Bacula Systems announces Enterprise Edition 10 with new self-service backup for hosting companies, Backup as a Service and large IT Organizations

Introduces native integration for both Xen and Proxmox; boasts broadest compatibility with virtual environments while reducing data centers exposure to costs

Continuing to lead in high performance backup and restore for large enterprises and managed services providers, Bacula Systems today announced Bacula Enterprise Edition 10, featuring BCloud Service, a user-oriented front-end designed to safely delegate simple and restricted backup administrator tasks to an end user. This new feature, combined with unique cloud management tools, provides hosting companies and data centers with a unique range of tools to reduce costs, generate more revenue and operate more efficiently.

Bacula Enterprise Edition 10 also includes significant extensions to its VM Performance Backup Suite, with native integration of Xen and Proxmox added to its existing Hyper V, KVM and VMware capabilities, making it the most broadly compatible, scalable backup solution in the industry for virtual environments.

“Today’s announcement makes Bacula one of the most productive, flexible, broadly compatible backup and restore solutions available in the industry today. Not only MSPs, but all large organizations can deploy this solution for their entire physical virtual and Cloud environments regardless of architecture – all from a single platform” said Frank Barker, CEO, Bacula Systems.

Bacula Systems customers include NASA, Texas A&M University, Swisscom, Sky and many more.

The main features of Bacula Enterprise Edition 10 are:

• BCloud Service, for MSPs to enable their own customers to easily create and manage their own backup jobs, restore files, do LDAP authentication and much more.
• Expanded REST API for MSPs to allow high levels of customization
• Maximum Pool Bytes tool to set parameters for BCloud Service users
• Integration of Xen into Bacula’s VM Backup Performance Suite
• Integration of Proxmox into Bacula’s VM Backup Performance Suite
