FAQs

Red Hat® OpenShift® enables organizations to efficiently manage Kubernetes applications, while OpenShift Virtualization (OCP-V) extends this capability to virtual machine (VM) workloads. This includes seamless operations across hybrid and multi-cloud environments such as Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA) and Azure Red Hat OpenShift (ARO).

However, even with OpenShift’s built-in resilience, additional data protection is critical to safeguard against downtime, data loss, and cyber threats. Implementing robust backup strategies — including immutable backups — ensures that both containerized applications and VMs remain secure, compliant, and fully recoverable when it matters most.

Backup solutions integrated with OpenShift provide seamless compatibility and accessibility, enhancing operational consistency. These tools enable developers and DevOps teams to incorporate data protection early in the application lifecycle, aligning with best practices for disaster recovery and operational resilience.

Yes, CloudCasa allows for seamless migration between clusters irrespective of where it resides. The level of granularity can be defined from a namespace, a resource, or a persistent volume. The options to select what to restore is up to you and we allow for transformation from storage class mappings to renaming namespace(s), etc.

Yes, CloudCasa supports OpenShift Platform (OCP) and OpenShift Virtualization (OCP-V), allowing users to back up both containerized applications and virtual machines (VMs) in OpenShift. It ensures consistent, application-aware backups and enables seamless VM restoration across clusters and clouds (ARO, ROSA, OSD).

CloudCasa is the most cost-effective backup and disaster recovery solution for OpenShift — especially for users running both containers and virtual machines with OpenShift Virtualization. Unlike other tools that require separate solutions for VMs and containers, CloudCasa provides a unified platform that protects both within a single, intuitive interface.

Its user-friendly design simplifies backup, recovery, and migration across clusters and clouds, reducing operational complexity. With flexible SaaS and self-hosted deployment options, built-in ransomware protection, and robust multi-tenancy support, CloudCasa delivers enterprise-grade data protection tailored for modern containerized environments.

CloudCasa is built for multi-tenant environments, allowing RBAC and organizational isolation of backup and recovery operations. This is ideal for MSPs, enterprises, and teams managing multiple OpenShift clusters across different environments

SaaS Deployment: Fully managed, scalable, and cost-effective with centralized backup management and minimal operational overhead.
