file, normally less than 1%, i.e. 5GB, of the original file size, are required to be backed up again, this amount of data can be backed up easily to the server via the Internet or Intranet in one night. As a result, instead of having to back up 500GB everyday, you just need to back up 5GB everyday to keep the file up-to-date on the backup server.

Backup individual mail in Microsoft Exchange Server

Microsoft Exchange Server is one of the most popular email servers used by businesses of any size. AZ Data Safe Software’s built-in Microsoft Exchange Server Backup Module allows you to back up all critical data within Microsoft Exchange Server, including individual email, calendar, and contact list, etc. This capability makes AZ Data Safe an ideal backup tool for Microsoft Exchange Server.

Continuous data protection

AZ Data Safe's advanced continuous data protection (CDP) technology captures every version of a file that has been saved to your hard drive. With CDP, even if your hard drive crashes completely after you have worked for a full day without invoking backup manually yourself, the saved copy of your working files will still be intact on the backup server. It provides a highly dependable means of real-time, continuous data protection for servers, desktops, and laptops effortlessly and transparently, without any human intervention. In addition, backup will only run when the computer is idle, or when the level of CPU utilization falls below a specific percentage (e.g. 20%), leaving backup operation completely transparent to users.

The virtue of backup is to make copies of critical data so that these additional copies can be used to restore the original following a data-loss disaster. With AZ Data Safe, data will be copied, compressed, 128-bit / 256-bit encrypted and finally uploaded to a remote server located offsite through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). These backed up data are 100% restorable to their original formats, when needed, by simply clicking a few buttons. In addition, AZ Data Safe provides another level of protection by allowing replication of the remote backup server(s) to another remote location. This gives a double protection that cannot be provided by other backup software alone.

Limited cost, unlimited protection

Once AZ Data Safe is deployed in your company, your invaluable data is protected against virus, theft, environmental impact, hardware failure, accidental deletion, etc. While the cost of investing in AZ Data Safe is limited, the value of critical business data it protects and the potential benefits you can derive from these data are enormous and unlimited.
