NAKIVO releases v3.9 with multi-tenancy and self-service

CAMPBELL, USA: NAKIVO Inc., a virtualization data protection software provider, announced today that it has released NAKIVO Backup and  Replication v3.9.

Multi-Tenancy

Other VM data protection solutions are not tailored to the needs of cloud, service, and hosting providers, as supporting multiple clients requires installing and configuring a new and separate copy of a backup and replication product for each client. This lack of central point for data protection management adds management and maintenance overhead as well as additional compute resources and VM licenses.

NAKIVO introduces the industry-first multi-tenancy feature for VM backup and replication, enabling the creation of multiple isolated tenants within a single product deployment and managed under a single pane of glass. This enables managed services, cloud, and hosting providers to introduce VM BaaS, RaaS, and DRaaS to their clients more easily and cost-effectively.

Self-Service

In the Multi-Tenant mode, tenants can access the self-service portal to offload the ESXi VM backup, replication, and recovery tasks from the service provider. The self-service can be individually enabled or disabled for each tenant, and data protection privileges can be set for each tenant by a master admin.

Dynamic License Allocation

License allocation within NAKIVO Backup & Replication Enterprise Edition supports transferring licenses dynamically from one tenant to another as needed for cloud service providers or from one business unit to another as need for enterprises. In addition, qualified Cloud Providers can license NAKIVO Backup & Replication on the per-VM monthly rental basis.

EDITIONS, PRICING, AND LICENSING

NAKIVO introduces the Enterprise edition with the v3.9 release. All new features will be available in the Enterprise edition of NAKIVO Backup & Replication priced at $599 per socket. Qualified Cloud Service Providers have an option to license the product on a per-VM monthly rental basis.

Bruce Talley, CEO and co-founder of NAKIVO said:"We are proud to introduce the industry-first multi-tenancy and self-service to the VM backup market. The new features will enable our Cloud Provider partners to protect their clients' VMs more easily and cost-effectively."

"NAKIVO provides a technologically advanced solution to back up, replicate, and recover client's data at a price-point that our clients can afford," said Michael Marchuk, Senior Technical Director at American Data Centers. "The technology is outstanding and the process to implement the solution couldn't be easier or more straightforward. We know because we've tried and tested the leading VM backup solutions!"
