RuBackup 2.1 with additional features for working with PostgreSQL

RubecapAstra Group On May 30, 2024, the company "" (included in "") announced the release of an updated version of the RuBackup 2.1 backup system. In this release, the developers have made many improvements and features that improve performance, functionality and usability.

The changes affected a number of aspects in the system: improved performance when transferring backups to server the Republic of Kazakhstan, added capabilities for working with, PostgreSQL released an updated web interface for managing RuBackup RMS, the ability to use snapshots for backup file systems and other features.

Thus, due to the increase in the number of parallel network connections of the client to the server, as well as parallel processing of data to the server, the process of transferring backups to the server began to be carried out much faster. Faster backup also improves the overall performance and efficiency of the RMS, which is especially important when working with large amounts of data.

The ability to use LVM and dattobd snapshots to create consistent file system (FS) backups, which appeared in RuBackup 2.1 RMS, allows you to create snapshots of the FS in a state that guarantees the invariability of data during the backup process.

Advanced capabilities for incremental backup of PostgreSQL DBMS. Adding Ptrack, Delta and Page modes to create a differential database backup PostgreSQL improves its flexibility and speed. Added support for backing up and restoring the version of the PostgreSQL 16 DBMS, as well as monitoring the integrity of the WAL (Write Ahead Log) chain of files during backup. WAL files contain records of all changes in the database. The leading node in the Patroni PostgreSQL cluster during backup is now determined automatically. It also became possible to backup and restore PostgreSQL using server less technology: the updated module, in addition to the usual backup transfer modes, can interact directly with S3 storage, bypassing the backup server.

Developed and included in RuBackup 2.1 web interface Tucana - web version of the main tool for RuBackup administration. Unlike the native version of RBM, the web application runs in a regular browser and uses the REST API.

Customers who have several instances of RuBackup BOP installed will find useful options. Added functionality to move (export and import) backups between independent backup tools installations.

Starting with the RuBackup 2.1 RMS version, for subsequent versions of the product, compatibility between the server and client parts will be ensured with the possibility of lagging the client version by one step, that is, the client part of the RuBackup 2.1 RMS will be compatible with the server part 2.1 Update 1, the client part of RuBackup 2.1 Update 1 will be compatible with the server part RuBackup 2.1 Update 2, and so on. This functionality has been introduced to enable seamless incremental updates to the backup system without the need to update all of the RMS components at the same time. However, server grouping components (primary server, standby server, and media server) must be upgraded to the same required version.

A number of improvements are available in experimental mode. This means that they underwent design testing, but were not subjected to a full functional and load test. Among such changes are the analysis of the occupied space and the cleaning of journals. RuBackup 2.1 can be installed with both a new installation and an update with RuBackup 2.0 Update 3.

RuBackup 2.0 Update 3 with the role "Information Security Auditor"

Rubekap (part of Astra Group), March 27, 2024 announced the release of an updated release of the RuBackup 2.0 Update 3 (2.0U3) backup system (RBK).

After the release of the previous version of RuBackup 2.0 Update 2, which took place in December 2023, the developers implemented a number of additional functions. Thus, in the multi-user role model of RuBackup RBM, a separate role has appeared for information security specialists "Information Security Auditor." Users with this role have access to a log that records all events that occur in the backup system.

One of the key features of the release is the limitation of the use of RAM by the RMS client with a full backup. Thanks to this optimization, the backup system on the client works more stably and does not interfere with other applications, even with a large amount of backup resources.

The updated version has expanded the list of supported virtualization platforms based on oVirt. Now RuBackup 2.0U3, along with oVirt and RED Virtualization, supports backup and recovery of virtual machines created on the zVirt platform.

The developers have proposed new backup scenarios using RuBackup. In this version, RuBackup Manager is available to run not only in, Linux but also in experimental mode, in, and the operating system Microsoft Windows RuBackup Key component has been updated, which allows you to perform Bare-metal recovery functions. This is the process of recovering a system from a complete failure, including resuming health, operating system applications, data, and configurations to a new, bare-metal hardware media without having to pre-install any or OS. ON

In addition to additional features, the developers have improved the existing capabilities of RuBackup. Now the user can select not one, as before, but several folders or files as a resource for backing up file systems. Also, RuBackup 2.0U3 has improved the mechanism for determining the network interface for communication with the media server.

File:Aquote1.png
In this release, we not only added innovative features and expanded the list of supported virtualization platforms, but also significantly improved the user experience and data security. These enhancements, built on valuable feedback from our customers, underscore our commitment to providing modern and secure domestic backup and recovery solutions. We are pleased to be able to help our customers protect critical data in any situation, "said Andrei Kuznetsov, CEO of RuBackup.

Rubackup 2.0 Update 1 with VMware vSpher Virtualization Platform Virtual Machine Protection Module

On October 17, 2023, RuBackup (part of Astra Group) announced the release of the Rubackup 2.0 Update 1. Astra Group of Companies announced this on October 17, 2023.

In its current version, the developers implemented a number of changes regarding both the general stability of the product and the expansion of its functionality.

RuBackup has a module for protecting virtual machines on the virtualization platform VMware vSphere. It supports all possible backup methods: full, incremental and differential and works with two vSphere transport modes: NBD (Network Block Device) and HotAdd.

In the first version, a network connection is used to transfer data between the vSphere platform and the backup client acting as a proxy. Data is read from the virtual machine disk using VMware ESXi, transmitted over the network to the client, and only then also transmitted over the network to the media server for storage. HotAdd mode allows you to connect virtual machine disks directly to the backup client and read the data that needs to be protected without using the network, and then transfer it over the network to the media server.

In addition, the product now has the ability to back up and restore the platform's virtual machines to create and manage the OpenStack cloud infrastructure. The new module supports full, incremental and differential backups.

Another key improvement is the emergence of a module for DBMSreenplum Database and Arenadata DataBase based on PostgreSQL. The presented RuBackup module supports their full and incremental backup and interacts with the standard Greenplum backup and recovery utilities gpbackup and gprestore.

RuBackup 2.0 U1 has improved the functionality responsible for working with the PostgreSQL DBMS itself. Now you can restart backup tasks when working with a Patroni cluster that provides high availability and fault tolerance, and databases automatically switch clients DB to a replica if the primary cluster node is not available. The changes included Switchover - scheduled switching of cluster node roles and Failback - returning the main cluster node to operation after a failure. Backup has also become available both exclusively from the main Patroni node, if the corresponding configuration is enabled, and from a synchronous replica. All these features can be used to work with the Tantor Special Edition 15 DBMS from the developer "Tantor Labs," compatible with RuBackup.

Significant improvements also include stabilizing RuBackup interaction mechanisms with tape libraries, increasing the level of fault tolerance of the system server, expanding the functionality of the cluster group of backup clients, adding remote replication tools and other tools. Improvements offered by product users during operation were implemented.

Significant improvements also include stabilizing the operation of the RuBackup interaction mechanism with tape libraries and the remote replication mechanism, increasing the level of fault tolerance of the system server, expanding the functionality of the cluster group of RK clients in the PostgreSQL DBMS module, as well as the emergence of other new tools.

Rustek.VDI Compatibility

RUSTEK confirmed on October 4, 2022 the compatibility of the RuBackup backup tools complex and the RUSTEK virtualization platform. Using a joint solution, you can ensure the safety of virtual machines and information, as well as reduce the burden on resources and optimize the work of system administrators.

The results of the checks confirmed that ON RuBackup it is integrated the RUSTEK virtualization platform, and the agentless backup of virtual machines, is correct. The use of RuBackup allows platform users to ensure safety data and their prompt recovery if necessary.

Agentless backup gives users several options at once. In particular, you can work with virtual machines as a single object and without binding to the number of documents and directories on the host, as well as to the version of the guest OS that the file system uses: the absence of an agent means that problems with support for a particular platform will not arise. At the same time, the use of the software stack helps to reduce resource utilization. To relieve the load from the corporate network, it is possible to use separate data transmission channels between RUSTEK software and RuBackup. Another important point is that with agentless copying, the labor required to maintain the infrastructure is reduced: you do not need to install the backup agent on the guest OS of each virtual machine, and then keep its version up to date with all users.

RuBackup Release 1.9

On May 17, 2022, Rubecap announced the release of RuBackup 1.9.

Image:RuBackup 1.9.png
RuBackup 1.9

According to the company, RuBackup is a scalable multi-platform client-server application for automated backup creation. Its application allows you to ensure the safety of user and domain data, automated desktops, virtualization systems, etc., as well as promptly recover information after disasters. The main areas of product use are virtual infrastructures, databases, physical servers, data centers and cloud services.

In RuBackup 1.9, it became possible to make backups on a separate host not included in the RMS, and place copies on dedicated devices (disks, flash drives) or in a network file system (NFS, CIFS). The process starts both on schedule and at the request of the user. Stand-alone storage is mounted only for backup.

In addition, the developers have implemented a role model for accessing system administration. The superuser is authorized to change any settings, and the supervisors are authorized to change all parameters except global parameters that determine the key performance characteristics of the recovery boiler. Maintainers can manage devices that store backups for specific media servers, and the rights of regular administrators can be restricted so that they control only a specific group of clients.

Based on the rules of the global schedule or backup strategies, the user himself determines priorities for tasks, and they act within the framework of one client. First, more important tasks are performed, and after them - those whose significance is less. The system processes tasks from different clients regardless of priorities, which eliminates downtime in its work.

This version of the product has functionality for agentless backup and recovery of virtual machines in an Aerodisk AIST virtualization environment with support for deduplication and remote continuous replication of critical virtual machines to an independent complex.

Data From backups, RMS administrators can restore centrally to the client without participating. This option can be disabled when the restore information enters the client's area of ​ ​ responsibility or in order not to accidentally damage the operating system by starting the process.

RuBackup 1.9 has added modules for backing up DBMS SQL for Linux, SQLite, Tarantool, PostgreSQL 13, as well as a module for copying and restoring objects located in the S3 cloud.

Several media servers can be included in the RuBackup server grouping to distribute the load between them, and automatic balancing functionality is provided for the newly created tasks. Backup storage pools can be combined into a special dynamic group on one or more media servers. It is possible to create several such groups and define critical parameters for them, in which the system will use one of the most free pools on the least loaded server to perform the task.

File:Aquote1.png
RuBackup is included in the registry of the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation, the solution is compatible with the OS, the Astra Linux virtualization system and other domestic platforms, as well as with Russian DBMS and many import-independent software and hardware products.

Compatibility with "Aerodisk"

On March 23, 2022, Rubekap and Aerodisk announced the successful completion of compatibility tests of their solutions.

The project provided for ensuring client-server that the solution for backup Rubackup works together with and. hyperconverged system "vAIR airfield" ON virtualizations STORK

Source: www.microsys.qa

The need for an external backup tool in Aerodisk vAIR and AIST has always existed, since it was originally planned to use third-party tools when creating them. As built-in backup capabilities, they implement only snapshots and cloning.

At the time of the release of the products, there were no ready-made "boxed" means of high-quality backup and air machines based on KVM, which could be used as a standard in Aerodisk solutions. Only open source tools that do not solve the problem were presented in the industry.

Aerodisk specialists developed their own solution, but at the same time the company monitored the development of the RuBackup project, which quickly took shape in a full-fledged Enterprise-level backup system.

In addition to high-quality VM backup on KVM, the necessary functions are available in it: in particular, support for backup to tape media, in-line deduplication.

"The team and expertise of the Rubekap team are firmly rooted in the domestic market, and we were familiar earlier from many IT projects in Russia. Compatibility testing passed quite quickly and its finalization takes place in March 2022. Further, we plan to hold a number of educational events on the new functionality of our products, after which the basic version of RuBackup will be included in the distributions "Aerodisk vAIR" and "AIST," and will also be delivered as part of the PAC "Aerodisk Machine-V,"

RuBackup 1.7 Release

On September 29, 2021, Astra Group of Companies, a developer of a software solution for backing up RuBackup products, announced the release of RuBackup 1.7.

The solution provides full, incremental and differential backup of virtual machines and templates based on Unix-like systems, including OCAstra Linux. The product is included in the "Unified Register of Russian Programs for Electronic Computers and Databases" Ministry of Digital Development Russia.

The updated version of RuBackup 1.7 Recovery Boiler includes the function of inline global deduplication - the ability to place created copies in block devices (disk, RAID, LUN SHD) with space saving. The system can have multiple deduplication pools with different characteristics (block size, algorithm, and hash function length). When creating a copy, only those blocks that are most likely not yet in deduplicated storage are transferred to the server, which saves time during backup and recovery of data. 

Multiple RMS clients can now be combined into a single cluster. If the client is unavailable, the copy will be performed on another client that is part of the group. The feature is intended for infrastructure cluster configurations where the data source is available on all nodes of the cluster and when it is necessary to provide a backup process for the cluster as a whole, regardless of the availability of a node.

RuBackup 1.7 supports backup of the Oracle database management system on Linux, as well as compatibility with two operating systems at once: Oracle Linux and Rosa Enterprise Linux (Server and desktop).

Identifying clients by Hardware ID now allows backup clients to have the same host names.

RuBackup 1.7 has added modules for copying and restoring individual tables and databases PostgreSQL, as well as modules that allow you to back up the configuration of the CommuniGate Pro server and create backups of user directories with the possibility of granular recovery of letters.

Continuous remote replication reduces recovery time to a few minutes. During this process, all changes to the data source are transferred to the standby host or backup virtual machine and applied to the backup data source. To restore, you only need to give access to it, for example, enable the virtual machine where the data was replicated, or change the IP address of the backup host to provide access to file resources.

Added full-featured server and client parts for the Elbrus platform. Now it is possible to build heterogeneous systems, where different platforms in a single server grouping can be used to operate backup servers.

Compatibility with Cobalt OS

As part of the technological partnership, the companies STC IT ROSA RuBackup also tested for compatibility of their products, confirming the correctness of the backup RuBackup software solution for operating system DEW COBALT STC IT ROSA production. Testing was carried out in a virtual environment, based on the results of the tests, a two-way certificate of compatibility was formed. This was announced on August 2, 2021 by STC IT ROSA. More. here

Compatible with Postgres Pro version 13

On April 20, 2021, Rubekap announced that, together with Postgres Professional, it had completed a set of compatibility tests for its software solutions.

The results of the test showed that the backup module works correctly with the target resource and is suitable for operation. As of April 2021, RuBackup supports full and differential backups of any database clusters Postgres Pro version 13. The reliable operation of the software stack allows users to ensure the safety of information by choosing the most suitable copy mode for their tasks, as well as significantly save time and memory of the equipment.

Thanks to the integration of Postgres Pro solutions into RuBackup, it was possible to implement differential backup in three different modes: DELTA, PAGE and PTRACK.

DELTA assumes reading all files in the directory and generating a differential copy for pages changed since the previous copy.

In PAGE mode, a differential backup is created with WAL files recorded after the previous full or differential copy, and only those pages that have been changed are read from the files.

PTRACK is a differential backup scenario with pages whose changes were monitored in real time.

This variability of settings provides two significant advantages for the end customer. On the one hand, it is always possible to choose the optimal backup rules for each specific task, and on the other, it significantly saves the equipment memory consumed.

{{quote "Good test results after a set of compatibility tests, which showed that the backup module works correctly with the target resource, confirm the success of our collaboration. I would like to note the importance of developing the ecosystem around the Postgres Pro DBMS.
