Cloud Infrastructure Backup: A Fresh Approach

The Challenges of Cloud Backup

1. Responsibility Model: AWS provides the infrastructure, but the responsibility for application security, data protection, and backup lies with the customer.
2. Cloud Resource Tracking: Customers struggle to track and manage backups for their dynamic cloud environments, leading to inconsistent backup policies and increased costs.
3. Snapshot Searchability and Restoration: Restoring data from cloud snapshots can be a cumbersome and time-consuming process, making it difficult to access and retrieve specific data.

Eon's Solution

1. Automated Cloud Inventory and Policy Management:

   • Eon automatically classifies all cloud resources and applies backup policies based on customer requirements, eliminating the need for manual tagging.
   • Customers can easily define backup policies for production, non-production, and sensitive data workloads.

2. Purpose-built Backup Storage Tier:

   • Eon stores backups in a globally searchable and accessible format, allowing customers to run SQL queries directly on their backups.
   • Customers can easily restore individual files, folders, or database tables without the need for full-instance restoration.

3. Efficient and Cost-effective Backup:

   • Eon's cloud-native approach and usage-based billing model help customers optimize their backup costs, which can account for 10-30% of their cloud bill.
   • Customers can leverage Eon's technology to make their backups a useful asset, rather than just a necessary but painful overhead.
