Architecture

NAKIVO backup topology

A lightweight director with distributed transporters, chosen where licensing cost and footprint matter as much as feature depth.

FAQ

NAKIVO questions we are asked

Where does NAKIVO fit against Veeam?
Smaller estates and budget-sensitive deployments where a compact appliance-style install and lower licence cost outweigh the broader ecosystem of a larger platform.
Can it run on a NAS?
Yes. Installing the director and transporter directly on a supported NAS removes a dedicated backup server, which suits single-site environments.
Does it support policy-based protection?
Yes. Jobs can match by name, tag, size or location, so newly created VMs are picked up without editing jobs by hand.
How is recovery time kept short?
Instant recovery boots the workload straight from the repository while the full restore runs in the background, then migrates it back to production storage.
