![]() It was here we began to solve use cases around physical Microsoft Exchange with log truncation and VM protection with physical Raw Device Mappings. We addressed this issue in Rubrik Alta 4.2 with Full Volume Protection (FVP), which allowed administrators to backup and restore complete Windows volumes, including system drives and state. While this functionality is great at providing support for dump-and-scrape backups or protecting a large set of user-created files, complete system recoveries led to lengthier RTOs. We dipped our toes into physical data protection with our third product release, which offered options for administrators to backup on a fileset level. Rubrik’s Road to Bare Metal RecoveryĪt Rubrik, we designed our platform to be a unified solution that can protect data regardless of where it lives. Rubrik Andes 5.0 seeks to break down these abstraction challenges, providing end-to-end protection around physical Windows servers. Decoupling data from physical servers and providing an image level, or Bare Metal Recovery (BMR), restore process is much harder without the layer of abstraction hypervisors provide. However, physical servers also present some of the toughest challenges when it comes to data protection. ![]() For many organizations, these physical systems are hosting some of their most mission-critical applications, which means ensuring protection is a business necessity. While the rage of late has been a shift into more agile and efficient operating models based on DevOps principles, infrastructure-as-code, virtualization, and cloud, the reality is that organizations are still relying on physical on-premises infrastructures to provide services. ![]()
