What is Rubrik Cloud Data Management (CDM)? #
Rubrik Cloud Data Management (CDM) platform is a data management solution that provides
backup, recovery, data archival, and disaster recovery on-premises, at the edge, and in the cloud.
Why Should You Use the Rubrik CDM Connector? #
The Rubrik CDM connector provides visibility into the assets and and policies in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure assets are managed per your security policies
-
derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Rubrik CDM REST API and ingests only meta-data about Rubrik CDM devices. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
