Backup Agents DISTRIBUTED BACKUP SUPPORT FOR APACHE HADOOP DATA – EARLY RELEASE FEATURE

Apache Hadoop® software enables distributed processing and storage of large data sets across clusters of commodity servers through the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) component. It is robustly designed to handle failures at the application level and will continue to run even when individual servers (or clusters) fail.

The distributed nature of Hadoop, and the risk of local machine failures, presents challenges in protecting Hadoop data. Commvault software expressly meets the challenges of this architecture, with the flexibility to address real-world data protection and archiving use cases.

KEY FEATURES • Distributed data protection operations that run in parallel on

multiple data access nodes for optimal load sharing

• Fault tolerant model that redistributes task loads when data access node failure is detected

• Support for full, incremental, and synthetic full backups

• Support for data archiving

• Faster LAN-free backup and restores

• Support for restoring Hadoop data to a different Hadoop cluster or a non-Hadoop cluster (any other file system)

LICENSES • Server File System

SETUP REQUIREMENTS • Install the UNIX/Linux File System Agent

AGENT ASSISTED APPLICATION PROTECTION FOR VMWARE VIRTUAL MACHINES – EARLY RELEASE FEATURE

You can use Commvault software to perform application aware backups for VMware Windows virtual machines running the following applications:

• Microsoft SQL Server

• Microsoft Exchange

• Oracle

Application aware backups capture the state of application data at the time of the backup, including data in memory and pending transactions, making it easier to restore the application for continued use. An application aware backup for a virtual machine quiesces the application, flushes its memory, and completes pending writes, then creates a snapshot of application data. After the snapshot is created, the application resumes.

This feature is supported for streaming or IntelliSnap backups.

Notes:

• Only standalone deployments of Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, or Oracle applications are supported.

KEY FEATURES • Application plug-ins automatically enable application access on

Windows VMs running SQL Server, Exchange, or Oracle database applications.

• Restore fully consistent application data from application client.

APPLICABLE AGENTS • Virtual Server Agent for VMware

• IntelliSnap for VMware

LIVE SYNC REPLICATION OF VIRTUAL MACHINES FOR MICROSOFT HYPER-V – EARLY RELEASE FEATURE

The Live Sync feature enables incremental replication from a backup of a virtual machine (source VM) to a synced copy of the virtual machine (destination VM). The Live Sync operation opens the destination VM and applies changes from the source VM backups since the last sync point.

Users can configure Live Sync to initiate replication automatically after backups or on a scheduled basis (for example, daily or once a week) without requiring any additional action from users. Using backup data for replications minimizes the impact on the production workload by avoiding the need to read the source VM again for replication.
