Kasten sees triple digit growth

Kasten has posted near triple-digit growth in its fiscal year 2022 earnings due to the spike in demand for secure Kubernetes deployments.
The outfit bills itself as the fastest-growing business within Veeam. It has expanded its footprint by doubling its headcount and extending its presence in the enterprise space and key vertical markets such as finance, wireless telecom, and the public sector.
Product management Veep Gaurav Rishi said: “Kasten by Veeam had a fantastic year reflecting the growth in demand for backup and disaster recovery tools within containerised environments.”
“Based on how our customers use Kubernetes, we believe there will be an acceleration of interest this year as companies pivot to DevOps and automation.
“It’s an exciting time for Kasten by Veeam as we continue to deliver incredible innovation that is helping more customers realise the potential of containers to solve real-work business challenges.”
Veeam claims Kubernetes adoption has exponentially increased over the years. The need for better data protection is expected to continue this growth trajectory, making education a pivotal step to success.
Kasten’s learning platform, KubeCampus.io, which offers free Kubernetes courses and hands-on labs, experienced a 50 per cent increase in users in 2022 — surpassing 15,000 users and 12,000 labs taken by the end of the year.
