Description

We're excited to announce the general availability (GA) of application consistent backup for Linux VMs running in Azure by using Azure Backup. This feature helps ensure that your application backup data is transactionally consistent.

In the Azure blog, we have posted demo scripts for popular Linux applications—for example, MySQL and Oracle—and customer success stories for this feature.
