CloudCasa by Catalogic, a leader in multi-cloud application resilience and mobility for Kubernetes, announced that CloudCasa now supports the Red Hat OpenShift APIs for Data Protection Operator that installs Velero on Red Hat OpenShift clusters for Kubernetes backups. CloudCasa addresses management, governance, and compliance requirements for Kubernetes data protection environments by combining the benefits of open source and SaaS management.
In cloud-native environments, open source has become the preferred choice for operational tools; especially true for Kubernetes environments where Velero and Red Hat OpenShift APIs for Data Protection have become the default data protection options. Red Hat OpenShift APIs for Data Protection provides APIs with the ability to backup and restore Red Hat OpenShift cluster resources, internal images and persistent volume data. The Red Hat OpenShift APIs for Data Protection Operator installs Velero and Red Hat OpenShift plugins for Velero to use for backup and restore operations.
“CloudCasa can now manage Red Hat OpenShift APIs for Data Protection for existing Velero installations, centrally cataloging configurations and recovery points, rather than requiring migration to an alternative,” said Jeff Brent,Director of Product Management, Red Hat. “CloudCasa for Velero provides these users with both Red Hat OpenShift and non-OpenShift Kubernetes distributions with the ability to use the same tool and management platform for enhanced data protection capabilities.”
Red Hat is a contributor to Velero, sponsoring many key features and maintaining Red Hat OpenShift APIs for Data Protection alignment with the upstream Velero project. CloudCasa is one of the active contributors, alongside VMware and Red Hat, in addressing open forum questions and helping customers on-board with Velero.
