Cloud native data management provider Kasten has added a number of new capabilities to its K10 V4.5 release, with its continued push to improve what operations teams experience managing backups, disaster recovery and security for state and stateful applications on Kubernetes.

As the number of edge nodes performing data acquisition and processing for a variety of applications continues to scale, the number of Kubernetes edge clusters and containers increases concurrently.

The idea also is to extend Kasten’s immutability features to support backup in cloud, on-premises and now edge environments so that backed-up applications and data on Kubernetes remains immutable and immediately ready for redeployment in the event of an infrastructure outage or ransomware or another type of attack.

Supporting K3 the superstar edge distribution for Kubernetes (from 0 to 18,000 Github stars in 2.5 years) and EKS Anywhere enables Kasten to provide enterprise-grade Kubernetes services for the edge right as Kubernetes edge use cases are heating up.”

Kasten K10 V4.5 new observability and visualization tools include: Kasten’s improved support for monitoring and observability for DevOps teams tasked with managing applications and deployments on Kubernetes is critical because, “The decentralization of development teams, the distributed character of cloud native apps, the number of product options modern application stacks that can be created, and the implementation differences between otherwise standardized Kubernetes services make observability the number-one topic for enterprises to worry about in 2021,” Volk said.
