Ensuring Efficient Cloud-Native Backup And Recovery
Cloud Native Now, Friday, April 19th, 2024
Efficient cloud-native data protection is essential for business continuity - especially given that, as of mid-2023, 94% of U.S. enterprises use cloud services. In this post, I explain what cloud backup is, what makes a data protection solution 'cloud native' and why they're worth your time.
Cloud-native backup and recovery solutions are the latest instruments for organizations to control and protect cloud data. Legacy backup methods based on manual workflows aren't efficient for cloud services.
A cloud-native data protection solution is designed from the first to be used in the cloud, with an emphasis on optimizing online data transfer, retention and security. Such solutions can integrate with cloud-based workloads and enable effective data backup and recovery of, for example, Amazon EC2 instances.
