Chander Kant, image (c) Zmanda Corp.Chander Kant is Founder and CEO of Zmanda, a provider of Open Source backup solutions that exploit the capabilities of Cloud storage services (such as Amazon’s S3) to supplement the traditional on-premise backup practices of their business customers.

I spoke with Chander recently to learn more about the company, and to understand the particular issues associated with moving backup data to the Cloud.

Production of this podcast was supported by Talis, and show notes are available on their Nodalities blog.

In addition to leveraging Cloud storage as part of a rounded backup strategy for on-premise data, we also discussed Zmanda’s approach to providing useful backups of data already stored in the Cloud.
