New Veritas Alta helps enterprises transition mission-critical workloads to the cloud

Veritas Technologies, a multi-cloud data management provider, has advanced its Autonomous Data Management strategy with the release of Veritas Alta, a cloud data management platform that assists enterprises in transitioning mission-critical workloads to the cloud. Alta leverages the cloud’s benefits to reduce costs, strengthen ransomware resilience, and ensure data is secure, accessible, and compliant. Veritas Alta View, a cloud-based management console that provides a unified view and control of the entire data estate—across edge, data center, and cloud—from a single pane of glass, was also introduced.

The rise of multi-cloud provides enterprises with a transformative infrastructure and application development platform. Customers, on the other hand, are responsible for the security, protection, compliance, and availability of their data in the cloud as part of a shared responsibility model with the cloud service provider (CSP). CSP tools provide basic functionality, but mission-critical applications require enterprise-grade capabilities, cost optimization, and cross-cloud data mobility and visibility.

Greg Hughes, chief executive officer at Veritas said, “Our approach to multi-cloud brings more than 30 years in enterprise-class data management innovation to bear as we address the unique needs of the cloud.  Veritas Alta advances our mission to empower customers to own and control their data no matter where it resides—on-prem or in the cloud—while reducing the operational complexity and costs associated with managing multi-cloud environments.”
