Compatibility and Supported Clients

Kubernetes

CloudCasa supports all CNCF certified Kubernetes distributions and hosted services based on Kubernetes version 1.20 or higher as clients.

Through Catalogic Software’s many industry partnerships, compatibility has been verified with all major Kubernetes distributions (e.g. Red Hat OpenShift, SUSE Rancher, VMware Tanzu) and cloud services (e.g. AKS, EKS, GKE, DigitalOcean, IBM Cloud, OKE, OVHcloud).

Supported CPU architectures: amd64/x86-64 and arm64.

For backups utilizing snapshots, CSI drivers that support the CSI snapshot interface must be used, and the cluster must be configured to support snapshots. Live backups can be used for any PVs that do not support snapshots.

Cloud account linking

CloudCasa optionally integrates with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) cloud accounts, allowing backup/restore of cloud cluster configuration and automatic cluster creation on restore.

When linked to an AWS account, backup/restore of all Amazon RDS databases, including Aurora, is also supported.

The following storage is supported as targets for backups.

Object storage: AWS S3, S3-compatible, Azure Blob
File storage: NFS and CIFS
