Actiphy Announces ImageServer for Centralized Backup Storage and Post-Backup Processing
～New platform combines centralized backup management, Inter-File Deduplication, automated workflows, and remote replication.～
Wildomar, CA — October 26, 2026 — Actiphy™, Inc., a leading provider of backup, disaster recovery, and virtualization software, today announced Actiphy ImageServer™, a centralized platform for storing, managing, verifying, and replicating backups created with ActiveImage Protector™.
ImageServer combines the backup image management capabilities of Actiphy ImageCenter™ with the secure storage capabilities of Actiphy StorageServer™. By moving post-backup operations such as Verify, Replication, Consolidation, and BootCheck™ to a dedicated server, ImageServer reduces processing load on protected servers and PCs and simplifies backup administration.
As organizations protect more systems and retain more backup generations, storage requirements and administrative overhead keep growing. ImageServer addresses these challenges by centralizing backup storage and management via a Web-based console and automating post-backup processing.
Key Features of Actiphy ImageServer™
- Inter-File Deduplication™ — Identifies common data blocks across backup images in the same bucket and reuses previously stored data to reduce storage requirements. In Actiphy testing, storage usage dropped by about 71% for uncompressed backups and by about 54% for backups using ActiveImage Protector deduplication and compression. Actual results vary by environment.
- Workflow™ Automation — Automates Verify, Replication, Consolidation, and BootCheck tasks and allows administrators to define processing order and execution windows.
- Remote and Cloud Replication — Supports network shares, FTP/FTPS, SFTP, WebDAV, Amazon S3, and compatible storage, including Wasabi and Microsoft Azure.
- Verify and BootCheck — Helps administrators routinely verify backup integrity and confirm that backup images are bootable on supported Hyper-V hosts.
- Centralized Monitoring and Recovery — Provides visibility into storage usage, connected clients, transfer speeds, task status, events, and history. Image Browser enables file-level recovery.
- Security and Notifications — Supports HTTPS, user authentication, TOTP-based two-factor authentication, event notifications, and scheduled summary reports.
- Included for ActiveImage Protector Users：
Actiphy ImageServer is available free of charge to ActiveImage Protector users.
Actiphy ImageServer provides organizations with a centralized way to manage backup storage, reduce redundancy, automate post-backup processing, and improve recovery readiness.
