The Azure Backup service is used to back up resources and data in Azure. This can be used for cloud only or hybrid scenarios where you want to back up your on-premises VMs to Azure. Your on-premises backup solution can also be extended to the cloud in conjunction with Azure Backup. Azure Backup is capable of creating backups for VMs, files, folders, applications, workloads, system states, and volumes.
Azure Backup consists of the following features and capabilities:
- Back up on-premises resources to Azure: Azure Backup offers short and long-term backup. This can be a replacement for tape and off-site backup.
- Back up Azure VMs: Azure Backup offers independent and isolated backups. These backups are stored in a Recovery Services vault. This vault has built-in management for recovery points.
- Automatic scaling: You can get unlimited scale without maintenance overheads...
