Workload mobility solutions provider RiverMeadow Software Inc. today introduced solutions to help customers migrate to Google Cloud and protect data on the platform through an integration with NetApp Cloud Volume Service (CVS).

The collaboration between RiverMeadow and NetApp is aimed at a few specific use cases for Google Cloud customers, including migrating to Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE), migrating to Google Cloud Compute Engine (GCE) and protecting workloads for disaster recovery (DR) on Google Cloud.

The solutions will address total cost of ownership (TCO) challenges, storage for cloud-native instances and DR for both on-premises and cloud-based workloads, the companies said.
