What is Proxmox Backup
----------------------
Proxmox Backup is an enterprise class client-server backup software,
specially optimized for `Proxmox Virtual Environment`_ to backup
:term:`virtual machine`\ s and :term:`container`\ s.
Main features
-------------
:Proxmox VE: The `Proxmox Virtual Environment`_ is fully
supported. You can backup :term:`virtual machine`\ s and
:term:`container`\ s.
:GUI: We provide a graphical, web based user interface.
:Deduplication: Inkremental backup produces large amounts of duplicate
data. The deduplication layer removes that redundancy and makes
inkremental backup small and space efficient.
:Data Integrity: The built in `SHA-256`_ checksum algorithm assures the
accuray and consistency of your backups.
:Remote Sync: It is possible to efficently synchronize data to remote
sites. Only deltas containing new data are transfered.
:Performance: The whole software stack is written in :term:`Rust`,
which provides high speed and memory efficiency.
:Open Source: No secrets. You have access to the whole source tree.
:Compression: Ultra fast `LZ4`_ compression is able to compress
several gigabytes of data per second.
