The idea is to complement Qumulo’s NAS clusters in the data protection space especially in continuous replication and backup. Considering data protection, beyond internal protection with an advanced erasure coding service layer, obviously Qumulo cluster must be protected against disaster, ransomware and other nightmare that could impact the primary storage solution serving the business.
The firm targets the 900 installations worldwide with plenty of room to grow but started of course with Germany and potentially other “connected” countries.
The first dimension is related to the failover and failback between clusters to maintain a global availability leveraging the replication features of Qumulo. The team delivers this with a deep integration and control with a dedicated GUI.
The second element touches backup and restore with the BareOS plug-in tailored to Qumulo clusters. BareOS is an open source backup software that is fully integrated to Qumulo via this Yuzuy plug-in. It leverages Qumulo’s snapshot technology and reduces significantly the backup window with a very fast file candidate scan and detection. In other words, it avoids deep, time and resource consuming tree walks. At the end RPO is optimized and more frequent backup session scan be applied. It would be possible for Yuzuy to open this plug-in to other backup software already chosen and run by Qumulo’s clients.
The Yuzuy solution is a VM appliance running on-premise or in the cloud. It is charged with a similar model as Qumulo uses, all functions and support are included of course. Future directions include multi-factor authentication, syslog integration and synchronization of snapshot policies.
