Hybrid Backup Sync 3.0 - QNAP Backup Software (HBS)

HBS 3 consolidates backup, restoration, and synchronization functions into a single QTS app for you to easily transfer your data to local, remote, and cloud storage spaces as a comprehensive data storage and disaster recovery plan. With QuDedup technology that deduplicates the data at the source, the efficiency of multi-version backup to the destination storage is greatly improved while also optimizing storage utilization.

Hybrid Backup Sync features QuDedup technology to deduplicate backup data at the source. With the overall data size reduced, required bandwidth and backup time is also saved. With QuDedup, you can reduce the RPO (Recovery Point Objective) and RTO (Recovery Time Objective) for your backup plan. When tested with a virtualization solution, QuDedup reduced the backup size by 75%.

QuDedup supports block-level deduplication and data encryption on client devices. Deduplicated data is packaged and converted to .qdff files. Instead of viewing the deduplicated .qdff file using the NAS, you can install the QuDedup Extract Tool on your computer (Windows, Ubuntu, or macOS) and restore deduplicated files to their normal status.

After backing up deduped data to a QNAP NAS, remote server, and cloud storage, not only can you restore the .qdff files and view them on your computer, you can also install the QuDedup Extract Tool on your cloud storage to view your backed-up and deduped files - greatly reducing the cloud data transfer cost. Deduped files can also be viewed and opened in File Station.

Hybrid Backup Sync supports multiple version backup to cloud storage and remote NAS and allows you to set the number of backup versions to retain and their retention time. The more versions you back up reduces the risk of data loss.

For first-time cloud migration, hardware appliances from cloud service providers can be used to quickly move terabytes of data, rather than transferring via the bandwidth-limited Internet. Hybrid Backup Sync provides the relink function which can establish a link between the on-premises original and the cloud copy, so you can continue incremental backup or synchronization tasks. This greatly boosts efficiency and makes migration to the cloud much easier.

Hybrid Backup Sync supports the TCP BBR algorithm for congestion control that can greatly improve extranet data transfer speed. Businesses that use hybrid storage solutions can back up or sync their NAS-based files to the cloud with higher transfer speed, making offsite backup more efficient.

Hybrid Backup Sync provides a secure-yet-flexible hybrid cloud backup solution, allowing you to leverage private and public clouds to create a cost-efficient IT environment. In the event of an unexpected error, you can easily restore data from backed-up files on the cloud.

You can back up files from local folders to local, remote, or other storage spaces in only four easy steps. Select a source location, assign a backup destination, set a schedule, and click "Apply". The whole process can be finished in one window without any complicated settings.

While Hybrid Backup Sync performs backup/sync from a QNAP NAS to another NAS/server or the cloud, you should use Qsync - our critically-acclaimed Dropbox-like file sync app - to sync files between a QNAP NAS and user devices (such as desktops, laptops, and mobiles). With centralized management, one- and two-way sync, remote erase, team folders, Space-Saving Mode, and other future-proof functionality, Qsync ensures that your data is quickly and safely synchronized to all your devices and the devices of your team members.

Great to hear a Qnap tutorial that I can understand from an English speaker. One thing I didn't find out about during this talk is why backup/sync will not see normal folders.

HBS is good, but when I configured my 2 10Gb NICs to port trunking to double the bandwidth, HBS3 failed and the remote NASs could not be found. Any comment?

[agyson]

Wonderful video. Quick question. Currently, I use Cloud Drive Sync to sync files with dropbox. And now, Cloud Drive Sync is no longer getting support & updates. If I want to use HBS3, do I have to re-sync files from scratch? Thanks!

[jrkbkk]

It is not clear to me whether HBS 3 can perform directly from QNAP device in one country to another QNAP device in another country. If so, how to go about it directly without a cloud service. Perhaps employing Web DAV or Remote FTP protocols? If any info, please point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

Really great webinar. We are using Qnap at my organisation, and soon will back up to the cloud. This made it less difficult to understand.

Thanks for your video. I want to back up my new QNAP NAS in RAID 0 with 2 drives mirroring my big PC drive and want the drive to purge any deleted files I delete from the main PC, rather than keeping to have loads of copies of removed files, which is the best software for doing this, and being smart enough to detect changes quickly and update the NAS. I am trying Netbak replicator as that is what the website recommends under the TS-x53D model I bought. What is recommended?

how to connect with a open ssh certifcate?

[dorotheamuecke-herzberg]

I would have liked some information on versioning backups

[LastZion]

Hi All, appreciate that this video is a couple years old now, but I've got an old QNAP nas myself. it's the TS-659 pro II running 4.2.6. is HBS 3.0 available on this version? thanks

[DavidM]

Why is it that with HBS, when creating a sync job, you can only have a single folder pair to sync ? If you want anything more, you have to create additional sync jobs. A new sync job for every folder pair.

But, if you create an Active Sync Job, you can have multiple folder pairs.

Thank you very much for your video,
I have a big problem.
I use Nas1 as a backup stream camera and I want to sync Nas1 to Nas2 as the second backup storage, but I received a fail Error, I think it is because of stream recording in Nas1.
How can I solve this problem?

[chrisgeorge]

Great Video, wish I saw this live and got to ask this but I have been running my back ups for a little while now but i am going to run in to a space issues. is there a way to config delete back ups older then x days/ versions? example uses case I take a weekly back up and and after 4 weeks the oldest deletes?

[albaprime]

Is there a way to see which files are currently being transferred? In the old backup version I was able to see this.

[AndrewCortesi]

Great video. Very detailed and helpful. Can someone please tell me the difference between a One-Way Sync job and a standard Backup/Restore job? I believe one uses RSync and the other the RTRR but what are benefits or disadvantages of each? I'm not looking to have versioning of my backups, but I do want to be able to easily restore something (within a limited time) in the event it accidentally gets deleted or is corrupted. Thoughts?

[javadahmadi]

Great video. Thanks! Quick question: when it comes to the two-way sync (NAS to NAS, NAS to external HD, NAS to Cloud), I heard that files can get corrupted because of the two way communication flow. Is this correct? What do you recommend to avoid accidents like that? Thanks
