About Microlite Corporation

Microlite Corporation has been in business since 1983, and has been committed to the Backup Software Marketplace since 1987.

We're the leader in Bare Metal Disaster Recovery Technology for Linux (IA32 and EM64T/AMD64 architectures), SCO OpenServer 6, OpenServer 5, and UnixWare 7, and we were the first company to bring a commercial bare metal disaster recovery product to market for each of those operating systems, as well as SCO Unix 3.2.x. We are recognized as having the most advanced disaster recovery product available for each of those platforms.

Our backup product contains many advanced features, including...

  • Encrypted Archives. Using a combination of 2048-bit RSA and 256-bit AES encryption, our optional encryption module creates secure archives easily.
  • S3 Backups. Backup servers to the Amazon Web Services Simple Storage Service (S3) web cloud.
  • FTP Backups. Any remote server, device or appliance with an FTP / FTPS  server can be used to store backups.
  • D2D Backups. Removable/spare hard disks can hold multiple generations of archives, and be mounted and unmounted automatically as necessary.
  • Advanced Device Support. Detection, control, support, and diagnostics, including TapeAlert™.
  • Microlite Fast File Restore. The most advanced Quick File Access technology available, it works on SCSI tape drives for all platforms, and also on ATAPI tape drives under Linux and UnixWare.
  • Microlite Instant File Restore™. For CD, DVD, REV™, AWS, FTP and FSP backups. Provides less than 1 second access times when restoring from these Resource types.
  • Full File Checksum Verify. While others stop at bit-level and header checksum verify, BackupEDGE adds a third verify type to ensure that archives can be read reliably months or even years later.
  • SCSI Autochanger/Library Support. No "works with operating system commands" here. Like our Advanced Device Support, we use our own command set, complete with a User API.
  • Remote Device Support. We back up to remote devices on a network as easily as we backup up to local drives. Restore, Fast File Restore / Instant File Restore, and even bare metal Disaster Recovery work just the same as if the device was locally attached.
  • Automatic Device Detection and Setup. During installation, our Setup Wizard automatically detects and configures each of your tape, autoloader and optical devices. You don't even need to know the device name.
  • Multi-Functional User Interface. A single integrated user interface runs in character mode, graphical mode or as a web service allowing remote administration from any Sun Java-equipped broswer.

If you have never used a Microlite backup product, we invite you to download a free, fully functional demo copy from our ftp site, or check out our brochures and technical articles for additional information.

Our products are available from better UNIX and Linux distributors, VARs and dealers throughout the world .

From the President

Thanks for visiting our web site. At Microlite Corporation our daily mission is to provide you with the finest possible products and service.

January 2010 brings BackupEDGE 3.0, a new releases providing exciting new capabilities. Among other improvements, we're breaking new ground with a fantastic new scheduler, and enhanced support for tape drives, REV drives and optical media, including Blu-ray™.

We've recently made some significant improvements to our "FTP Backups" capabilities. If you've tried them before and run into firewall, timeout, or other difficulties, now is a god time to try them out again.

Our engineers have been relentless in keeping up with the changes in newer Linux distributions. Please check out our Linux Support Tables to see what we've been working on, and what's coming up next.

Please feel free to contact me personally with suggestions for improving our products or our company.
