Aelita Software

Aelita Software Corporation was an enterprise systems-management software company founded in 1998 by Ratmir Timashev (who later co-founded Veeam Software). Headquartered in the Columbus, Ohio area (Dublin/Powell, OH), Aelita built Windows infrastructure management tooling for Microsoft Active Directory and Microsoft Exchange environments — including migration, directory management, auditing, reporting, security analysis, systems monitoring, and disaster recovery. Marquee products included Migration Manager for Active Directory, Migration Manager for Exchange, Secure Copy, Enterprise Reporter, Recovery Manager for Active Directory, ActiveRoles Server, and InTrust. Insight Partners was an early investor. Aelita was acquired by Quest Software in March 2004 for approximately $115 million and its technology was folded into Quest's Windows Management line (much of which is now part of One Identity). The company has had no independent operation since 2004; it exposed no public developer API, developer portal, or documentation surface, and there is no live web presence today (the aelita.com domain is parked/for sale). This profile is retained as a historical Insight Partners portfolio record — there is no active developer surface to enrich.

Aelita Software is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Systems Management, Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange, and Windows Management.
