Catalogic Enhances CloudCasa with Expanded Volume Type Support and Cloud Integration Enhancements

CloudCasa by Catalogic announced enhancements to its CloudCasa platform.

These updates focus on advanced backup capabilities, extended Azure support, and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) features, addressing the complex needs of diverse Kubernetes environments.

The company provides enterprises with the ability to scale their businesses with multi-cluster management across all Kubernetes distributions and hybrid cloud environments. By delivering the benefits of open source and SaaS management, with no vendor lock-in, CloudCasa addresses management, governance, and compliance requirements for Kubernetes data protection and DR.

Enhancements to CloudCasa include:

• Enhanced backup capabilities for non-snapshot environments: It supports the backup of Persistent Volumes (PVs) without the need for snapshot capabilities. This customer-driven update provides multiple methods for ‘live backup’, allowing users to handle PVs in environments where traditional snapshot technologies are not supported. This flexibility is crucial for organizations using less sophisticated storage solutions, ensuring data consistency and protection across all Kubernetes deployments.
• Extended Azure support with Azure Arc and Government cloud storage compatibility: In response to the growing demand for versatile cloud solutions, the company has expanded its integration with Azure, offering full support for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters. This simplifies the management of hybrid and multi-cloud environments, making CloudCasa a solution for organizations with complex infrastructure. It supports Azure Government cloud storage, ensuring that U.S. government agencies and their partners can leverage robust and secure cloud storage capabilities.
• Amazon EKS enhancements: The company has advanced its support for Amazon EKS, focusing on security and management efficiency. New features include control of automatic encryption of Kubernetes secrets using customer specified KMS keys, and enhanced backup and restore capabilities for IAM roles and Amazon EC2 launch templates. These updates streamline the process of migrating and replicating EKS clusters, ensuring secure and compliant operations.

“Our latest updates to CloudCasa give customers much more flexibility in the types of environments they can protect, migrate, and replicate, and also expand on our already class-leading support for automatic Kubernetes cluster creation,” said Bob Adair, head, product management. “We’re excited to get these new features into the hands of our users. They further enhance the comprehensive suite of tools provided by CloudCasa that give customers the ability to protect their complex Kubernetes environments, in the datacenter, in the cloud, and at the edge.”
