CloudCasa by Catalogic has introduced CloudCasa Disaster Recovery (CloudCasa DR) for Kubernetes, powered by HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000. The new offering extends CloudCasa’s Kubernetes data protection portfolio with orchestrated disaster recovery capabilities designed for Kubernetes applications and KubeVirt virtual machines deployed across HPE and hybrid cloud environments.
The announcement builds on CloudCasa’s existing support for backup and recovery of HPE Kubernetes Service (HKS) clusters. With the addition of CloudCasa DR, organizations can leverage storage-based replication and automated recovery workflows to meet more aggressive recovery objectives than traditional backup-based approaches.
Disaster Recovery Driven by Native Replication
Rather than restoring workloads from backups after an outage, CloudCasa DR uses native replication built into the HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 platform. The approach is intended to deliver near-zero data loss and faster recovery times for business-critical Kubernetes environments.
CloudCasa combines Kubernetes-aware orchestration with array-native replication to automate failover and failback operations between clusters and sites. This enables organizations to recover workloads with minimal manual intervention while maintaining application consistency during disaster recovery events.
Support for Kubernetes Applications and Virtual Machines
The platform protects both containerized applications and KubeVirt-based virtual machines, including deployments running on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization and SUSE Virtualization environments.
Additional capabilities include bidirectional disaster recovery, namespace-level recovery, multi-tenant isolation, role-based access controls, and enterprise security features. Supported Kubernetes platforms include HPE Kubernetes Service, Red Hat OpenShift, SUSE Rancher, and other Kubernetes distributions.
Extending CloudCasa and HPE Collaboration
CloudCasa positions its offering to help organizations meet enterprise RPO and RTO targets without the delays of full backup restores. “Organizations running Kubernetes on HPE infrastructure need disaster recovery that meets enterprise RPO and RTO targets without the delay of full backup restores,” said Ryan Kaw, vice president of global sales and alliances at CloudCasa. “By combining Kubernetes-aware orchestration with HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 native replication, CloudCasa helps customers recover mission-critical applications and virtual machines in minutes across hybrid and multi-cluster environments.”
The launch further expands the collaboration between CloudCasa and HPE, providing customers with a broader data protection strategy that includes backup, recovery, and disaster recovery for Kubernetes workloads. Organizations can also use HPE StoreOnce and HPE X10000 Object Storage as backup targets for long-term retention and recovery operations.
With CloudCasa DR, the companies are targeting enterprises seeking automated disaster recovery capabilities for Kubernetes infrastructure while maintaining support for hybrid cloud deployments and modern virtualization workloads.
