Protect KVM workloads overview
Protect your KVM VMs and storage pools with NetApp Backup and Recovery. NetApp Backup and Recovery provides fast, space-efficient, crash-consistent, and VM-consistent backup and restore operations.
You can back up KVM workloads to Amazon Web Services S3, Azure NetApp Files, or StorageGRID and restore KVM workloads back to an on-premises KVM host.
Use NetApp Backup and Recovery to implement a 3-2-1 protection strategy, where you have 3 copies of your source data on 2 different storage systems along with 1 copy in the cloud. The benefits of the 3-2-1 approach include:
-
Multiple data copies provide multi-layer protection against both internal (insider) and external cybersecurity threats.
-
Multiple media types ensure failover viability in the case of physical or logical failure of one media type.
-
The onsite copy facilitates quick restores, with the offsite copies available just in case the onsite copy is compromised.
