FAQ

How long does it take to deploy a backup appliance?

The PBBA backup appliance comes with pre-installed software-hardware integration, ready to use out of the box, and can be deployed and brought online in 30 minutes.

Which databases does the backup appliance support?

Supports international mainstream databases such as Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, SAP HANA, DB2, Sybase, MariaDB, and Redis, as well as 9 domestic databases including DM, Kingbase, GBase, ShenTong, HighGo, Yunhe Enmo, CS&S, EsgynDB, and Wanli, while also supporting file systems and virtualization platforms. Using source-side global deduplication technology, the volume of transmitted data can be reduced by more than 90%.

How effective is the deduplication of the backup appliance?

Adopts source-side global deduplication technology, reducing transmitted data volume by over 90%, greatly saving storage space and bandwidth.

Does the backup appliance support Xinchuang environments? Which domestic platforms are specifically certified?

Yes. The hot standby cloud backup appliance has passed Huawei Kunpeng technology certification and Xinchuang adaptation certification, and is adapted to 6 domestic CPUs (Kunpeng, Phytium, Hygon, Loongson, Zhaoxin, Sunway; Kunpeng 920 / Phytium FT-2000·S2500 / Hygon C86 / Loongson 3A5000·6000 / Sunway 1621), 10 domestic operating systems (Kylin Software (Kylin), NeoKylin, UOS, openEuler, Zhongke Fangde, Ningsi, Puhua, Deepin, Red Flag, Anolis OS), and 9 domestic databases including DM, Kingbase, GBase, ShenTong, HighGo, Yunhe Enmo, CS&S, EsgynDB, and Wanli. When selecting, it is recommended to distinguish between "can connect" and "certified adaptation by the original vendor" — the former only means communication is possible, while the latter is the native operating combination confirmed by the vendor.

After domestic-platform transformation, can the original backup system still be used?

Re-verification is required. After the CPU and operating system are replaced, the original backup agent may become invalid. You should confirm whether the vendor has adaptation certification for the actual combination of domestic CPU / operating system / database you use, rather than only looking at the phrase "supports domestic innovation." Hot standby cloud adaptation covers 6 domestic CPUs, 10 domestic operating systems, and 9 domestic databases, and supports heterogeneous database replication, enabling parallel protection during the transformation period and then gradual switching.

What models are available for the backup appliance?

The 中科热备 backup appliance belongs to the HBU Backup series and currently includes five models: HBU800, HBU1200, HBU2400, HBU3600, and HBU4800, covering different data scales and performance tiers, allowing model selection based on capacity requirements and business scale. For specific configurations and pricing, please contact us for customization based on your needs.

Which virtualization platforms does the backup appliance support?

Yes. 中科热备 provides agentless backup for mainstream virtualization platforms, covering both international mainstream and domestic virtualization categories: [International Mainstream] VMware vSphere 6.0–8.0 (VADP/VDDK), Microsoft Hyper-V 2016–2022 (VSS/RCT), KVM/oVirt (Libvirt API), Xen/XenServer, Nutanix AHV, Proxmox VE.

Does whole-machine recovery require reinstalling the system and drivers?

No. It supports whole-machine recovery across all scenarios — no need to deploy or configure system environments such as operating systems, applications, and databases, enabling whole-machine disaster reconstruction with business logic across all scenarios, with no need to manually install drivers, change registry information, or configure applications, greatly reducing the difficulty and time required for disaster reconstruction.

Can hosts of different brands recover to each other?

Yes. During disaster reconstruction between the source host and heterogeneous target machines (physical machines, virtual machines, and cloud hosts), driver compatibility adaptation is completed automatically without manual intervention; it supports P2V, V2V, and V2P cross-platform recovery in all directions. Various necessary configurations for the target machine can also be made on the Web console of the disaster recovery system (differential hardware driver configuration, system IP/route configuration, and script configuration), enabling heterogeneous automated disaster reconstruction among servers, virtual machines, and cloud hosts of any brand and technology.
