Astra hands-on workshop: Explore Kubernetes-native application management with NetApp Astra
Astra and Kubernetes Series
Session 2 of 2
Abstract
As Kubernetes adoption accelerates, protecting entire app workloads carries a lot of importance. App deployers require a one-touch, Kubernetes-native solution that can preserve stateful applications and all dependent resources.
Astra is NetApp's application-aware, data-management solution; purpose-built for Kubernetes.
Learn how Astra can enable Kubernetes app developers to handle data protection, disaster recovery and migration workflows directly through the platform layer on-prem and in the cloud. This hands-on session walks you through a number of daily operations that Astra handles and helps attendees understand the steps involved in consuming Astra for their on-prem Kubernetes clusters.
Key takeaways
- Astra is NetApp's answer to protect Kubernetes workloads and is offered as a fully managed service on clouds (Azure and Google Cloud), as well as on premises (as a self-managed solution).
- Protecting Kubernetes applications require a solution that handles all Kubernetes resources and data that comprise an application.
- Astra enables you to clone entire applications across namespaces, back them up to object stores automatically, and quiesce applications before taking point-in-time snapshots.
