\nCustomers Now Have Application Aware, As A Service Data Protection for Physical, Virtual and Container-based Workloads

Boston, Massachusetts, April 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HYCU, Inc.<\/a>, a pioneering enterprise software company specializing in multi-cloud data backup and recovery as a service, today announced the general availability of HYCU Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 for Kubernetes<\/a>, the industry\u2019s first native, as a service solution for Kubernetes workloads. The newest, as a service, cloud-native solution from HYCU gives customers a tightly integrated and application aware solution to protect, manage and recover data across physical, virtual and containers.<\/p>\n

Container-based workloads are on the rise in enterprises. According to initial data from Evaluator Group’s upcoming \u201cSpring 2021 Hybrid Cloud Study<\/i>,” 29% of enterprises are using Kubernetes in a production environment, and another 40% are testing Kubernetes with the goal of progressing Kubernetes into production. With the increase in containers comes a number of challenges to maintain and minimize disruption for IT departments. While there are several approaches to add container data protection processes and procedures to an organizations\u2019 protection plans, container-aware and consistent backup has been emerging, until now.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the use of containers has been on the rise, data protection approaches are still emerging and have not kept pace with the adoption and interest to date,\u201d said Simon Taylor, Founder and CEO, HYCU, Inc. \u201cThe reason is there were really only two approaches organizations were able to use. They treat containers as a separate workload with separate infrastructure and create a siloed data protection process. Or, they use legacy data protection to just protect the persistent storage alone that only addresses a portion of what is required to keep the workload available. Our belief remains that backup and recovery should be delivered as a service, leveraging the platform capabilities and should be as powerful yet easy to use regardless of location, be it be physical, virtual or now containers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n HYCU Prot\u00e9g\u00e9\u2019s<\/a> design and architecture allow for support of all platforms. The first release available today includes Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) with other Kubernetes cloud services following shortly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
