Critical Reasons for Kubernetes-Native Backup

Explore the critical considerations for Kubernetes-native backup in this 46-minute webinar presented by CNCF. Dive into seven key aspects including Kubernetes deployment patterns, DevOps and "Shift Left" approaches, operator challenges, application scale, protection gaps, security, and ecosystem integration. Learn why traditional VM-backup systems fall short for containers and how recent Kubernetes releases enable cloud-native backup strategies. Through demonstrations using CNCF projects like Kubernetes, kind, and CSI, discover how to protect business-critical data in a developer-focused platform. Gain insights into the pitfalls of retrofitting legacy backup architectures and the benefits of truly cloud-native backup solutions. Presented by Deepika Dixit and Mark Severson from Kasten, this webinar covers topics such as stateful applications in Kubernetes, changing application deployment practices, DevOps scaling, security considerations, and moving workloads between clusters.
