How to backup Microsoft SQL Server

Ahsay's Microsoft SQL server backup solutions will help you create a consistent and dependable back up strategy that works equally well across an organization's database environment. Coupled with cost-effective storage, our comprehensive server backup database and disaster recovery solution is the only backup solution you will ever need!

Hot database / transaction log backup

With the hot database / transaction log backup, you can back up the SQL database while continuing to access the data 24x7 without any service interruption or performance impact. This lets users carry on working while the backup is performed.

In-File Delta incremental backup

With our In-File Delta incremental backup technology, only changed blocks within the selected SQL databases are backed up after the initial full backup, which significantly saves backup time.

Multi-destination backup

You can back up the SQL Server data to multiple destinations, including local drive of the SQL Server, network share (e.g. a NAS share storage), FTP/SFTP server, and public cloud storage sequentially or concurrently.

Encryption

For backing data up to cloud, data security can be ensured by enabling the 256-bit truly randomized encryption that is impossible to be hacked even by brute force attack with supercomputer.

Scheduling

The SQL backup can be scheduled at one's will so that it is performed most conveniently. Administrators can also create multiple custom backup plans to comply with various regulatory requirements.

Retention / Versioning

Data being deleted from the SQL Server or older versions of emails and databases can be kept in the backup destinations as long as you want through retention policy settings.

Features empowering MSPs

Unlimited free trials

You can create unlimited free AhsayOBM / AhsayACB trial accounts for potential customers to try all the features and performance of your managed backup service without consuming any paid license.

Replication

Primary AhsayCBS is able to perform close to real time replication for all users' backup data and as well as its server settings to another standby machine. The replication server can have its own retention settings for additional backup data protection. Also, when the primary AhsayCBS is down, administrator is able to quick switch the replication server into a backup server to minize the downtime.

Scalability

Ahsay's Redirector allows you to create a farm of AhsayCBS backup servers with just a single public URL. All AhsayOBM and AhsayACB users will only contact the Redirector, and then the Redirect will direct them to different AhsayCBS. This allows MSP to add new AhsayCBS easily without the need to change any configuration from the client side.

API

With AhsayCBS API, you can extract the usage data for making your own usage and billing system, or integrate Ahsay's data into your existing management system to fulfill your need.

The audit trail in AhsayCBS management console provides administrator a clear chronological record of the activities that happened on the backup server for troubleshooting purpose.
