* BackupChain detects what has changed inside a file and only stores (and transmits) the difference (In-file delta).
* Because only file differences are backed up, you can back up virtual machines, databases, and other large files to a remote location over the Internet and hold on to even hundreds of file versions.
* How-to: Backup entire virtual machine images while they are running.
* Backup entire databases without stopping the database server.
Backup to External Hard Drives, Network Drives, and FTP
BackupChain performs fast incremental backups to external hard drives, network drives, and FTP. The built-in FTP server permits receiving backup files from another computer.
To meet the needs of IT professionals, BackupChain contains specialized proprietary backup technology to handle millions of files and so-called "in-file deltas". Delta compression is ideal for very large files, such as database and virtual machine files, because only file changes are stored rather than the entire file. Using delta compression, BackupChain significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements.
Backup Your Servers and Workstations Securely Online and Control Both Sides
* Set up and control your own backup server host using the built-in FTP server. Running your own backup server at another site eliminates online storage costs and your data is stored on your own computers. Click here for more information on how to set up your BackupChain FTP Server.
* Send your files to any other PC running BackupChain or any FTP hosting site on the Internet.
* Copy your office files to your home computer and vice-versa.
* Synchronize your servers and PCs at several office locations.
* Secure your data with secure transmission (FTPS) and military-strength encryption (FIPS, HIPAA compliant).
Intelligent File Versioning
* Configure precisely the number of versions you want to keep depending on the file type and file location.
* Compress specific file types the way you want (in-file delta, zip, rar, gz, etc.)
* Specify different settings for each backup folder and file type
* Specify specific file types to omit
Backup Locked Files
* Backup locked files of any type.
* Backup databases while the database server is running (Microsoft SQL, Oracle, etc.)
* Backup virtual machine images (VMWare, Microsoft Virtual Server, etc.) while running.
* Backup program and system files while the applications are running.
