Micro Focus Data Protector Software Licenses

Scale, Flexibility, and Reliability

Micro Focus Data Protector has been evolving for over 30 years, mostly as part of the Enterprise Storage Group within HPE. It has the deepest integration with HPE StoreOnce and is designed to scale with large enterprise storage implementations.

Backup solutions have grown with companies, not only in the scale but also in the range of technologies used. From traditional disk and tape storage through the move to virtualized environments and on to cloud storage, whether public, private or hybrid, Data Protector has you covered.

With a long-term install base of thousands, Data Protector has proven itself with reliable and consistent data restoration when needed for full or file level restore back to physical or virtual machines. A backup is only as good as your ability to reliably restore from it.

Enterprise-class Security for Protection and Recovery from Ransomware and Cyber-attacks

Micro Focus Data Protector has built-in security at the highest level to protect your business-critical backups. Its Common Criteria Certification ensures its development process follows strict design and security practices to prevent attacks on backup data and the backup software itself.

Centralized command and control with user authentication and LDAP integration together with configurable AES 256-bit encryption per client and secure client communication via TLS 1.2 protects against growing threats.

Immutable backups, WORM, and air gap backups are all part of the critical data backup now needed to enable recovery from ransomware attacks. 

Making multiple copies on different media is also essential for key business data with local copies for faster retrieval, and secure off-site backups for protection.

Certified Application Integration and Application-consistent Recovery

Micro Focus Data Protector has certified integrations with leading applications including SAP®, SAP HANA®, Oracle®, Microsoft, and others to ensure consistent data protection and compliance.  

Leading business application integrations extend backup, automated point-in-time recovery, and granular restores to application owners enabling them to manage, drive, and service their own requirements.

Application consistent backups ensure the system configuration and ‘in-flight’ data is also backed up resulting in faster recovery of data and restoration of the application system state.

Standardized Protection

Micro Focus Data Protector’s unified and scalable architecture enables centralized management across physical and virtualized environments, disparate OSs, and business applications from core data centers to remote sites.

Fully integrated advanced reporting provides operational insight and allows storage optimization and growth prediction. Audit reports save time and resources while management dashboards ensure backup or schedule issues can be identified quickly and clearly.

The simplified capacity-based premium license delivers the full Data Protector capabilities in a simplified and predictable solution allowing efficient resource utilization for the complete enterprise data environment.
