A backup that completes is not the same as data you can restore.

Backup as a Service protects virtual machines, applications and business data through policy-driven backup on the Nutanix Cloud Platform, with monitoring, restore testing and proof of recoverability.

A conceptual operating model. Retention and schedules are defined per engagement.

What it is

A CDS-operated, policy-driven backup service protecting virtual machines, applications and business data, where proof of recoverability, not just backup completion, is the measure of success.

  1. 01

    Protection scope: virtual machines, applications and business data

  2. 02

    Policy: schedules and retention

  3. 03

    Observe: job monitoring and escalation

  4. 04

Questions about this service

What does CDS protect with BaaS?

Virtual machines, applications and business data, under defined schedules and retention, with job monitoring, escalation and restore testing.

Why does CDS emphasise restore testing?

Because proof of recoverability matters more than backup completion alone. CDS tests restores and produces evidence, and can add immutable or isolated options for resilience.
