SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Veritas launches a unified cloud data management platform to help organizations “accelerate their transition” to the cloud.
Data management company Veritas introduced Veritas Alta to provide multicloud data availability, protection, and compliance, the company said last month.
Securing multicloud environments can be challenging for organizations as they need to protect and integrate so many solutions and entry points. Veritas Alta is designed to help these organizations manage all of their data protection from one place.
With Veritas Alta, organizations can migrate critical applications to the cloud and back up all of the data critical to those workloads.
Teams that already use Veritas technology for storage and need to securely migrate workloads to the cloud can benefit from this addition to the Veritas portfolio.
Veritas Alta View, a data management console for Alta customers, is a single console that enables users to manage their data security across on-premises, cloud, and edge environments. Alta View is integrated with Veritas analytics engine, allowing customers to view reports and insights related to their data security. The analytics engine also uses machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for autonomous data management, which should reduce the manual effort for customers’ IT teams.
Companies that are responsible for their own data
Although cloud service providers offer limited security features for customer data, critical business applications require more advanced data protection across all storage and processing environments.
Veritas intends Alta to strengthen customers’ ability to “own and control their data, no matter where it resides — on-premises or in the cloud — while reducing the operational complexities and costs associated with managing multicloud environments to reduce,” said Greg Hughes, CEO, Veritas.

- ransomware Elasticity: powered by Veritas Cloud Scale technology
- Application resilience: with up to five nines availability
- Data Compliance as a Service: Collecting data from all business communication platforms
