File Share Backup
NAKIVO Backup & Replication allows you to back up and recover data stored on NFS and SMB shares on NAS, Windows, and Linux. The file share backups and backup copies can be stored in local or cloud repositories (such as Amazon S3/ Amazon EC2/ Wasabi/ Backblaze/ S3-compatible storage platforms / Azure Blob) and on deduplication appliances (such as HPE StoreOnce).
