We now support on-premises as well as cloud storage. Host your backups and archives within your premises, at your DR sites, or within a cloud environment. And get all the control you need to meet the extended security, compliance, and risk reduction needs of regulated industries.

Enhancements

Continued updates to the UI

We’ve continued updates that we started in the UI with our March release. Again – there are no changes to where you’ll find content in the UI – just our updated look and feel with fonts, colors, buttons, and more.

Email notifications with job status in the subject line

Until now, when you received a Vault job status notification from us, you had to read the body of the email to find out what it would refer to. Now you’ll be able to quickly read the status line and select for immediate reading those that most need your attention.

Some button naming changes: Full Restore to EZ Restore – Full Replicate to EZ Replicate

1. EZ Restore (formerly Full Restore) enables restoration from a backup of all content from a selected backup. No functionality changes.
2. EZ Replicate (formerly Full Replicate) simplifies all the content from a backup set with just a few clicks. Again, no functionality changes.

Support for additional FinancialForce Metadata types

We’ve added support for some previously unsupported FinancialForce metadata types – (Layout, QuickAction, CustomObject, DuplicateRule).

Vault 21.1

Release: 25 March 2021

The first thing you’ll notice with this new release is our updated look and feel.   You’ll find all your familiar tools and features available – but with updated fonts, colors and logos.  We hope you’ll like it.

Elsewhere you’ll find new capabilities for using Google Cloud Platform (GCP) storage, enhanced support for Azure retention policies, and restore/replication functionality for non-required parents.

New Features

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) storage support for Vault

You can now use GCP storage for backups. Options available are to use either AutoRABIT’s hosted storage on GCP or your own GCP storage environment.

Enhancements

Application Rebranding 

Here’s a quick look at the updated UI and branding changes you’ll see in the product. Again – there are no changes to where you’ll find content in the UI (except for the new features below) – just our updated look and feel:

• Login/ Logout screens
• Logos
• Application fonts 
• Application colors

Restore/Replicate parents with relationship lookups

We’ve now added the capability to restore or replicate any non-required parents. To do this, select them from the schema before running a restore/replicate job.

Retention policy enhancements for Azure  

With our January release, we added the capability to configure the Azure Blob Retention Policy for Azure-hosted backups from within the Vault UI to meet your retention requirements.

We’ve now enhanced this feature with the capability to define retention periods in previously existing Azure Blob-hosted backups or archives to start using retention periods.  Keep in mind that once you’ve applied a retention policy, your backups will no longer be available after the retention period has expired.
