Kasten announces Kubernetes data management on VMware vSphere and Tanzu
This will enable the company to deliver an easy-to-use, scalable, and secure system for backup and recovery of Kubernetes applications for VMware users.
“Cloud-native applications built on Kubernetes are growing dramatically, and VMware has doubled down on tightly integrating Kubernetes and making containers a first-class citizen in vSphere,” said Gaurav Rishi, vice president of product, Kasten. “The shift to cloud-native microservices has delivered major benefits like scalability, reliability, and agility. However, legacy data management offerings are still stuck with monolithic architectures that are often hardware centric. Kasten K10 addresses that head on, and we are thrilled to work with VMware to meet critical enterprise needs for backup and mobility of modern applications.”
