Vembu Technologies, a
provider of cloud-based data protection and content management solutions for
managed service providers (MSPs), managed hosting providers (MHPs) and
value-added resellers (VARs), announced the release of StoreGrid Cloud, a
secure managed backup service with a focus on business continuity and disaster
recovery for physical and virtual environments. The company also announced the
release of SyncBlaze, a content management solution designed for small and midsize
businesses (SMBs) to store, share and sync business content.
The addition of StoreGrid
Cloud expands Vembu’s data protection offerings by providing a solution for

their backup and disaster recovery requirements. The StoreGrid Cloud backup
service will automatically protect data on Windows, Linux and Mac environments
with full support for point-in-time recovery of business applications,
databases and virtual platforms, including Microsoft Exchange, Sharepoint, SQL

to recover rapidly in the event of a disaster. “StoreGrid Cloud helps us to
provide a cost-effective backup and disaster recovery solution with a flexible
delivery model supporting on-premise, cloud or a hybrid solutions.” Gilbert
said.

management system while enabling administrative control for partners.
“The release of SyncBlaze
represents a new cloud-based content management solution that is designed for
the needs of SMBs and offered specifically through the channel,” he said.
