The Rubrik software executes on standard servers and as a cloud instance. Additionally, it has achieved the AWS Outposts Ready designation.

Rubrik offers a complete integrated system that includes the data protection software and scale-out storage for protected information. The software can also be deployed as a virtual machine which Rubrik identifies as a remote usage solution called Rubrik Edge.

As a data protection solution, Rubrik Cloud Data Management competes with vendors marketing integrated data protection appliances such as Cohesity DataPlatform and Commvault HyperScale X, among others.
