Delivering resilience, security, and simplicity across clouds with lower TCO
As organizations move to public clouds and SaaS, protecting and securing cloud data has become more complex and fraught with risks. While cloud providers secure infrastructure, customers remain responsible for their data, creating shared-responsibility gaps. Fragmented backup tools cause blind spots, inefficiencies, and cyber vulnerabilities while compliance and data-sovereignty demands require tighter control over data location and recovery. Meanwhile, costs rise from redundant storage and replication, and in-cloud backups remain vulnerable to ransomware, insider threats, and outages making resilient data protection essential.
Capability
Unified Protection
One platform for on-prem, multicloud, and hybrid workloads.
Resilience
Cross-cloud/outside tenant backups ensure recoverability even during cloud outages.
Recovery
Faster, more granular restores, and large-scale recovery support. Blueprints for orchestrated recovery & rehearsal.
Multi-layered zero-trust, immutability, advanced threat detection, and isolated vaulting.
Operational Efficiency
Centralized management and automation across hybrid and multicloud environments.
Cost Optimization
Deduplication, compression, and policy-based tiering lower TCO.
Compliance
Built-in governance and audit-ready reporting.
While leading cloud providers have their own cloud-native backup tools that provide basic protection, they lack capabilities to ensure data security and rapid recovery from cyber breaches.
Challenge
Cloud-Native Backup Limitations
Complex Operations
Siloed data protection for multiple workloads, each with their own UI leading to operational complexity and management overheads.
Backups stored in the same cloud create a single point of failure during outages or cyberattacks.
Scalability & Coverage
Limited workload and multicloud support; no unified management.
Rising Costs
Lack of deduplication and compression, and egress charges, managing multiple point solutions drive up costs in the long term.
Security
Needs manual provisioning of data security features and is prone to human-error or insider threats.
Few tools provide global governance or automated data risk visibility.
Cohesity Data Cloud unifies backup, recovery, and cyber resilience across on-premises, hybrid, and multicloud environments—providing one secure, scalable, and multicloud platform for all workloads.
Cloud-native backup tools meet basic needs—but Cohesity delivers enterprise-grade cyber resilience with unified protection, stronger security, and superior cost efficiency.
As part of a TCO comparison exercise for a Cohesity customer, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of backup cost efficiency across multiple AWS workloads— EC2, MSSQL, and Kubernetes backups utilizing Cohesity BYOL (Bring Your Own License) model and AWS cloudnative backup and storage costs. The results revealed two distinct cost models:
Cohesity may incur upfront costs for Amazon EC2 and EBS, but its global, cross-workload deduplication and compression sharply reduces incremental backup data. This results in:
Cohesity delivers exponential savings at scale, making it ideal for diverse enterprise environments, large datasets, and long-term retention.
AWS Backup offers simplicity and no license fees, but key limitations drive rising costs:.
Over time, storage, replication, and management costs accumulate rapidly
While AWS Backup is suitable for small or short-term use cases, enterprises protecting large sets of data or retaining them for extended periods consistently achieve significant lower TCO and higher efficiency with Cohesity. Deduplication-rich platforms like Cohesity Data Cloud and Cohesity NetBackup deliver measurable, sustained cost savings, turning cloud backup from a growing expense into a long-term financial advantage.
