Rubrik – A Refreshing Approach to Backups

We’ll miss Max at Tech Field Day but it’s great that he got a chance to catch up with Rubrik at VMworld. Here’s his “state of the union” for Rubrik in preparation for their Tech Field Day 12 presentation. Overall, he seems impressed by the company’s ability to deliver a simple and easy to deploy backup product, using their “Rubrik brick” appliances to allow for simple, transparent, efficient, and scalable backups.


Rubrik to talk cloud data management at Tech Field Day

Mike Preston has a great rundown of what he’s looking forward to from Rubrik at Tech Field Day next week. Aside from tempting Mike with free Lego (the struggle is real), he’s likes their policy based approach to data protection and disaster recovery. The strength of the policy based approach lies in the simplicity, define the tasks you want in the policies, and Rubrik’s appliance does the rest.

The other benefit Mike likes is the ability to work inside backups performed by Rubrik. This includes analysis, complex search, and testing on VMs.

The company iterates quickly, on their third major release in just a few years in existence. It should make for an exciting Tech Field Day presentation.


Tech Field Day 12 Primer: Rubrik

First-time Field Day delegate Matt Crape takes a look at Rubrik, a familiar face at the event series. He talks about their various configurable “briks” hardware appliances and their scale-out approach, which allows for superior dedupe and compression rates compared to legacy systems. He then dives into their Firefly release (announced at Tech Field Day 10) and how data can be managed by policy to promote simplicity. Watch Matt’s blog and twitter during and after Rubrik’s Nov. 16 presentation to learn more!
