Clonezilla is a free, open source partition and hard disk (HDD)/SSD imaging program. It allows individuals and companies to make complete disk images of individual computers or a large quantity of servers, depending on the kind of software selected. These images are useful for a variety of purposes. The most common uses are backups in case of failure and deployment of identical systems across multiple devices, such as when a server cluster is being created.[1] Clonezilla was developed by the National Center for High-Performance Computing software labs in Taiwan.[2]
