According to 451 Research, 53% of companies have application recovery point objectives (RPO) of less than 24 hours even for non-critical apps and data \u2013 demonstrating the criticality of backups for all enterprise applications. To solve this, Portworx released PX-Backup, a point-and-click backup and recovery solution for Kubernetes applications. PX-Backup provides IT organizations with an end-to-end backup solution for containerized applications capable of managing container data lifecycles, cataloging relevant metadata, improving visibility of data access, and enabling restoration of full Kubernetes applications. PX-Backup delivers true multi-cloud availability across both stateless and stateful Kubernetes clusters, supporting major block storage systems like Amazon EBS, Google Persistent Disk, Azure Managed Disks, VMWare Storage, Pure FlashArray and any other CSI-compatible storage system. <\/p>\n

“One year ago today, we introduced PX-Backup as a way for enterprises to capture Kubernetes application data, configuration and objects as a single unit, making them easily recoverable and redeployable,” said Murli Thirumale<\/span>, General Manager, Cloud Native Business Unit, Pure Storage. “Today’s release introduces PX-Backup to an even larger audience, including enterprises not using PX-Store, and delivers the best in data protection, data management and data recovery, that our customers have come to expect.”<\/p>\n
