Teltow, Germany, September 30, 2026 – IT Automation Week has named simplyblock a Top Product of the Week for the built-in business continuity and disaster recovery capabilities of its software-defined storage platform for Red Hat® OpenShift® Virtualization.

IT Automation Week recognized simplyblock for combining storage replication, recovery orchestration, workload mobility and backup in one software-defined storage platform, so OpenShift Virtualization teams do not need to purchase and deploy a separately licensed DR product.
The recognition follows simplyblock’s launch of built-in business continuity and disaster recovery on September 29, 2026. Learn more on the disaster recovery page.
