FalconStor Habanero™ Now Available on IBM Cloud Marketplace
FalconStor is excited to announce that Habanero is now available directly through the IBM Cloud Marketplace, making modern, cloud‑optimized data protection accessible to IBM Cloud users worldwide.
Modern, Cloud-Optimized Data Protection for IBM Power
Enterprises face increasing pressure to modernize data protection while defending against rapidly evolving cyber threats. Many still operate aging, fragmented recovery architectures that slow operations, raise risk, and inflate costs.
FalconStor Habanero delivers a next‑generation backup, archive, and recovery experience by combining FalconStor’s data protection platform with the durability and global reach of IBM Cloud Object Storage (COS).
Resilient Backup & Recovery Without Legacy Overhead
Traditional DR workflows rely on manual media handling, limited testability, and connected systems that amplify ransomware exposure. Habanero eliminates these constraints with:
- Instant, predictable backup, archive, and recovery
- Enterprise‑grade SLAs and up to 20× faster data transport for IBM Power
- Immutable data vaults, WORM retention, and storage‑native immutability
- Air‑gapped protection aligned with compliance and audit requirements
Powered by IBM COS, Habanero also delivers:
- Industry‑leading durability
- Massive scalability with object‑storage economics
- Low‑cost long‑term retention
- Global availability and lifecycle automation
- Predictable OPEX with no retrieval or egress surprises
