Create virtual instances using BMR’s KVM-based virtualization platform
May 20, 2019Data is prone to many risks. A ransomware attack can wipe out your data, or a technical breakdown could delete all your valuable data. As a result, you may not be able to access your machines and thereby lose critical information. While you have no control over unexpected data disasters, you can control how you choose to protect your data.
IDrive BMR includes a KVM-based virtualization platform, which lets you virtualize both your backed up physical machines and VMware servers on the BMR server, within seconds. You could use a recovery point created before an attack to create a virtual instance. Furthermore, all the recovery points created during data backup are not interdependent on each other in the backup chain. Hence, if any previous recovery point is deleted or corrupted you still can create virtual machines with the latest available recovery points.
The BMR server is configured with Intel Xeon series server grade processor and the latest DDR4 with ECC memory modules. It is also equipped with a server-grade power supply for high reliability. These factors make the BMR server an ideal device for virtualization.

- Local Image-based Backup - Perform backups of whole hard drives or multiple partitions as single ‘image’ files, with file- and system-level recovery points.
- Fast Incremental Backup - IDrive BMR optimizes your internet bandwidth usage by following up the initial full backup with backups of only the modified portions of the files and folders.

- Snapshot-based Restore - Restore multiple computers and perform point-in-time file and system recoveries using a single image stored on your BMR server.
- Instant Virtualization - In the event of a client machine failure, resume work in as less as 15 seconds by creating a virtual instance of the machine.
