KubeCon + CloudNativeCon India 2024

In this comprehensive session, we will delve into the intricate details of data protection in the context of cloud-native applications. We will start by examining the automation of application discovery. This includes a special focus on application-consistent backups, particularly crucial for distributed applications utilizing multiple persistent volumes. We will then navigate the considerations for temporary storage and compute needs during backup and restore operations. The discussion will extend to the impact on production applications' compute and I/O performance. As a highlight, the session will explore strategies for detecting and protecting applications from ransomware attacks. The final segment of the presentation will cover application recovery and thereby mobility of applications across different Kubernetes platform distributions. Each aspect is designed to prepare participants for a future where cloud-native data protection is efficient, resilient, and cost-effective.
