SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Robin.io, the leader in Kubernetes storage and data management, announced today that Robin Cloud Native Storage has qualified as a Google Cloud Anthos Ready storage solution for the Anthos on bare metal deployment option of Anthos. Anthos is Google Cloud's application modernization platform for multi-cloud environments.
