We are adopting Rubrik for another RDBMS we support where it offers an API.
The PSM/onbar, NFS and Rubrik combination offered by Hugo is interesting.
With API support, Rubrik has the potential to offer much faster restores than are possible with a level 0 onbar restore. I am not sure you would see this benefit if Rubrik is actually restoring to a filesystem presented by NFS which then needs a PSM/onbar restore.
It's perhaps worth evaluating which backup solution vendors directly support Informix. Most sell a complete storage solution.
* Veritas Netbackup, although development ceased in 2013 and the latest GUI manager does not support Informix.
* Commvault, don't know much about this one.
* Tivoli.
* PSM of course.
Any others?

Subject: Rubrik Anyone
I hope I am not breaking any IBM rule asking this question but we are evaluating Rubrik as a replacement for TSM. I would appreciate any insight from anyone involved in that process. From what I saw, I am not sure it is the right tool for Informix yet or even for DB2.
Thanks
