Even though Amazon Web Services Inc. offers tools to develop a data protection strategy, it\u2019s quite challenging to build, operate and maintain data protection for an ever-growing data estate.<\/p>\n

With Amazon S3 being a preferred data store, Clumio Inc. ensures that data protection is on autopilot. The company\u2019s backup-as-a-service offering is built in AWS for AWS and not hindered by legacy backup constructs, according to Poojan Kumar<\/a> (pictured, right), co-founder and chief executive officer of Clumio.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo what folks have realized is that\u00a0as they\u2019re putting all of those\u00a0over 250 trillion objects sitting on S3,\u00a0a lot of them need backup and data protection\u00a0because there could be accidental deletions, software bugs,\u00a0or a ransomware type event,\u201d Kumar said. \u201cOur big use case is \u2026 building backup\u00a0and air gap protection for S3,\u00a0where we basically go to every other service\u00a0EC2, EBS, Dynamo, you name it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kumar and Paul Meighan<\/a> (pictured, left), director of product management, Amazon S3, and Glacier at\u00a0AWS, spoke with theCUBE industry analysts\u00a0John Furrier<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Savannah Peterson<\/a>\u00a0at\u00a0AWS re:Invent<\/a>, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media\u2019s livestreaming studio. They discussed how Clumio is engineered to enhance data protection for Amazon S3.\u00a0(* Disclosure below.)<\/em><\/p>\n

The need for a turnkey data protection solution<\/h3>\n

Since Cox Automotive wanted to backup Amazon S3, it choose Clumio based on its air gap protection solution, according to Kumar, who said that Clumio reimagines data protection in a simple way.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll talk about Cox Automotive \u2026 they fortunately bumped into Clumio,\u201d he said.\u00a0\u201cThey looked at our architecture,\u00a0looked at what it would really go and take to build it.\u00a0And guess what, sitting in 2022, getting to 2023, now, nobody wants to go and build this themselves.\u00a0They actually want a turnkey solution\u00a0that just does it right.\u201d<\/p>\n

The collaboration between AWS and Clumio provides innovation in the data protection space, according to Meighan, who said that this is founded on various fundamentals.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us, it really all comes down\u00a0to fundamentals,\u201d he stated.\u00a0\u201cSo Amazon S3 is unique distributed architecture,\u00a0delivers industry leading durability, availability\u00a0performance and security\u00a0at virtually unlimited scale. And a large number of our customers now\u00a0are using S3 through Clumio,\u00a0which is why the relationship is so important.\u201d<\/p>\n
