Dell Technologies And Druva Collaborate

The new Dell EMC PowerProtect Backup Service, powered by Druva, brings businesses the opportunity to scale data protection on-demand, gain visibility across workloads, and meet ever-increasing data compliance standards through accessible SaaS-based data protection architecture.

Digital transformation efforts have been a keen focus of organizations over the last 12 months and these initiatives are only expected to accelerate in the coming months. According to Gartner, 40% of all enterprise workloads will be deployed in cloud infrastructure and platform services by 2023, up from 20% in 2020.* Through this collaboration, Dell is focused on enhancing its data protection portfolio for SaaS, hybrid environments and devices, and helping customers succeed in this pivotal moment. Dell EMC PowerProtect customers can centrally protect these critical workloads and collaboration tools like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Salesforce in the cloud.

“IT organizations today must balance data growth across a growing number of clouds and edge locations while streamlining and centralizing data management more broadly,” said Laura Dubois, VP, product management, Dell. “Dell EMC PowerProtect Backup Service is designed to help customers centrally protect, secure and recover diverse and distributed data while using features like eDiscovery, data security and compliance capabilities to reduce risks and meet governance requirements.“

Dell EMC PowerProtect Backup Service complements existing PowerProtect solutions and further expands coverage for existing workloads. It deploys in minutes from anywhere, can scale instantly to meet changing needs and data volumes, and offers consumption-based pricing that only charges for the data used. These capabilities bring Dell customers more options to broaden their data protection strategy and strengthen organizational data resilience.

“Every business deserves the opportunity to benefit from the cloud’s accessibility, robust security architecture, and cost savings,” said Jaspreet Singh, founder and CEO, Druva. “Our work together with Dell underscores the value of the cloud and our commitment to building the industry’s most comprehensive cloud data protection portfolio. Working with Dell, and its expansive technology and services portfolio, represents a tremendous opportunity to further accelerate Druva’s momentum and we are incredibly excited about our work together.“

Built entirely on AWS, Druva provides cloud data protection with a single console and open APIs available in 16 global regions. Its zero trust architecture is air-gapped and provides data isolation, a layered security model, and adheres to stringent security regulations.

Druva has been a Dell Technologies Capital portfolio company since 2014. This later backs early stage founders who push the envelope on technology innovation for enterprises. Portfolio companies also gain access to the go-to-market capabilities of Dell. Gregg Adkin, MD, Dell Technologies Capital, currently serves as the board observer.

Dell EMC PowerProtect Backup Service will be available May 18.
