CloudCasa by Catalogic announced the availability of the latest version of its CloudCasa software.
This latest round of updates is designed to enhance data restore capabilities and provide users with unprecedented control over their backup operations.
The latest release of CloudCasa introduces several key enhancements that streamline and simplify data protection tasks for Kubernetes and VM environments, making it easier for users to manage their data recovery and backup processes. These include:
- VM Selection for Backup and Restore: Users can now more easily select specific virtual machines for backup and restore. They also have more control over the state of VMs when they are restored. These features support OpenShift Virtualization, SUSE Virtualization, and KubeVirt VMs.
- Improved PVC Management: Allows specific selection of Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs) for backup and restore. Additional options provide the ability to overwrite existing PVCs during restoration.
- File-Level Restore: Introduces enhanced flexibility in file-level restores, enabling users to restore individual files to existing PVCs, on the original or an alternate cluster.
“With the introduction of these features, CloudCasa has significantly improved the backup and restore experience for our users, particularly with our flexible file-level restore for PVCs,” said Bob Adair, head of product management at CloudCasa. “This update allows users to select specific files for restore, and to easily choose where they should be restored to, even across environments. It's all about giving users more control and reducing the complexity traditionally associated with data recovery on Kubernetes.”
