Kasten by Veeam announces Kasten K10 V5.0

Posted on by admin

Kasten by Veeam, a supplier of Kubernetes backup and disaster recovery, today released Kasten by Veeam K10 V5.0, a purpose-built Kubernetes data management platform.

This current edition, which was created specifically for Kubernetes, focuses on giving a comprehensive risk management strategy, improved CI/CD pipelines, and additional ecosystem advancement elements that help to optimize and de-risk Kubernetes investments. All these improvements are aimed at making the Kubernetes community more efficient and safer in cloud-native applications.

Vice President of Products and Partnerships at Kasten by Veeam, Gaurav Rishi stated, “Our latest release remains focused on helping enterprises minimize the financial impact caused by attacks on data and cloud applications. At the same time, we’re also supporting developer needs for backup solutions that not only integrate with the CI/CD tools they use but pave the way for automation to detect and protect applications as they get deployed.  As ransomware attacks continue to remain the highest concern for organizations, a comprehensive risk management strategy to help continuously identify risk, protect data, detect attacks and deliver disaster recovery for cloud-native applications is crucial.”

The following are some of the new features of Kasten K10 V5.0:

Security all over: Improved platform hardening, including KMS integration with AWS KMS and HashiCorp Vault, as well as the ease of use of Kubernetes-native RBAC objects exposed in UI dashboards, ransomware attack detection with AWS S3 or S3-compatible storage supporting S3 Object Lock, data protection policy guardrails, and support for Veeam-hardened Linux repositories with immutability, provide comprehensive threat protection.

Data protection with a shift to the left: fully integrated add-ons for newly launched Amazon EKS Blueprints, Level III certified Red Hat OpenShift Operator with full lifecycle capabilities, new built-in Kanister blueprints for MS SQL and PostgreSQL Operator, as well as a new Blueprint Editor for a more intuitive and quicker workflow and a new Reports Generator for crucial KPIs, have been added to the Operations UX.

A wider ecosystem: Customers can choose from a growing number of solutions throughout the ecosystem thanks to integrations with industry-leading technologies and platforms, such as Red Hat Marketplace, SUSE Rancher Marketplace, VMWare vSphere with Tanzu, and Falco.

CTO at Veeam, Danny Allan, commented, “Cloud native applications are being developed at a pace never seen before, and with DevOps and shift-left principles, application deployment in Kubernetes is proving faster and far more scalable. Yet, at the same time, backing up Kubernetes applications remains a constant challenge. This latest release provides secure backup and recovery for Kubernetes data and applications while eliminating the complexity in deployment and operations for Kubernetes in the enterprise. As more Veeam customers look to leverage Kubernetes, Kasten K10 V5.0’s ease-of-use will be critical to support data protection and backup in their new environments.”

The NEW Kasten K10 V5.0 features demonstrate Kasten’s commitment to Kubernetes users by combining DevOps and shift-left principles, as well as enhanced protection.

Codenotary launched monitoring for Kubernetes

Posted on by admin

Codenotary has released full-stack monitoring for Kubernetes and VMware vSphere for operations and DevOps teams, allowing them to monitor Kubernetes and virtualized infrastructure in one place. According to the 2021 Cloud-Native Survey, 96 percent of organizations already have or are evaluating Kubernetes, with 5.6 million developers worldwide using Kubernetes. Monitoring is still done separately in many Kubernetes deployments running on virtualized infrastructure, such as VMware vSphere, resulting in multiple information silos that must be connected. Immutable Metrics & Logs provide a comprehensive solution.

Dennis Zimmer, co-founder, and chief technology officer of Codenotary commented, “Our technology delivers the fastest deploy-to-value ratio. With Codenotary Immutable Metrics & Logs, customers see near-instant results from their deployments, whether in the cloud or on-premises. Additionally, we provide the only technology that stores logs and configuration changes that are fully verifiable and auditable, making regulatory and license compliance pain-free.”

Immudb, the only open-source enterprise-class immutable database with data permanence at scale for demanding applications requiring billions of transactions per day, is maintained by Codenotary. Codenotary’s notarization and verification products are built on immudb. Immudb has received over 12 million downloads.

Codenotary offers tools for cataloging and trusting components of the software development lifecycle which help attest to the origin and safety of the code. It further improves this core functionality by providing an additional tamper-proof layer that processes and stores millions of transactions per second, on-premise or as a cloud service, and with cryptographic verification. It allows developers to attach a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for development artifacts such as source code, builds, repositories, and so on, as well as Docker and Kubernetes container images for their software.

Tarun Keswani, principal staff engineer of Motorola Solutions stated, “We were set up and operational in less than 30 minutes providing immediate benefits and insights, highly recommended.”
