Cgest Data Protect - Secure Managed Continuous Backup and Recovery uses R1Soft CDP Solution, a server software application that enables disk-based data protection and disaster recovery for Linux servers and workstations running Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. CDP Server protects disk volume data using replication and synchronization over the network storing point-in-time snap shots in disk-based storage.

Cgest Data Protect - Secure Managed Continuous Backup and Recovery with R1Soft CDP Solution, is a Backup solution that continuously captures your entire system configuration to an off-site facility which allows for up to the minute recovery of your information.

R1Soft’s Continuous Data Protection (CDP) solution is a near-Continuous Backups system capable of providing hundreds of recovery points per day scheduled as little as 5 or 10 minutes apart.  For an introduction to Continuous Data Protection technology we recommend the following Wikipedia articles:

CDP Server works by reading your hard disk volumes at the sector level, bypassing the file system for the ultimate in performance and recovery.  This disk sector synchronization is performed while the server is online and provides no interruption to other I/O requests even on a busy server.  By reading the disk at the lowest possible level point-in-time recovery images contain your files and all the formatting, partition tables, and volume configuration needed for complete and instant disaster recovery.

Continuous Backups

During normal host operation, the Cgest Data Protect - Secure Managed Continuous Backup and Recovery with R1Soft CDP Solution agent keeps a journal of disk changes. Incremental backups know what sectors on the disk have changed before the backup operation even starts. Our system method is less resource intensive than tradition file-by-file or block-by-block backup methods.

Incremental Snapshots

Our technology provides consistent point-in-time system-wide backup images.

Bare-Metal Disaster Recovery

Restore servers directly from disk-based backup. Unlike traditional backup software, there is NO need to first partition your drive and install the operating system. Bare-Metal-Recovery greatly increases the speed of complete system recovery from a catastrophic failure.

High Performance, Low System Impact

Sector based backups increase throughput and reduce overhead. Servers can be fully operational with minimal performance impact during backups. Backups can usually be performed at anytime, even on busy servers.
