Datos IO is the first product designed specifically to meet the cloud-scale backup and recovery needs of modern, scalable, non-relational databases such as MongoDB and Apache Cassandra (DataStax), and cloud-native databases such as Amazon DynamoDB, Microsoft DocumentDB and others. These databases, and the cloud-native applications, such as analytics, IoT, and eCommerce written on them, don’t play by the same rules as we are used to in traditional data protection. This product analysis will therefore first cover how and why these new-age databases are so different from traditional relational databases, followed by an analysis of how Datos IO is addressing the problem.
