Portworx announced Kubernetes Backup is now available in the AWS Marketplace. Using the AWS Marketplace to deploy PX-Backup allows for a seamless installation and billing experience for Portworx customers running in AWS. Getting started with PX-Backup is as simple as performing the following steps:

  1. Launch or use an EKS cluster.
  2. Subscribe to PX-Backup in the AWS Marketplace.
  3. Connect your EKS cluster to your subscription.
  4. Install PX-Backup via Helm.

That’s it—a seamless workflow to start using PX-Backup in AWS to provide backup and recovery for all of your Kubernetes applications.

New to PX-Backup? Let’s recap what it’s all about.

PX-Backup is a Kubernetes backup solution that allows you to back up and restore applications and their data across multiple clusters. PX-Backup works with PX-Central, allowing you or any other approved users to manage multiple clusters and their backups from a single UI. Under this principle of multitenancy, authorized users connect through OIDC to create and manage backups for clusters and apps that they have permissions for without needing to go through an administrator.
