What a week it was in London! KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2025 had all the energy of a music festival for cloud-native tech — and it didn’t disappoint. I had the pleasure of hitting the ground with Kevin Jackson and Rodolfo Casas, and right from the start, it felt like we were back with our extended family.

Organizations running cloud-native applications face significant storage management challenges. As research shows, most of these applications require persistent storage capabilities. Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF) offers a complete solution for these storage requirements through its unified platform designed for container environments and virtual machines.

Canonical OpenStack delivers exceptional cloud infrastructure management capabilities for enterprise organizations. The platform integrates Ubuntu’s trusted stability with powerful tools like Juju and MAAS, creating a simple yet effective approach to cloud operations.

We recently had a prospect that wanted to test our image and application recover capabilities, in a multi-cloud architecture. Currently they were using an internal OpenShift image registry to store their images, and they wanted/needed to migrate all their applications to a new cluster, and also wanted to use Red Hat’s quay.io to store the images from now on. This proved a very easy task for Trilio, as when we protect applications, we also protect the images.

Attending Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025 in Barcelona was an exhilarating experience, marking a significant evolution from years past.

With modern businesses increasingly relying on multitenant and multicloud platforms, safeguarding critical data has never been more crucial. Backup as a Service (BaaS) offers a scalable, efficient way to protect valuable assets and ensure business continuity in the face of unexpected incidents.

Traditionally, containers and VMs have operated in separate silos, each with distinct management tools and workflows. OpenShift Virtualization breaks down these barriers, allowing VMs to run alongside containerized applications as native Kubernetes resources. This offers organizations the flexibility to modernize their application stacks incrementally, leveraging existing VM-based workloads while embracing the agility of containers.

Protecting critical business data requires a reliable backup system that works consistently. The grandfather-father-son (GFS) backup rotation offers a structured approach through organized daily, weekly, and monthly backup cycles. The GFS backup scheme creates multiple recovery points, giving businesses flexibility when restoring data after unexpected issues.

Financial organizations across Europe are actively preparing for the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), taking effect in January 2025. Meeting DORA compliance requirements has become essential for financial institutions as they adjust their operations to match new regulatory standards. The legislation brings substantial changes to information and communication technology (ICT) risk management practices, security protocols, and third-party oversight.

In my previous blog post, (OpenShift Virtualization Backup and Restore with Trilio in AWS ROSA Baremetal ) I discussed how to protect VMs running in OpenShift Virtualization, specifically in AWS ROSA Baremetal environments. In this post, I want to focus on how you can recover a VM in less than 3 minutes. When it comes to recovery in Kubernetes environments, many of us feel relatively at ease, especially if the Persistent Volumes (PVs) are not particularly large.
