Introduction to Rubrik

Rubrik simplifies backup and recovery for hybrid cloud environments. By combining data orchestration, catalog management, and deduplicated storage into a singular software platform, it removes the complexity of legacy backup systems. Enterprises can use Rubrik’s API-first software tool to automate automation and unlock cloud for long-term data retention or disaster recovery. Rubrik supports the top operating systems, databases, hypervisors, clouds, and SaaS apps and was made to be vendor-neutral.

Rubrik assists organizations in maintaining data integrity, provides data availability that withstands challenging circumstances, constantly tracks data risks and threats, and restores businesses with their data when infrastructure is attacked.

The following helps you to get started.

Version History

Application VersionBug fixes / Enhancements
2.2.0This implementation introduces third-party CI alert mapping and OpsQL-based enhancements. Configure alert mappings to target CI systems through the application configuration. After configuration, the system automatically forwards alerts to the corresponding third-party platforms and maps them to the specified CIs, ensuring consistent integration and efficient alert management.
Previously, resource filters in the app configuration required manual entry of resource core and custom attributes. With this enhancement, the configuration is moved to OpsQL-based filtering, where users can see the keys auto-populated as needed.
2.1.1Fixed Auth Token issue for getLatest snapshot scenario.
2.1.0Added support for token-based authentication.
2.0.6Added support for all critical and warning severity alerts and then added support for event type filtering.
