Case Study: Rubrik achieves simplified hybrid data protection and cost-effective on-site S3 storage with Cloudian HyperStore

Rubrik and Cloudian Simplify Data Protection with S3 API-compliant On-Prem Storage

Rubrik was grappling with rapid data growth, legacy backup architectures, and rising costs for offsite backup and disaster recovery. To simplify backup, long-term retention, and hybrid-cloud tiering, Rubrik paired its converged data management appliance with Cloudian HyperStore — an on‑premises, S3‑compatible storage platform from Cloudian.

Cloudian delivered HyperStore as a scale‑out, multi‑data‑center backup target integrated with Rubrik’s policy‑driven automation, enabling deduplicated backups, automated tiering to public cloud, and configurable protection (replication or erasure coding). The combined solution produced measurable benefits: petabyte‑scale capacity, >18 TB/hr throughput with 16 nodes, optional target deduplication ratios up to 30:1, and storage costs under $0.01/GB/month (including support), while reducing hardware and replication license costs and simplifying DR operations.
