Why Choose CloudCasa?
From a single dashboard, CloudCasa makes managing cross-cluster, cross-tenant, cross-region and cross-cloud backups and recoveries easy. Through our Azure integration, cluster recovery and migration include the ability to automatically re-create an entire cluster along with its vNETs, add-ons, and load balancers. Cluster and storage parameters can easily be modified as part of the process.

For users of Velero, CloudCasa also includes the ability to centrally catalog, monitor and manage existing Velero backups across multiple clusters. You can even use a recovery point created with Velero from any on-premises or cloud environment to perform full-stack AKS recoveries in your Azure region or tenant of choice.

Agent Installation Instructions:

Before installing the agent on your first cluster, you should sign up for a CloudCasa account at: https://signup.cloudcasa.io. After logging in, go to the Configuration/Service Plans page, select the Marketplace tab, and enable the CloudCasa for Azure service plan.
Start the installation process from the marketplace, and a new tabbed window will open. Under the "Basics" tab select the subscription and resource group within which your AKS cluster is located.
Under the "Cluster Details" tab, choose the cluster on which you wish to install the CloudCasa agent by selecting it from the drop-down list.
In the "Cluster Extensions Details" tab, provide a name for the extension. This should normally be “CloudCasa”. Then enter CloudCasa’s cluster ID for the cluster. You can obtain a cluster ID by logging in to the CloudCasa Portal, adding your cluster under Clusters/Overview, and noting the ID returned on the final page of the wizard.
Complete the installation process.
Once the agent is installed and running, the cluster state will change to “Active” in the CloudCasa portal.
