Druva Data Protection for VMware Cloud on AWS

Solution Brief


On-demand cloud compute and storage services have grown steadily as companies continue their digital transformation journey. As businesses look to reduce costs, increase agility and improve the efficiency of their data center operations, they are selectively moving workloads to the cloud. The result has been the creation of a new business model known as hybrid cloud.

The goal of the hybrid cloud is to bring portability and consistent operations to on-premises and cloud environments. VMware Cloud on AWS is a joint development effort between AWS and VMware to deliver such an integrated cloud solution.

Learn how, with VMware Cloud on AWS, customers can:

  •   Reduce operational overhead and get to the cloud faster by leveraging existing
        skills, tools, and processes familiar to IT personnel
  •   Align costs to business needs with flexible consumption options and
        investment protection
  •   Get a single inventory view of both on-premises and VMware Cloud on AWS
        resources using vCenter server technology

The comprehensive guide to ransomware protection and recovery

White Paper


The rise of ransomware has become a crisis that has crippled organizations world-wide. New strains of ransomware are on the rise, and with more remote employees the risks and exposure are higher than ever before.

Reliable backup and recovery are a crucial line of defense against ransomware. Having secure backup images of critical business data and applications allows companies to roll back in time to recover applications and data before the point of ransomware infection.

Learn about these 5 steps to protect from and limit the impact of ransomware:

  1.   Identifying and automating data protection for key business assets
  2.   Protecting backup environment with immutable data
  3.   Detecting early threats and potential risks
  4.   Responding proactively to prevent contamination and threat permeation
  5.   Recovering data quickly with flexible recovery options
