Traditional backup methods may rely on scheduled scans, making it easy to miss new changes that occur between scan intervals.

i2Backup employs Disk Block Change Tracking to continuously monitor data changes on Linux servers, enabling minute-by-minute RPO. This means that even if a failure occurs, the data loss window is extremely small, which is especially suitable for business-critical Linux servers (such as databases and application servers) to ensure business continuity.

i2Backup for Linux server supports file-by-file or directory-by-directory recovery from a full machine backup, in scenarios where only some lost files or directories need to be retrieved, there is no need to spend time restoring the entire system, which significantly shortens the recovery cycle. For example, when an employee accidentally deletes a critical configuration file, the file can be accurately extracted directly from the full - machine backup, avoiding long - term business interruption caused by full - volume restoration.

i2Backup for Linux server deeply integrates with databases such as Oracle and SQL Server, ensures that database backups meet consistency requirements and can be directly started and run after recovery. Custom scripts, on the other hand, can adapt to the special backup processes of different databases (such as Oracle's archived log synchronization and SQL Server's transaction log backup). Effectively respond to data logical errors such as database index corruption etc.

When server hardware is completely damaged (such as a motherboard failure), traditional recovery may fail due to incompatible boot modes (differences between UEFI and BIOS) or missing hardware drivers. However, i2Backup for Linux Server can directly boot from blank hardware (bare metal) and perform recovery through LiveCD images and automatic format conversion, without the need for manual adaptation to the underlying environment.

Enterprises often need to migrate servers to new hardware or virtualization platforms (such as from physical machines to VMware). At this time, differences in hardware drivers are often a challenge for recovery. i2Backup for Linux server provides automatic driver injection function, which can automatically identify new hardware models and match drivers, avoiding the cumbersome process of manually searching for and installing drivers, and significantly shortening the migration cycle.

i2Backup employs fingerprint library-based source/target deduplication technology to dramatically reduce backup data volume and storage footprint, lowering total cost of ownership.

i2Backup supports flexible adjustment of backup bandwidth by time period to avoid occupying too much network resources during the business peak period and ensure smooth operation of the production environment, which is especially suitable for massive data backup or bandwidth-sensitive business.

Traditional backups may require pausing applications to ensure data consistency (such as temporarily locking tables during database backups). In contrast, i2Backup adopts an application-layer transparent backup mechanism, which enables the backup process to proceed without stopping applications on Linux servers, thus avoiding business interruptions.

At the same time, the combination of database protection capabilities (e.g., pre/post scripts for Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL) ensures that the backup data is not just a copy of a file, but a consistent state of the application that can be recovered, making it suitable for mission-critical services running 7x24 hours a day.
