25 Ottobre 2023 - 3:00PM
Backblaze, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLZE), the leading specialized storage
cloud, and HYCU, Inc. the fastest-growing data protection as a
service company, today announced a new partnership to help protect
workloads across on-prem and public cloud IT environments.
Together, the two companies are offering affordable, agile data
protection and recovery to customers worldwide.
“With more applications in use across the modern data center,
visibility and the ability to protect that mission-critical data
has never been at more of a premium,” said Subbiah Sundaram, Senior
Vice President Product, HYCU, Inc. “Our collaboration with
Backblaze now offers joint customers a cost-effective and scalable
data protection solution combining the best in backup and recovery
with Backblaze’s streamlined and secure cloud storage."
The average midsize enterprise uses upwards of 200 different
sets of data or “data silos” spread across a growing number of
applications, databases, and physical locations. HYCU gives
customers the power to protect every byte from ransomware or other
data loss events and manage all their business critical data in one
place. Most importantly, it gives customers the ability to recover
from disaster almost instantly, keeping them on line and in
business, with the company sharing an average recovery time of less
than 10 minutes.
By pairing Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage—an S3-compatible object
storage platform that provides highly durable, instantly available
hot storage priced at ⅕ of legacy provider pricing—with HYCU, the
partnership offers the following benefits:
- Performance: With a 99.9% uptime service level
agreement (SLA) and no cold delays or speed premiums, storing data
in Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage means joint customers have instant
access to their data whenever and wherever they need it.
- Affordability: Existing customers can reduce
their total cost of ownership by switching backup tiers with
interoperable S3-Compatible storage, while others who may not have
been able to afford the solution can now protect their data. And
Backblaze’s industry-leading provision of free download (also known
as egress) means joint customers don’t need to worry about
exorbitant fees for accessing or moving data.
- Compliance and Security: With Backblaze B2’s
Object Lock feature, the partnership also offers an additional
layer of security through data immutability, which protects backups
from ransomware and satisfies evolving cyber insurance
requirements.
“Backblaze and HYCU is a game changer for higher education
organizations and businesses who need flexible data management and
storage. This partnership brings together HYCU’s speed and
Backblaze’s affordability, and both platform’s simplicity,” said
Elton Carneiro, Senior Director, Partnerships at Backblaze. "We're
excited to partner our storage cloud with HYCU to make data
protection much more affordable and accessible.”
The companies shared that integration of Backblaze into HYCU is
the first step in their partnership, with the intention to offer B2
Cloud Storage as a part of HYCU’s other data protection offerings
in the future. Backblaze shared more information about the
partnership on their blog.
