Symantec Backup Exec 2014

Hello to all,

I am an intern in a mining company and we want to use a cloud backup solution as we have many small sites spread all over the world. So we are trying to find a solution that meets our needs. After searching about cloud solutions I found Symantec backup exec.cloud. I would like to inform me (if anyone knows) backupexec.cloud is a feature of Symantec backup exec 2014 or is it a product by itself? Furthermore, do we have to rent a space on a cloud company in order to store our data there? Does Symantec offers space for our data if we buy the backupexec.cloud?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

 

Backup Exec .Cloud is/has been shut down. Backup Exec 2014 will backup to a cloud environment.

Hello,

I have donwloaded the technical whitepaper for cloud and it says that "When installing and configuring a cloud Backup Exec server, the "Private cloud server"option should be selected in the Storage tab on the Backup Exec central administration server user interface". Well, I cannot find the "Private cloud server" option on the Storage tab.

Thanks in advance,
