Physical and Virtual

Most businesses today have a mixed environment of physical and virtual servers. Barracuda Backup is a single solution to protect physical servers and virtual machines (VMware & Hyper-V) with snapshot and granular file recovery—all with unified management for replication and retention.

All-in-One Backup Solution

Barracuda Backup is a complete solution that comes from one vendor. It combines software, in-line deduplication, and offsite cloud or private replication without perserver or per-application licensing fees.

Flexible Deployment

Barracuda Backup is available as an all-inone physical appliance or a virtual appliance software offering for those wanting to leverage existing storage and compute infrastructures. Barracuda Backup can replicate data securely and efficiently from an on-premises physical or virtual backup appliance to Barracuda Cloud, a remote physical appliance, a remote virtual appliance, or Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Our solution gives customers the choice of deployment options so they aren’t locked into any specific architecture or platform, and the ability to maintain complete control of their backed-up data.

Cloud-to-Cloud Backup

While Software-as-a-Service and cloudhosted environments, such as Microsoft Office 365, are a fantastic way to mitigate natural and mechanical failures, humancaused data loss is still ever present.

Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup for Microsoft Office 365 environments protects Exchange Online, OneDrive for Business, and SharePoint Online from accidental deletion and data loss.

Barracuda Backup Diagram
"Recently I tried one of these dedicated products to protect of advanced persistent threats. After one month of extensive monitoring it turned out that our Barracuda NextGen Firewall F protects our infrastructure so well, that we can continue to focus on actual business problems. Having chosen the right firewall still saves us money and time every day."
