Datos IO Recognized in Cloud Data Backup Category in Two Gartner 2017 Hype Cycles for 2nd Straight Year
Datos IO, the application centric cloud data backup company, today
announced that it has been recognized as a Sample Vendor in two Gartner (News - Alert)
reports; "Hype Cycle for Storage Technologies, 2017" and "Hype Cycle for
Cloud Security, 2017." Gartner notes that as more production workloads
migrate to the cloud it has become critical to protect data generated
natively in the cloud, and cited Datos IO in both reports as one of the
select sample vendors in the market. Furthermore, in the 2017 Hype Cycle
for Storage Technologies, Gartner states that cloud data backup is one
of two emerging technologies that "are showing fast movement on the Hype
Cycle and increased adoption."
In both Hype Cycle reports1,2, Gartner states "Cloud data
backup refers to policy-based backup tools that can back up and restore
production data generated natively in the cloud. Such data could be
generated by software as a service applications or by infrastructure as
a service compute services. Backup copies can be stored in the same or a
different cloud location, and various restore/recovery options should be
offered in terms of restore granularity and recovery location."
"We are excited with Gartner's inclusion of Datos IO for the second
straight year in two different Hype Cycles, and we are squarely focused
on owning and dominating the fast-growing cloud data backup market with
our flagship product Datos IO RecoverX," said Tarun Thakur, CEO and
co-founder of Datos IO. "Tiering long-term retention data to the cloud
via an on-premises appliance is not cloud data backup. We believe
Gartner's recognition of Cloud Data Backup on the Hype Cycle validates
the uniqueness of this market opportunity and the critical need for
cloud-native backup and recovery solutions to protect next generation
applications and manage all data generated on-premises or in the cloud."
Datos IO RecoverX is a cloud native data management platform built upon
the cloud-native principle of elastic compute services as the control
plane layer for data movement that is free of any form of media servers,
utilizing industry-first semantic deduplication to drive cost savings on
cloud backup storage, and most importantly being truly application-aware
to enable rich data management services such as search and in-place
analytics on backup data. With the recent RecoverX 2.0 "Hercules"
release, Datos IO now supports enterprise applications deployed on new
data sources including Hadoop-based filesystem repositories and physical
or virtualized Microsoft (News - Alert) SQL Server, and adds significant scale and
platform enhancements for large scale (100+ nodes) application
deployments on non-relational and distributed databases such as MongoDB
and Cassandra.
"The cloud has become a pillar of every organization's infrastructure
and Datos IO has become a trusted solution for enterprises everywhere
with a differentiated solution that delivers data protection @ cloud
scale," said Ned Engelke, CTO, EVOTEK. "Datos IO is an ideal solution
for any organization that needs to protect next generation applications
whether they are running on-premises or in the public cloud."
Today's exciting announcement adds to numerous other milestones for
Datos IO in 2017 including adding NetApp and Cisco (News - Alert) as strategic
investors, acquiring Fortune 500 customers such as the world's leading
ecommerce retailer and the world's leading wireless telecommunication
provider, doubling its customer base in the first two quarters of the
current fiscal year, launching
thir RecoverX v2.0 product, and announcing partnerships and joint
solutions with NetApp,
Cisco,
and VMware.
Most recently, Datos IO launched
its Rebellion Partner Program that delivers to channel partners and
resellers benefits such as simple deal registration, attractive
discounts, marketing support including targeted market development funds
(MDF) and a dedicated partner portal - a complete one-stop shop for
sales, marketing, product and technical resources including product
