GigaOm analysts ranked Kasten by Veeam in the top quadrant of Kubernetes data protection providers, recognizing the company’s Kasten K10 cloud-native data management platform with across-the-board “exceptional” ratings for all five evaluation metrics: flexibility, scalability, performance, usability and security capabilities.
