Nakivo takes aims at VMware refugees tempted by Proxmox | Computer Weekly
Summary
What we have launched allows customers to put their data somewhere it can be recovered from and they can set up a repository where they want.” This extends Nakivo’s cloud backup capabilities from its existing EC2 support. According to Serdyuk, around one third (33%) of its customers – mostly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) – who responded to an internal survey said that they planned to migrate to Proxmox and away from VMware. The background to this is the Broadcom purchase of VMware and subsequent licensing changes and reported cost rises, said Serdyuk. “Most cloud vendors claim S3 compatibility [for file data], but there have needed to be some tweaks to work with the API,” he said. It supports use cases that range from SMEs, to large enterprises and managed service providers (MSPs), with deployment possible on NAS, Windows and Linux, as well as in a virtual appliance or from an Amazon instance in the cloud.
