Minimize downtime and data loss after ransomware attacks. Cohesity Disaster Recovery as a Service is available immediately with enhanced recovery capabilities from Cohesity SiteContinuity.
Just months after releasing its Backup as a Service (BaaS) solution, Cohesity, a leading provider of data management solutions, announced the general availability of Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS). This new offering extends the recovery capabilities of Cohesity SiteContinuity.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) as the restore location
In addition, Amazon Web Services (AWS) can be used as a recovery location for failover and failback in a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. This not only offers customers more choice and flexibility, but also the following advantages:
- Minimizing downtime and data loss: The risks of downtime and data loss are significantly reduced through snapshot-based backups and near-sync replication. This ensures that all data is captured and available for failover in the event of a disaster or cyber attack.
- Fulfillment of Service Level Agreements (SLAs): Customers can easily design recovery plans and assign SLAs in minutes. They thus provide the right level of reliability for a wide range of applications and meet all business requirements.
- Simplify operations: Cohesity uniquely combines disaster recovery orchestration, snapshot-based backup, near-sync replication and seamless failover via the public cloud in one comprehensive service. Everything is managed through a single user interface to make disaster recovery processes much easier.
- Cost reduction and time-to-value optimization: Companies avoid costs for unused infrastructure by only using and paying for AWS cloud infrastructure in the event of a disaster or a test exercise.
Cohesity supports the standard Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) in a DRaaS model. Customers can also accelerate time-to-value by quickly setting up a disaster recovery strategy without having to procure additional hardware or physical data centers.
Expansion of data management as a service
Cohesity DRaaS is the latest in Cohesity's comprehensive Data Management as a Service (DMaaS) offering. DMaaS comprises as-a-service solutions that offer companies a very simple way of securing, managing and analyzing their data - all directly on one platform. This eliminates investment costs and maintenance for separate services, solutions and management consoles that companies previously maintained for data backup, disaster recovery and other data management applications.
"Solutions that offer flexibility, resilience, and scalability are essential today in the face of ever-changing challenges - including cyberattacks," said Doug Yeum, leader of the AWS Partner Organization. "With the introduction of Disaster Recovery as a Service, Cohesity is making these critical capabilities available to its customers to reduce the risk of downtime while lowering costs—all with AWS's industry-leading cloud services."
