JetStream Software Secures Series a Funding Led by Digital Alpha to Advance DRaaS and Cloud Data Protection

Highlight: Differentiated Technology for Continuous Data Protection

JetStream Software Inc., an innovator in cloud data protection, announced Series A funding of $7.7 million to advance the company’s unique technologies that enable managed service providers (MSPs) and cloud service providers (CSPs) to deliver disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) and continuous data protection to enterprise customers, government agencies, and research and educational organizations.

Led by Digital Alpha Advisors, LLC, the Series A investment is also supported by JetStream Software’s private and institutional seed investors. New to the funding round is Illuminate Ventures. The investment will support continued product development, innovative go-to-market strategies, and increased engagement with key strategic partners.

Many information technology operations are rapidly shifting from on-premises systems and software to cloud-based services. Data protection is the top use case for enterprise hybrid cloud. As a part of this trend, data protection, disaster recovery and business continuity are increasingly provided by trusted MSPs and CSPs, who often lack native cloud DR capability. This shift presents new challenges and opportunities in the multibillion-dollar market for data management software.

JetStream Software’s flagship product, JetStream DR, is a first-of-its-kind solution designed specifically for cloud-based disaster recovery and business continuity. The software empowers service providers to deliver near-zero recovery point objectives (RPOs) to maximize data protection as well as near-zero recovery time objectives (RTOs) to maximize system recovery and availability. Additional technical innovations include:

  • Differentiated New Technology: Continuous data replication through VMware vSphere IO Filters
  • Unmatched Performance: Robust, high-throughput, fault-tolerant data replication and VM failover to recovery sites
  • Cost Efficiency: Direct data replication into any S3-compatible object store, for data recovery

The JetStream DR software is compatible with any type of datastore, including VMware Virtual SAN or Virtual Volumes, traditional block or file storage, or any hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) from any vendor. MSPs/CSPs can provide VM recovery for all types of customers from a single, centrally-managed environment to a large-scale data center infrastructure.

With the scalability and cost efficiency of VM recovery from object storage, plus compatibility with all types of virtualized environments, JetStream DR enables MSPs/CSPs to realize cloud economics in their DR service offerings. By replacing legacy, single-tenant data protection systems and recovery processes running on-premises, customers benefit from more convenient adoption and management, better performance, and overall lower cost of ownership.
