SQL Backup
on Windows Server
Ensure reliable protection of your Microsoft SQL Server data with the NAKIVO Backup & Replication’s Windows Server Backup.

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system that is widely used in many modern companies. It is primarily used to store data required by other applications, such as analytics. For this reason, the loss of such data can be detrimental to business. This can happen due to a multitude of reasons including malware, viruses, hardware failure, or a simple human error.
Recovering SQL data on Windows Servers after such an incident can be quite a complex and long process. NAKIVO Backup & Replication alleviates this problem by allowing for the application-aware backup of SQL objects on Windows Server.
SQL Backup in NAKIVO Backup & Replication

Incremental
By using the proprietary change tracking method, NAKIVO Backup & Replication can perform incremental backup. This allows for only changed data blocks to be copied to the backup repository, which helps save storage space and increase backup speed.

Application-Consistent
NAKIVO Backup & Replication performs application-aware backup of SQL data on Windows Servers. This means that all relevant data is backed up in a transactionally consistent manner and can be recovered at will.

Protected
NAKIVO Backup & Replication protects SQL backups in flight and at rest with AES 256 encryption. This adds additional level of security to your backups by protecting your data from unauthorized access.

Flexible
NAKIVO Backup & Replication retention policy allows to keep 4,000 recovery points and rotate them on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis.
Copy Your Backups to Cloud or Offsite with Backup Copy
You can never be too careful when it comes to data protection. NAKIVO Backup & Replication allows you to create copies of your SQL Server backups and send them offsite or to the cloud. Due to Job Chaining, Backup copy jobs can run automatically after the initial SQL Server backup is completed, which eliminates any need for manual input.

Instantly Recover SQL Server Data
NAKIVO Backup & Replication ensures that you don’t waste your time and resources on complex recovery processes in order to get the data you need. The solution allows for recovery of SQL Server objects directly from compressed and deduplicated backups in just a few clicks.

Improve SQL Backup Performance
NAKIVO Backup & Replication can greatly improve SQL Server backup performance with Networks Acceleration. This increases data transfer rates by up to 2X, which results in faster backups and shorter backup windows.

Reduce Storage Space Consumption
NAKIVO Backup & Replication can significantly reduce storage space consumption with its global deduplication feature. This ensures that only unique data is saved during the backup process. The deduplicated data is then compressed to occupy even less storage space. Additionally, NAKIVO Backup & Replication can further reduce storage space requirements by truncating SQL logs during backup.

Control Your Bandwidth Usage
If you need to back up your SQL Server during busy working hours, it may put an additional strain on the network. NAKIVO Backup & Replication can help avoid this problem with Advanced Bandwidth Throttling. With this feature, you can create global rules that are going to affect your backup jobs and limit the bandwidth that the solution can use. Alternatively, you can enforce these rules on a per-job basis in each individual case.
