The choice for persistent storage for your cloud native applications depends on many factors including how your cloud journey started and whether your applications were migrated or developed for the cloud. Also, depending on how early you started using containers and migrated to Kubernetes, your distribution or managed service may not have offered the persistent data services you needed.
CloudCasa™, a simple, scalable, cloud-native data protection service that supports all leading Kubernetes distributions and managed services, is now generally available through the SUSE Rancher™ Apps & Marketplace. With increasing adoption of cloud database services, CloudCasa adds cloud database support starting with Amazon RDS to its Kubernetes data protection service – addressing both Kubernetes and RDS support in a single data protection service.
Why you Need Data Protection for Kubernetes Now that you have SUSE Rancher managing your Kubernetes applications, you need to consider how to further protect your application data. While Kubernetes is designed to provide a zero-downtime environment, service interruptions can happen, as well as human and programmatic errors and of course the dreaded ransomware and cyber-attacks.
Would your team benefit from a simple and easy to use Kubernetes backup service that does all the hard work for you to backup and protect your multi-cloud, multi-cluster, applications and cloud native databases? A cloud-based service so easy to use that even developers won’t mind managing backups?
As a developer of copy data management and data protection products for 20+ years, Catalogic Software has considerable experience in securing and protecting our customers’ data. For our new CloudCasa backup service for Kubernetes and cloud native databases, security is built into every step of the service using a modern DevSecOps approach. In addition, we are adding new capabilities to meet specific enterprise security and data custodian and governance requirements.
We discussed in previous blogs the need for data protection for Kubernetes and what’s different about CloudCasa. CloudCasa was designed to address the gap in data protection and disaster recovery that exists in all the leading Kubernetes distributions and managed cloud services. Further, another pain point that CloudCasa addresses is that your cloud-based applications may well be hybrid and multi-cloud applications that use both container-based storage and serverless databases.
