NAKIVO Backup & Replication uses VMware VM snapshots to create VM backups. When a backup job is run, the product automatically creates temporary VM snapshots of backed up VMs, identifies changed data using VMware CBT technology, sends data to the backup repository, and then removes the temporary snapshots.
All backup jobs in NAKIVO Backup & Replication are forever incremental. This means that after the initial full backup, all consequent backups will send only changed data (increments) to the backup repository. With this approach. this approach also reduces the backup time and network load.
