Trilio has announced annual contract value growth of 314% year-over-year and new business growth of 281% year-over-year in the first half of 2020.

Despite the economic slowdown spurred by the ongoing global pandemic, the cloud-native data protection provider announced new customers in 1H 2020. These include large EMEA telecoms and financial services firms, US-based healthcare companies, global defense agencies and managed service providers.

The company also expanded technology partnerships with Red Hat and IBM, including Red Hat OpenShift Operator Certification and Red Hat Marketplace availability, in the first half of 2020.

Trilio said that it was recently named as a Sample Vendor in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Storage and Data Protection Technologies, 2020 report in the Container Backup category (Gartner subscription required).

“I think all of us had apprehensions about how 2020 would unfold due to the global pandemic,” said David Safaii, CEO of Trilio. “What we found, however, is that prospects with active proof-of-concepts continued to prioritize their data protection projects to build resilient infrastructure, meet service level agreements and adhere to compliance requirements. Additionally, we’re seeing our TrilioVault for Kubernetes engagements ramp with both existing customers and new enterprises. Our differentiated value and message is resonating.”

The company recently announced the general availability of TrilioVault for Kubernetes.

TrilioVault for Kubernetes is a cloud-native, application-centric data protection platform that was designed from the ground-up to support the scale, performance and mobility requirements of Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift containers across any private or public cloud environment.
