ViaWest Reselling Rubrik Data Management Platform

ViaWest, Inc., a provider of hybrid IT solutions and colocation in North America, and Rubrik, Inc., a cloud data management company, announced a partnership that will enable ViaWest to deploy Rubrik’s data management platform to ViaWest clients.

By deploying Rubrik as part of ViaWest’s hybrid IT solutions, customers will be able to simplify their data protection and speed their time to recovery, all through an easy integration.

“ViaWest is continually seeking out advanced technologies that will provide our clients with the best hybrid IT solutions available,” said Andrew Hodes, VP of development, ViaWest. “With security and recovery at the top of organizations’ priority list this year, we’re excited to be able to partner with Rubrik to deliver even more sophisticated data protection and backup to clients that rely on our cutting edge infrastructure and solutions.“

Key benefits for clients deploying Rubrik with ViaWest include:

• Infrastructure simplicity: Rubrik’s approach to data protection takes multi-tier, legacy architectures and converges them into a scale out appliance that provides return on capital expenditure.
• Rapid deployment: Implementation of the solution takes minutes rather than months. Once the solution is deployed, daily administration can be reduced from hours to minutes, and recovery takes seconds rather than days, reducing operational expenditure.
• Enhanced recovery: Data can be recovered or made accessible to applications in near real time, regardless of where it is stored.
• Streamlined management: Administrators are able to automate and orchestrate data throughout the hybrid cloud. An API-first architecture offers ease of automation for integration into existing applications or tools.
• Security: Data owners can rely on Rubrik for role based access controls, audit trails and security for data in-flight and at rest. Rubrik also offers FIPS 140 Level 2 security for physical security.
  

“Rubrik’s cloud data management platform simplifies data protection while managing and securing data across hybrid cloud environments,” said Bipul Sinha, CEO, Rubrik. “We share ViaWest’s vision to bring cloud to the enterprise, and are excited to be part of ViaWest’s standard hybrid IT solution.“

Hybrid IT solutions help clients enhance their business through cloud, colocation, security and consulting services. Delivering a host of data security, compliance, backup and DR solutions, ViaWest is committed to ensuring clients are protected and able to continue business operations in the event of an incident. Its DR engagement model includes design, management and support for recovery efforts based on the client’s specific infrastructure, application set and business requirements.

Rubrik and ViaWest will be providing demos of the Rubrik solution at VMworld 2016, taking place August 28 – September 1 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel & Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV.
