History
CloudEndure was founded in 2012 by Ofer Gadish (CEO), Gil Shai (CRO), Ofir Ehrlich (VP R&D), and Leonid Feinberg (VP Product).[2] The same founders previously established AcceloWeb, which was acquired by
Limelight Networks in 2011.[3][4]
CloudEndure has raised a total of $18.2 million[5] from private investors and companies such as
Dell EMC,
VMware,

Awards for CloudEndure include the 2017 CRN Emerging Vendors Award for Storage Startups[9] and the 2016 Gartner Cool Vendor Award.[10]
CloudEndure products have been integrated as
OEM software for several partner company services, including an integration into
Google Cloud VM Migration Service[11] and integrations with
Cisco Systems CloudCenter Disaster Recovery and Migration [12][13] and
Sungard Availability Services Cloud Recovery.
Amazon made an offer to purchase CloudEndure in January 2019. Between $200 and $250 million was the negotiated price.[14] They outbid Google and acquired the company on January 10, 2019.[15][16]
Products
CloudEndure Disaster Recovery performs continuous block-level replication and saves a dormant copy in the target infrastructure, which uses a smaller percentage of compute, storage, and memory than the primary site; this leads to minimal RTOs (
recovery time objective) and RPOs (
recovery point objective) when spun up in a disaster.[17]
The company offers two tiers of Disaster Recovery, as well as Continuous Backup and Live Migration products.[18]
