Holzkirchen – 09/02/2018 – SEP introduces SEP sesam Grolar, the new version of its cross-platform hybrid backup and disaster recovery solution. Innovations in the release include S3 replication to the cloud, official support for the hypervisor OpenNebula, direct backup of the hyperconverged Nutanix infrastructure and optimized Si3 inline deduplication software with encryption. https://www.sep.de/

OpenNebula is the sixth hypervisor platform supported by SEP, alongside VMware, Red Hat RHV, Hyper-V, Citrix Hypervisor and KVM/QEMU. Encryption is now available for SEP Si3 deduplication and replication, which will help organizations comply with the EU GDPR. A 30-day free trial, including full support, is available at www.sep.de/download.

Market trends suggest that cloud replication will replace tape as the third medium for securely distributed and redundant backups. With S3 Cloud replication, businesses are able to generate a second or third copy in the cloud, which enables global access to backup data. Encryption of the DedupStore further reduces the data volume transferred to the cloud and SEP can securely transfer data to the cloud using https.
