Rubrik vs. Plakar

A logical air gap prevents attackers from discovering your backups and enhances security. Our unique append-only file system ensures that backup data remains inaccessible to cybercriminals. To further safeguard your backups, you can globally enforce multi-factor authentication, effectively barring unauthorized access. Instead of managing hundreds or even thousands of backup jobs, you can streamline operations by implementing just a few comprehensive policies. It’s crucial to apply the same protective measures to all workloads, whether they are hosted on-premises or in the cloud. Archiving your data to your cloud provider's blob storage is a smart strategy for long-term preservation. With real-time predictive searching capabilities, accessing archived data becomes a swift and efficient process. You can conduct searches throughout your entire environment, down to the specific file level, allowing you to choose the optimal time for recovery. Recovery processes can be completed in mere hours rather than the days or weeks typically required. In collaboration with Microsoft, Rubrik is dedicated to helping businesses enhance their cyber-resilience. By storing immutable copies in a Rubrik-hosted cloud environment that is distinctly separated from your core workloads, you can significantly mitigate the risks of data loss, theft, and backup data breaches, ultimately ensuring the integrity and security of your information. This approach not only fortifies your defenses but also promotes a more streamlined backup and recovery experience across your organization.

Plakar stands out as a pioneering open backup solution that promotes resilience-as-code for fast-growing enterprises and sizable organizations. Security and infrastructure teams depend on Plakar to implement, synchronize, and verify protection across all workloads through a centralized control interface, which can effortlessly scale from a single server to large multi-tenant cloud settings. Central to its functionality is Kloset, an open-source encrypted deduplication engine created to reduce the costs associated with comprehensive backup solutions, operating without agents on any storage system, and without requiring trust in those systems. Furthermore, it equips teams with an integrated overview of their entire resilience framework, guaranteeing that the keys, data, and recovery pathways are securely managed by the users themselves. This capability allows organizations to uphold strong recovery strategies while effectively overseeing their data assets. By enabling a seamless approach to data protection, Plakar empowers businesses to adapt to evolving challenges and safeguard their critical information.
