Azure Arc is a platform that helps users build and develop their applications by extending Azure to their datacenters, edge, or even to multicloud environments. It helps simplify the governance and management experience by delivering the consistency of Azure platform. For the Azure Arc platform, we decided to launch a new ISV program that will enable our partners to validate their applications. We are currently in the process of engaging with more partners to validate their solutions so that we can publish this on the marketplace for Arc enabled Kubernetes. Catalogic has released their first marketplace item for Azure Arc that is available today!
CloudCasa is a Kubernetes backup, recovery, disaster recovery, and migration service for development and production environments whether on-premise, in the cloud or at the edge. CloudCasa is a strong and simple Kubernetes backup-as-a-service solution that integrates with Azure Kubernetes Service and Azure Blob Storage. This has been validated and published to the Azure AKS marketplace. The latest version adds new migration and replication workflows to simplify key Kubernetes use cases such as migrating on-premises clusters to cloud. This includes all Kubernetes distributions and managed services including EKS, GKE, and Red Hat OpenShift. The premium service plans allow you to back up your persistent volumes to your own object storage, including Azure Blob Storage.
To try out CloudCasa, please follow the instructions posted here: Microsoft Azure Marketplace. This instruction set will share how to create your extension on Azure Arc to perform the backup of your cluster. As we look to continue to expand our ISV validation program, be on the lookout for more blogs on the new ISVs that are being published to the Azure Arc marketplace.
Thank you!
