Backup is not restore

We back up your Kubernetes workloads with Velero to our S3 storage – including retention policies, encryption, and regular restore tests. The entire backup lifecycle rests with ayedo; your team focuses on releases instead of restore procedures.

Kubernetes backups

Velero-based

Full backups of namespaces, PVs, and resources. Scheduled backups and disaster recovery between clusters.
Velero Kubernetes PV

Application data

Databases & stateful apps

Consistent backups of your stateful workloads – PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch, and more from our app catalog .

EU storage

S3-compatible in the EU

All backup data is stored in our S3 storage on European infrastructure – encrypted and redundant.
