FAQs

What is Modern Virtualization?
Modern Virtualization transforms the way enterprises manage VMs by enabling organizations to manage containers and VMs side by side within one platform.
What is KubeVirt?
KubeVirt is an open-source technology that integrates virtual machines (VMs) into Kubernetes environments, allowing users to manage and run both virtualized and containerized workloads from a single platform.
How does Kasten support both virtual machines and Kubernetes applications?
Kasten is built Kubernetes-native and integrates directly with KubeVirt and other virtualization frameworks, enabling one platform to protect VMs and containers side by side. Unlike many other vendors, Kasten delivers consistent policies, application-aware backups, and cross-cloud mobility to bridge the gap between traditional virtualization and cloud-native environments.
Can Kasten help modernize without replacing everything at once?
Yes. With Kasten, you can protect existing VM workloads today while gradually refactoring applications into containers tomorrow. Its open ecosystem support across platforms, storage, and databases means you modernize on your timeline without lock-in, disruption, or added risk.
If I want to start with KubeVirt VMs protection and move up to eventually protect a fully containerized environment, can Veeam help do that?
Yes, Veeam has a solution, Veeam Kasten for Containerized VMs, to enable this progression. To access pricing and availability information for Veeam Kasten for Containerized VMs, please contact Kasten sales.
