Veritas Net Backup License

One of the best software packages that consumers and companies can use for data backup and recovery is the Veritas Net Backup software and its licenses, also known as Net Backup Symantec. When security giant Symantec bought Veritas for $13.5 billion in 2005, the Net Backup brand changed to Symantec Net Backup. In 2016, when Symantec decided to expand its Veritas division, Net Backup was renamed to Veritas Net Backup License.

Veritas Net Backup software can quickly and accurately back up raw files, directories and partitions on the server and then recover data. A server protected by Net Backup is called a Client. Net Backup software is installed on a server known as a media server. During the backup, the data is sent by the Client across the network to a Net Backup server of the Media type. This allows the server to select the appropriate storage space for backup.

What is the use of Net Backup?

As an enterprise backup product, Veritas Net Backup supports major databases, including Oracle and Microsoft SQL, as well as Microsoft Windows, UNIX, and Linux operating systems. It can store data backups in internal, external and public cloud storage, and also supports VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V. Key features provided by Net Backup include Deduplication, Replication, and Snapshot services.

It was after the separation from Symantec that changes were made in Veritas License. The program has since become known as a data management platform. Net Backup became the core of the Veritas 360 data management suite and one of the key components of the Veritas 360 Information Map. It collects data from data managed by Net Backup, other Veritas applications, and cloud storage to provide an overview of metrics in the admin dashboard.

OpsCenter Analytics

The OpsCenter app was introduced at the same time as Net Backup 7.0. This tool is another key part of Veritas Net Backup. OpsCenter is a web-based monitoring and analysis tool that has full control over customer backup operations. This tool provides the user with important services such as reports to investigate the effects of backup, service usage and costs. Standard OpsCenter reports include Backup, Client, Cloud, Media, Performance, Data Recovery, and Workflow Analysis. OpsCenter Analytics requires a separate license. By ordering and obtaining a special license for this tool, you can create custom reports for network administrators and users.
