Functions

Cloud Disk Backup

Manual disk backup

A cloud disk backup is a snapshot-based backup of EVS disks. You can back up a single disk or all disks to protect data on them.

Policy-based backup

With a backup policy, you can schedule regular backups of all disks to a vault, enabling fast restoration in case of data loss or corruption.

Backup management

You can set search criteria to quickly find the backup tasks you want to manage. Then you can view their details, share, restore, or delete them if needed.

Disk restoration from backups

When a disk is faulty, or their data is lost, you can use a backup to quickly restore the data.

Disk creation from backups

You can use a disk backup to create a disk that contains the same data as the backup.

Backup sharing

You can share a disk backup with other accounts. Shared backups can be used to create new servers and disks.

Cloud Server Backup

Manual server backup

Cloud server backup uses the consistency snapshot technology to protect data for ECSs without the need to install the Agent on servers. It allows you to back up the entire servers.

Policy-based backup

With a backup policy, you can schedule regular backups of servers, enabling fast restoration in case of data loss or corruption.

Backup management

You can set search criteria to quickly find the backup tasks you want to manage. Then you can view their details, share, restore, or delete them if needed.

Server restoration from backups

When a server is faulty, or their data is lost, you can use a backup to quickly restore the data.

Backup sharing

You can share a server backup with other accounts. Shared backups can be used to create new servers.

Image creation from server backups

You can create images from ECS backups and then use the images to quickly provision ECSs to restore services.

With cross-region replication, you can replicate backups to destination regions and then create images and use the images to provision ECSs there.

Database server backup

Cloud server backup supports both crash-consistent and application-consistent backups. You can use it to back up ECSs running MySQL or SAP HANA databases, as application-consistent backups ensure transactional consistency by capturing in-memory data and pending I/O operations.

Cloud server backup enables you to replicate generated backups from one region to another. You can use the replicas in the destination region to create images and provision servers.
