Centralized Management
Azure Backup is easy to use with simple installation and configuration. Additionally, on-premises and cloud backups are centralized in the Backup Center or Recovery Services Vault. This makes it possible for businesses to configure and monitor backup policies from a central console.
Automated Backup Policies
With Azure Backup, organizations can set up automated backup policies to schedule regular backups of their resources. This feature helps ensure that backups are taken consistently without manual intervention, eliminating the risk of human error.
Application Consistency
Azure Backup guarantees the app-aware capture of application backups, such as databases, in a coherent state. Such app-consistent backups capture memory content and pending input-output operations, diminishing the likelihood of data corruption during recovery.
Long-Term Retention
Long-term retention can be enabled for Azure services like the SQL Database and Azure SQL Managed Instance. Organizations can then define retention policies to keep backup data for extended periods and meet compliance and regulatory requirements.
Hybrid Backup
Azure Backup supports hybrid backup processes by providing organizations with on-premises storage and public cloud as data backup destinations. The hybrid backup feature allows users to protect on-premises resources through the Azure Backup Agent.
