Backup Made Invisible

Integrated backup solutions are not new—they have been around enterprises for more than a decade. Purpose-built to deploy rapidly and offset the need to manage separate silos of hardware and software, they became popular for legacy infrastructure. These solutions still remained useful when cloud and hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) emerged. But, like any dated technology, they added to the complexity of managing and tightly integrating with the platform of choice. This created issues around manageability, interoperability, and access.
