Addresses growing demand for backup of Kubernetes-hosted VMs.
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on November 15, 2024 at 2:00 pmCloudCasa by Catalogic announced expanded support for KubeVirt, the open-source virtualization platform that enables the management of VMs as Kubernetes-native resources.
This integration allows users to manage the backup and restoration of both VMs and containerized workloads in hybrid environments, enhancing flexibility and operational efficiency.
With this update, the company strengthens its position as a backup solution for both SUSE Harvester and Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, both of which leverage KubeVirt. With a commitment to innovation and customer-focused design, the firm continues to simplify backup management for organizations, reducing operational overhead while ensuring comprehensive data protection.
KubeVirt integrates natively with popular Kubernetes-derived orchestrators, offering an alternative VM hosting solution for organizations looking for alternatives to rising VMware licensing costs in the wake of the Broadcom acquisition. Through familiar Kubernetes tools and APIs, users can create, manage, and remove VMs with ease. Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization delivers an enterprise-grade solution for running VMs on the OpenShift platform, while SUSE Harvester provides a streamlined way to manage VMs within the Rancher ecosystem.
“We’re seeing a significant need for a unified backup solution in hybrid environments where VMs and containers coexist,” said Ryan Kaw, VP, sales. “By expanding support for KubeVirt, Harvester, and Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, CloudCasa offers a powerful, all-in-one solution that simplifies backup processes for organizations running these platforms. Our customers can protect all their workloads, whether running in Harvester, OpenShift, or KubeVirt, with a single, easy-to-use platform.”
CloudCasa’s backup solution helps organizations protect their VMs and containerized applications from data loss while simplifying DR efforts. This latest integration not only streamlines backup management but also enhances business continuity by enabling data mobility between clusters or clouds, ensuring resilience during unexpected disruptions.
