First Data Protection Vendor to Achieve Database Protection Nutanix Ready Validation for Nutanix Database Service (NDB)
Cohesity, a leader in AI-powered data security, has announced that it is the first data protection provider to achieve Nutanix Database Service (NDB) database protection Nutanix Ready validation. This designation affirms that Cohesity’s solution has successfully undergone Nutanix Ready interoperability testing and unique feature integrations, reinforcing its compatibility with Nutanix environments.
NDB is a market-leading database lifecycle management platform designed to facilitate database-as-a-service solutions across hybrid multicloud environments. It enables enterprises to efficiently deploy, clone, manage, and scale databases while maintaining robust security, performance, and compliance standards.
With this validation, Cohesity DataProtect seamlessly integrates with NDB’s native time machine capabilities, offering streamlined protection for PostgreSQL databases on NDB through a unified control plane. This integration empowers large enterprises with enhanced resilience against evolving cyber threats.
According to Cohesity’s 2024 Global Cyber Resilience Report, 67% of global organizations experienced a cyberattack last year, with the threat landscape continuing to escalate. The collaboration between Cohesity and Nutanix equips organizations with cutting-edge tools to optimize database operations and strengthen their cyber resilience strategies.
