Rubrik

Product

Rubrik offers three products:

Cloud Data Management (CDM)

Cloud Data Management (CDM) manages the backup, disaster recovery, archival, compliance, analytics, and copy data management of all data in the cloud, at the edge, or on-premises. CDM is offered as a software product or in combination (i.e., one can install it as a virtual appliance) with a hardware appliance and is installed and hosted at customer locations; therefore, managing and securing the deployment is the responsibility of the customer.

Rubrik Polaris

Polaris is a SaaS platform that is used to deliver a unified system of record that brings all Rubrik Cloud Data Management (CDM) instances together for ease of management when customers have multiple CDM instances on-site.
Polaris provides a global policy framework, workflow orchestration, and analytics for secondary data managed by Rubrik software. This covers backup, archive, disaster recovery, and DevOps data.

Rubrik Mosaic

Rubric Mosaic provides backup and recovery for NoSQL databases. It can be installed on-premises or on any cloud, and is available via Microsoft Azure Marketplace.
