Veritas Technologies, a global leader in data protection, availability and insights, has announced major updates to its Enterprise Data Services Platform to provide customers with a single platform for all of their cloud environment use cases. 

 

Today’s advancements include the acquisition of HubStor to enable powerful enterprise Backup as a Service capabilities.

 

Veritas is also launching NetBackup 9 with significant new features that simplify operations and provide customers with flexibility and choice for deployment across edge, core and cloud.

 

Greg Hughes, CEO of Veritas, said: “Today, more enterprises than ever rely on cloud services such as Microsoft 365, Slack and Box. But too few companies realise that they are responsible for implementing their own data protection policies for SaaS applications. Adding HubStor to the Veritas portfolio allows customers to protect all their data, now including SaaS data, from a single platform, whether in the cloud, in the data centre or at the edge.”

 

With today’s announcements, Veritas is further cementing its position as the leader in data protection, availability and insights across the multi-cloud. Its Enterprise Data Services Platform supports over 800 different data sources, over 100 different operating systems, more than 1,400 storage targets, and more than 60 different cloud platforms.

 

The acquisition of HubStor enables expanded protection for a variety of SaaS-based applications, including Microsoft 365, Slack, Box and Google Workspace. 

 

HubStor is built on a modern API-first architecture that provides a clear path for integration with the unified Enterprise Data Services Platform to simplify operations and reduce risk as part of a holistic data protection strategy. -- Tradearabia News Service
