Druva Inc announced it has surpassed 7 million daily backups as it continues to set the standard as the industry’s largest cloud data protection platform operating at scale. Daily backup activity surged by more than 40 percent over the last 12 months as Druva has expanded its footprint across 16 global Amazon Web Services (AWS) Regions and has helped thousands of organizations embrace cloud data protection to navigate unprecedented challenges. With more than 2.5 billion backups completed annually, 169PB of data under management, industry-first innovations, and a platform purpose-built for the cloud era, Druva has also once again been named Data Management Company of the Year by Data Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization.
The dramatic and rapid shift to remote working has pushed digitization initiatives to the forefront, with 68 percent of IT decision makers having accelerated their digital transformation plans since the pandemic.* As cloud migrations continue, data has become both more valuable, and in greater need of protection, than ever before. In tandem, IT teams need solutions which can protect data regardless of where it is created or stored, unlock its value to the organization, and strengthen business resiliency. The Druva Cloud Platform is built with automated backup and recovery features and proven ransomware protection that help businesses improve data agility, accelerate cloud migration efforts, and lower overall costs. These features, combined with the platform’s scalable cloud-native architecture and comprehensive workload coverage for protecting critical applications, helped Druva secure recognition as Data Management Company of the Year for the second consecutive year.
