Synology has come out with a product that many business and enterprise customers could enjoy and value. We plan to offer these new products in our HaaS services and MSSP data protection plans. You can read more about these products form the Synology newsroom release here.
Some of the benefits of this new backup only appliance are:
- Centralized Data Protection: ActiveProtect centralizes organization-wide data protection policies, tasks, and appliances, providing a unified management and control pane. This streamlines data protection management and reduces operation overhead.
- Comprehensive Coverage: It covers endpoints, servers, hypervisors, storage systems, databases, and services like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. This reduces IT blind spots and minimizes the need for multiple data protection solutions.
- Ease of Deployment and Managment: IT teams can quickly deploy ActiveProtect appliances in minutes. The intuitive design allows for easy implementation of immutability, air gapping policies, and recovery procedures.
- Scalability: Each ActiveProtect appliance can operate standalone or in a cluster-managed mode. Storage capacity can be tiered with Synology NAS/SAN storage solutions, C2 Object Storage, and other ActiveProtect appliances in the cluster. Existing Synology Active Backup for Business deployments are also manageable from the unified interface.
- Fast and Efficient Backups: ActiveProtect leverages incremental backups with deduplication to ensure fast backups and replication with minimal bandwidth usage.
In summary, Synology ActiveProtect Appliances empower organizations to address cybersecurity challenges effectively while simplifying data protection management.
