Use cases for Robin CNS on EKS

Kubernetes storage across AWS cloud and Outpost

Deliver standard storage and data management experience on EKS clusters across AWS cloud and Outpost. Developers find it easy to automate workflows with standard APIs for storage and data management across platforms.

Backup entire applications on S3

Protect entire applications (data+metadata+config) with backups to an S3 repository. Recover entire applications, including data, with a single command in the event of data corruption or hardware/cluster failure.

Application portability across EKS and other Kubernetes

Easily move complex stateful applications among EKS and other Kubernetes distributions on-premise and on public clouds. Moving entire apps across clusters is completely automated by Robin CNS, making it easy to export/import applications with a single command.

Dev/test collaboration across regions

Collaborate across geographies and teams by cloning entire application environments (data+metadata+config) in minutes. This helps free up valuable time across your Dev and QA teams and makes them more productive.

Fast application time-travel

User accidently deleted data? Or just want to see what your data looked at a prior date? Want to checkpoint your entire app before upgrades or new experiments? Robin CNS provides application-aware snapshots to help you quickly rollback to a previous point-in-time.

Why customers choose Robin CNS for EKS

Open-source Kubernetes platform optimized for running storage and network-intensive applications

Deploy within minutes
  • Robin CNS installs natively on EKS. It pools all available local (on Outpost) and EBS disks together to create an enterprise-grade block and file storage solution within minutes.
Always-on applications with HA/DR
  • Robin CNS provides synchronous replication across failover domains on EKS (such as disks, nodes, and availability zones) for HA. For DR, it provides asynchronous replication between active and standby EKS clusters.
Best-in-class performance
  • Robin CNS delivers up to 2X better performance than competition and provides performance tuning features such as data locality, I/O hotspot detection, live data rebalancing, and advanced placement policies.
Improved developer productivity
  • Robin CNS automates storage and data management operations on EKS and provides a simple API for developers and DevOps teams. DevOps teams can easily manage stateful applications without having to become storage experts.
