Everyone is on the digital transformation bandwagon, some without fully realizing some of the challenges that they will have to face with their data and applications. A second trend that is popular at the moment is cloud-first and multi-cloud approaches both of which bring tremendous benefits but at the cost of decentralizing data and perhaps some control. This is a problem begging for a solution, one that Rubrik is happy to provide.
Polaris SaaS Platform creates a unified system of record that stretches across all enterprise applications whether they are running in a data center and/or the cloud(s). Using an open API architecture, the platform includes native search, workflow orchestration, and a global content catalog. These APIs can be leveraged by both Rubrik and other develops to deliver high value data management applications for data policy, control, security, and deep intelligence
Rubrik is also rolling out the first application on its new SaaS platform, Polaris GPS. This application can deliver a single control and policy management console across globally distributed business applications, which are locally managed by Rubrik’s Cloud Data Management instances.
Benefits include:
- Global Dashboard: An interactive global map instantly visualizes all applications and data contained across physical, virtual, and cloud topologies.
- Custom Analytics and Reporting: A next generation on-demand intelligence engine delivers actionable knowledge.
- Global System Activity: A macro-view provides a quicker time to resolution for any system troubleshooting, enabling enterprises with large, complex environments to quickly identify, isolate, and prioritize incidents.
- Global Data Management Policy: Enterprises can easily produce records to demonstrate global SLA compliance for data spread across on-premises and multiple clouds. Point-in-time activities across different applications and locations can be surfaced through search.
