OpenStack Data Protection
As innovators in data protection and cloud infrastructure, Trilio and Canonical have both left a significant imprint on the OpenStack ecosystem. This partnership brings together their extensive histories in OpenStack development, creating a powerful synergy to offer seamless, native data protection for Canonical OpenStack environments.
A Tradition of Shared Innovation in OpenStack
Canonical
The company behind Ubuntu, has been at the forefront of OpenStack since its early days. As one of the top contributors to the OpenStack project, Canonical has played a pivotal role in making OpenStack accessible, scalable, and enterprise-ready through its fully managed OpenStack distributions. Canonical OpenStack allows enterprises to build private clouds with the support of an efficient, secure, and customizable platform.
Trilio
Trilio for OpenStack, the flagship product, was designed from the ground up for OpenStack, ensuring that backup, recovery, and migration processes align perfectly with the unique demands of OpenStack cloud environments such as scale, multi-tenancy, and the ability to flexibly allocate compute, network and storage resources. Trilio’s integration with Canonical-managed OpenStack or Self-Managed OpenStack provides users with the confidence that their data is protected and recoverable, no matter the complexity or scale of the environment.
Trilio's Native Data Protection for Canonical OpenStack
- Seamless Integration: Trilio integrates natively with Canonical’s Charmed OpenStack, utilizing OpenStack-native APIs to provide agentless, application-consistent backups. This means your data is always protected in a way that aligns with OpenStack’s architecture, ensuring minimal impact on performance.
- Backup and Recovery for Any Workload: Whether you’re running mission-critical applications or large-scale data stores, Trilio’s platform can handle it. The solution supports a wide variety of workloads, allowing users to create snapshots, perform restores, and automate disaster recovery processes with ease.
- Cloud Operator or Self-Service Management Capabilities: Enforce data protection of workloads across tenants or availability zones – IT can proactively protect applications and data with a policy driven approach.

With a self-service, intuitive UI embedded into Canonical’s Horizon-based dashboard, users can schedule and manage backups in a few clicks.
- End-to-End Data Management: Trilio’s native integration with OpenStack allows it to interact directly with OpenStack services (e.g., Nova, Cinder, Neutron), delivering data protection with full awareness of your Canonical cloud architecture.
- Scalability: As your Canonical OpenStack environment grows, Trilio scales alongside it, ensuring data protection for workloads of any size, from small dev/test environments to full production clouds.
