Testimonial: European Space Agency

"We are using Bacula to backup a number of elements. One of them is the data from the SCOS 2000 application (the generic mission control system software of ESA). We also backup multiple environments related to the deployment of the satellite ground segments. We also have a lot of projects being backed up via Bacula: R D and RADAR projects, FOC (Flight Operation Control, i.e. satellite operation planning, and command and control of satellites), and more. We do both full and incremental backup, as well as archives. We are very satisfied with Bacula. The software offers us a consistent, reliable, and powerful platform, and all of this without licensing costs."
