1. How is Rubrik installed?
Rubrik is deployed either as an on-premises hardware appliance or as a virtual appliance running in cloud/virtual environments; setup involves connecting the appliance to your network and defining the systems to protect (VMs, databases, SaaS applications).
2. What do I need to set up Rubrik?
You need a network segment for the Rubrik appliance to connect to, access permissions to the systems being backed up, and sufficient storage capacity; cloud-based deployments just need integration permissions on the relevant cloud account.
3. I've never heard of Rubrik before — what does it do?
Rubrik is a data security platform that backs up your servers, databases, and cloud applications, letting you quickly restore your data (often within minutes) in the event of a ransomware attack or other data loss.
4. How do you help during setup?
We work with you through the whole process — from designing your backup policies to deploying the appliance, defining protected systems, and running your first recovery test.
5. How long does a Rubrik setup take?
Basic setup can typically be completed within a day or two; full deployment can take up to a few weeks depending on the number of systems being protected and the complexity of your policies.
