Kubernetes backups
Velero-based
Full backups of namespaces, PVs, and resources. Scheduled backups and disaster recovery between clusters.
Backups
Made in Germany
Automated backups for workloads, databases, and applications – ayedo backs up, encrypts, and tests recovery on EU infrastructure. Predictable storage costs, fast activation, developers without backup ops.

Backup is not restore
We back up your Kubernetes workloads with Velero to our S3 storage – including retention policies, encryption, and regular restore tests. The entire backup lifecycle rests with ayedo; your team focuses on releases instead of restore procedures.
Application data
Databases & stateful apps
Consistent backups of your stateful workloads – PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch, and more from our app catalog.
EU storage
S3-compatible in the EU
All backup data is stored in our S3 storage on European infrastructure – encrypted and redundant.
Restore tests
Tested recovery
Regular restore tests ensure your backups actually work when you need them – not just exist on paper.
Retention & compliance
Audit-ready
Configurable retention, immutable backups, and evidence for ISO 27001 and DORA compliance requirements.
Included quota
For managed-service customers
The included backup quota and storage price are in the Service Annex – without hidden egress costs.
Pricing
Shared region billed by backup storage like S3 storage – dedicated region uses dedicated S3 region pricing, with no Velero surcharge.

Integration with Polycrate
Backups are part of the Polycrate Software Security Framework and build on Kubernetes, Velero, and S3 storage.
Managed Kubernetes
Backups from the cluster
Velero runs on your managed Kubernetes clusters – namespaces, PVs, and resources are backed up to S3 automatically.
Velero
CNCF standard
Velero as a managed service – schedules, backup hooks, and cluster migration without operating Velero yourself.
S3 Storage
Sovereign backup target
All backup data is stored in S3 storage on EU infrastructure – €0.05/GB/month, no hidden egress fees.
You build it. We run it.
Excellent performance and maximum uptime - that's what we wake up for. And sometimes even in the middle of the night.
