HYCU® Named a Finalist in CRN’s 2024 Tech Innovator Awards
HYCU R-Cloud Continues to Drive Recognition for Its
Innovative Approach to Modern And SaaS Data Protection
Boston, Massachusetts, July 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HYCU,
Inc., a leader for modern data protection for on-prem, cloud
services and SaaS, and one of the fastest growing companies in the
industry, announced today that CRN®, a brand of
The Channel Company, has named HYCU R-Cloud as a finalist for the
2024 CRN Tech Innovator Awards. HYCU is being recognized for
R-Cloud in the Data Protection, Management, and Resiliency
category.
This annual award showcases innovative vendors in the IT channel
across 36 distinct technology categories ranging from cloud to
storage to networking to security. The 2024 winners were selected
by a panel of CRN editors who reviewed hundreds of vendor entries
and solution provider testimonials. Standout innovators were
selected as finalists based on a number of criteria, including key
capabilities, uniqueness, technological ingenuity, and ability to
address customer and partner needs.
HYCU R-Cloud, is a single, integrated SaaS platform that offers
enterprise class automated backup, granular recovery, data
migration, and disaster recovery across on-premises, multi-cloud
platforms, cloud services, and SaaS applications. Delivered as a
true cloud-native SaaS solution, HYCU R-Cloud is built on an
agentless architecture, eliminating unnecessary additional hardware
or software. A key component of R-Cloud is HYCU R-Graph that
provides data estate discovery and visualization, supporting more
than 70 data sources. In January 2024, HYCU made HYCU R-Cloud easy
to extend to new data sources to protect at scale and to help cover
new data sources efficiently and easily through the HYCU
Generative AI Initiative. This Initiative helped to seamlessly
integrate generative AI technology, including Anthropics' AI
assistant Claude with R-Cloud, redefining the development process
of data protection integrations and creating an easy-to-use way to
create SaaS integrations. This innovation helps partners to develop
and reduce the time to build new data protection modules from weeks
to hours. This is a stark contrast in the time it may take legacy
data protection providers to build and add new protection
capabilities to data sources.
“We are pleased to recognize the commitment to continuous
innovation among this year’s CRN Tech Innovator Award finalists.
Each of these vendors delivers cutting-edge technology that meets
evolving customer needs and creates new opportunities for solution
providers and the broader IT channel ecosystem,” said Jennifer
Follett, VP, U.S. Content, and Executive Editor, CRN, The Channel
company. “We look forward to future innovations from the recipients
and to seeing how their solution provider partners use these
offerings as the foundation of new, inventive solutions.”
“As we know, the proliferation of SaaS application use and the
need for modern data protection to make critical SaaS application
data available and recoverable, has never been higher,” said Simon
Taylor, Founder and CEO, HYCU. “We developed HYCU R-Cloud to
address the data protection challenges of existing on-premises
infrastructure to the emerging needs of Cloud Services and
Platforms and SaaS application data. None of what we have
accomplished would have been possible without a team of engineers
that are immersed in multi-platform, database, and SaaS application
backup, restoration, and availability. Thank you to CRN’s editors
for the selection, we are excited to see R-Cloud gain the
recognition it so thoroughly deserves.”
