Wasabi and Arcserve Partner to Deliver Centralized Management of Data Protection with Native Cloud Replication

April 22, 2020

BOSTON, MA, April 21, 2020 - Wasabi, the hot cloud storage company, announces that it has validated interoperability with multiple platforms from Arcserve, the world’s most experienced data and ransomware protection provider. With this collaboration, businesses can address critical data protection challenges, such as the global shift of remote workers, by protecting any type of workload while leveraging  Wasabi's improved economics and performance to save 80% over AWS with no fees for egress or API requests. Together, they deliver an affordable, and efficient cloud backup solution that empowers rapid restore and retrieval of data for business continuity.

Wasabi offers one product: tier-free cloud storage with predictable and straightforward pricing that supports any application running the S3 API (the de facto standard for storage apps). Arcserve Unified Data Protection (UDP) is a best-in-class data protection tool with a single interface, users can monitor all backup activities, track volume, and manage data operations across all of their devices. This joint solution allows rapid data restore or retrieval without any fees for egress or API requests.

Arcserve delivers powerful data protection capabilities through its integrated suite of products including Arcserve Unified Data Protection (UDP) software, Arcserve Appliances Secured by Sophos, and Arcserve Backup. Disparate data is managed under a single interface, allowing companies to back up, access, and restore whether on-premises, remote, or in the cloud. Endpoint protection with artificial intelligence (AI) from Sophos protects backups from ransomware with native replication to Wasabi’s cloud for increased redundancy and protection.

“The cost of managing assets on tape is growing faster than ever,” shares David Friend, CEO of Wasabi. “With more data being created in the last two years than the entirety of human history, it is spread across a myriad of systems and applications that span the globe. IT’s greatest challenge is to manage it all securely and efficiently. Arcserve is a trusted data protection solution and therefore the perfect partner to fulfill this need. With Arcserve, users can monitor all of their backup activities in one place helping them manage vast amounts of data while storing it safely with Wasabi.”

Companies looking for all-in-one backup, disaster recovery and cybersecurity can leverage Arcserve Appliances Secured by Sophos that combine flash-accelerated deduplicated storage, robust server processing and high-speed networking with proven threat prevention technologies, highly-redundant hardware and cloud services. The appliance data can be replicated to Wasabi’s cloud over WAN for increased redundancy and protection and can be accessed for granular restore or DR purposes without fear of accruing egress charges. Together, Wasabi and Arcserve deliver an ideal whole solution with a central interface for backup and security processes, tools and infrastructure that removes the complexities of discrete components.

“We are very pleased to partner with Wasabi in offering a clear path to hybrid cloud, particularly in an unprecedented era where workers are largely remote and central management of backup and disaster recovery is more critical than ever,” said Clark Brown, Vice President of Channel Sales and Strategic Alliances at Arcserve. “Together, Arcserve and Wasabi offer an ideal solution to cost-effectively close data loss gaps and protect the entire infrastructure.”
