Overview

Service Overview

Backup is a service that backs up and recovers in case of an emergency the user’s data in a safe manner.
Since a backup policy includes the backup target, frequency, retention period, etc., users set a backup plan according to their business environment and requirements.

Features

  • Backup Scope: Providing optimal backup and recovery services tailored to various business purposes, ensuring customers’ important data is safely preserved.
  • Flexible Policy Configuration: You can set backup policies based on the usage environment and data importance. Users select backup targets and types, and specify retention periods and schedules.
  • Backup Network: We minimized potential service impact during backup by using a backup network connection. The backup system and network block unauthorized access through permission management.
  • Remote backup: Agentless backup can store backup copies at a different location. If a failure or disaster occurs at the backup site, you can recover using the backup copies stored at the other location.
  • Replication: Agent backup can replicate the same backup to another location for storage. The schedule and retention period are set the same as the original, and in case of a failure or disaster at the backup location, recovery can be performed using the backup copy stored at the other location.

Provided features

Backup provides the following features.

  • Backup target: The user can select the target server for which they want to obtain a backup.
  • Backup Save: You can select the storage location for the backup.
  • Encryption: AES-256 algorithm encryption is applied.
  • Retention Period: You can set the retention period for backups. Backups whose retention period has elapsed are automatically deleted.
  • Schedule: This is the automatic backup generation interval.
  • Recovery: You can select a backup created at the desired point in time to restore resources.

Component

Backup provides a scheduling feature that automatically creates backup copies at predefined intervals and times. Users set retention periods and other parameters to ensure they can obtain backups from the desired point in time, and depending on the backup target and type, agent configuration may be required.

Backup type

Provides Agentless Backup and Agent Backup, and you can select based on the backup target.

  • Agentless Backup: You can back up by creating a Backup service without configuring a separate agent. VM image backups of Virtual Server and GPU Server are considered Agentless Backup.
  • Agent Backup: Before creating a Backup service, you need to create a Backup Agent and configure the Agent on the server you want to back up. This applies to filesystem backups.

Backup Category

  • Full Backup: Backs up all data.
  • Incremental Backup: Backs up data that has changed since the previous backup.

Schedule

Backups are automatically created according to the generation interval set by the user. You can schedule up to 1 Full Backup and up to 6 Incremental Backups.
When using the Immediate Backup feature, you can create a backup at a specific point in time desired by the user, in addition to the scheduled backups. The backup intervals that can be configured in the schedule are as follows.

  • Daily: Start Time Select

  • Every week: day, start time select

  • Monthly: Week, Day of week, Start time selection

    • Start Time: hour (1~23), minute (00, 30) select
