Kasten by Veeam has announced that it registered 500% growth year-over-year (YoY) for Q4 2020 in both revenue and customers.

Kasten’s expansion has been aided by its acquisition by Veeam, enabling the company to increase R&D, promote sales efforts, and enhance customer support across geographies, industries, and markets as they embrace future-ready architectures.

“We’re excited to kick off 2021 on a high note, having achieved several prestigious industry awards and recognition as a Leader and Outperformer in the GigaOm Radar for Kubernetes Data Protection in the last year. We are continuing this momentum alongside Veeam to address the data management needs of modern enterprises that rely on technologies that support a strong Kubernetes ecosystem, like the Kasten data management platform,” said Niraj Tolia, President and General Manager, Kasten.

Kasten continues to see interest in container-specific data management solutions from high-performance enterprise segments like banking and the financial sector, 5G, and edge computing.

For industries like these that rely heavily on Kubernetes, Kasten released two major commercial updates to its platform in the past year, v2.5 and v3.0, as well as countless capabilities and features that accommodate multi-tenant cloud environments, automate data migration, and deliver scalable backup, disaster recovery and application mobility across enterprise Kubernetes deployments.

Kasten recently formalized its relationship with the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), upgrading to a Platinum Membership and increasing its investment to support a more robust cloud-native community.
