  • Block Storage: Backup, restore, and copy data using your storage's APIs.
  • Kubernetes Workload Integration: Easily perform common workload operations like scaling up/down, acting on all mounted PVCs and many more.
  • Application Centric: A single Blueprint handles workflows for every instance of your app.
  • Kubernetes Native APIs: APIs built using CRDs that play nicely with the Kubernetes ecosystem.
  • Secured by RBAC: Prevent unauthorized access to your workflows using RBAC.
