Great product and improving with every release.
Rubrik is the primary backup product we use. It is currently used to backup our virtual infrastructure running on VMWare. Our backup is stored on Rubrik Briks and also archived to S3 Storage. Overall the product is rock solid with great features. Other than our primary backup solution this is also major part of our DR Recovery plan. In case of disaster we can restore our VMs to AWS using Rubrik Cluster on AWS.
- Direct Live backup of VMs using Native snapshot technology
- Cloud Integration for Archiving of Data
- Instant restore of VM using live mount on Rubrik Flash Storage
- 0 day local retention of VMs. It keeps atleast one copy of VM on local brik
- No way to assign a specific encryption key for a specific VM
- Some Disk Consolidation and Deduplication issues.

- Positive ROI as primary DR Product
- Negative Impact as our previous backup solutions supported Granular Backup of AD
- CommVault and Veeam Backup & Replication
Rubrik is direct replacement of VEEAM. But bare metal recovery of Commvault was better.

Many IT professionals with a background in backup management can learn to navigate and use Rubrik effectively without formal training.For IT Professionals New to Backup Solutions:
Understand your data and workloads. Define policies Implement Tiered Backup Strategy Leverage Automation Regularly Test Backups Configure Monitoring and Alerts. Perform Regular Updates and Maintenance. Enable Compliance Reports

Yes, We had a VM that was using rubrik storage 5 times its size. It was a snapshot issue that the support was able to fix
Everytime. All of our rubrik software upgrades are done by support. We just contact and schedule and they perform the upgrades

- S3 Archive
- MS SQL
- Fileshares (NFS, SMB)
- VMWare
Not at all. We had some initial difficulties with our SQL backup but those were all resolved with the help of Rubrik support.
- HyperV
We are currently planning to switch hypervisors from VMWare to HyperV so it will be a good testing opportunity for both hypervisors and their integration with Rubrik
- File import/export
- API (e.g. SOAP or REST)
You can configure Folder based SLA policies for automated backups of newly commissioned VMs in VMWare. This way you can have a catch all SLA for all VMs and you can manually configure any exceptions. Also make sure Rubrik Agent is installed on clustered Windows server to take VSS consistent snapshots.
