IBM Cloud Pak Adopt Online Backup/Restore with Storage Fusion & Recipe

Online and non-disruptive backup and restore of mission-critical and enterprise applications such as Cloud Pak for Data is now available (with CP4D v4.5 and onward) using application-aware recipes and IBM Storage Fusion software.

Other Cloud Paks such as CP4I and CP4BA can benefit from the same capability if the integration can be developed, tested and supported.
