Do you have to deal with data protection? Do you usually mess it up? Some people think data protection architecture is broken and requires too many dependencies. By the time a business needs to backup a lot of data, it’s a complex problem to go back in time to retrofit a backup solution for an existing infrastructure.
Fortunately, Rubrik found a way to streamline data protection components. Today, we’re talking to Chris Wahl and Ken Hui of Rubrik.
Some of the highlights of the show include:
- Transform backup and recovery to send data to a public Cloud and convert it to native format
- Add value and expand what can be done with data - rather than let it sit idle
- Easy way for customers to start putting data into the Cloud is to replace their tape environment; people hate tape infrastructure more than their backups
- Necessity to backup virtual machines (VMs) probably won’t go away because of challenges; Clouds and computers break
- Customers leaving the data center and exploring the Cloud to improve operations, utilize automation
- Business requirements for data to have a level of durability and availability
- People vs. Technology: Which is the bottleneck when it comes to backups?
- Words of Wisdom: Establish an end goal and workflow/pathway to get there
