Arkeia announces certifications for major Linux platforms

Arkeia Corporation, a pioneer in professional Linux backup solutions for heterogeneous networks, announced recently that the just-released version 5.2 of its flagship enterprise software program has passed certification processes for the most widely used commercial Linux distributions. The certifications further strengthen Arkeia's position as the international leader in offerings for Linux network solutions.

The new Arkeia v5.2 is certified for SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server. Arkeia is also fully compatible and certified with the Red Hat Enterprise Server ready program and the Mandrake Linux 9.2 distribution.

Arkeia continues to maintain its position as the first professional network backup solution fully capable of protecting Linux environments of all configurations. It offers the widest coverage in terms of architecture, including x86, Itanium, PowerPC, SPARC and appliances such as Sun Cobalt servers. Arkeia supports a broad range of other operating systems, including Windows, Unix, Mac OS X, NetWare and xBSD.

"We are pleased that Arkeia continues to offer state-of-the-art professional backup answers like its new v5.2," said Uwe Heine, chief alliance officer at SUSE LINUX. "SUSE and Arkeia are committed to deliver certified quality that meets the requirements of our numerous common enterprise customers."

"Arkeia 5.2 easily completed MandrakeSoft's certification and we're delighted to see such a great backup solution available for Mandrake Linux. Arkeia on Mandrake Linux servers provides a solid solution for the rapidly growing corporate market," said Francois Bancilhon, MandrakeSoft CEO.

"Certified solutions are essential for companies working in Linux environments," said Arkeia CEO Phil Roussel. "Through certification, Arkeia guarantees smooth integration into enterprise networks that rely on our backup solutions. We are committed to staying a step ahead of the competition by offering the widest Linux coverage in terms of distribution and hardware architecture support."

Among the strengths of Arkeia's powerful solution is a Linux Disaster Recovery module that provides the ultimate in security. A fully automated disaster recovery process can restore a Linux server from scratch, as well as the backup server itself, if machines are stolen or totally destroyed.
