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.”
