Kubesafe has announced the general availability of its Kubernetes backup and business continuity software support for NetApp storage systems.

Kubesafe offers Kubernetes data protection solution that does not require intermediate object storage infrastructure or additional hardware.

According to the company, it leverages existing business continuity solutions like NetApp SnapMirror and Snapshot technologies, enabling customers to leverage investment in existing infrastructure for container applications, saving time, effort, and money.

Kubesafe takes an application-centric view of data protection rather than an infrastructure-centric view. It is easy to use, policy-driven, and provides holistic protection for not only application data but also the surrounding artifacts such as code images, services, metadata, and configuration information.

Additionally, Kubesafe enables local and remote backup across the hybrid-cloud, multi-account, and multi-infrastructure environments, thereby increasing customer choice and flexibility.

Kubesafe for standard Kubernetes, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service, and Red Hat OpenShift environments with NetApp Storage System for on-prem and AWS deployment is now available.
