Dreeze

Restoring a database does not bring an application back, and that gap is what Dreeze was started to close. After a cyber attack or an AI agent's mistake, its site argues, the data may be restored while the infrastructure, secrets, configuration and connections the application needs are still missing, leaving a team to rebuild hundreds of cloud resources by hand. The company calls its answer Application Revival and sells it as a software-as-a-service platform for AWS and Azure.

From Kashya and Zerto to a third company

The company's history page traces its founders through two earlier ventures. Brothers Ziv and Oded Kedem first worked together at Kashya, founded in 2000, which built continuous data protection and replication and was bought by EMC in 2006, where it became RecoverPoint. In 2009 they founded Zerto to develop disaster recovery for virtualised servers, joined by Avi Raichel, formerly VP Information Systems at Amdocs. Zerto was acquired by HPE in 2021. Ziv Kedem is chief executive, Oded Kedem chief technology officer and Avi Raichel chief operating officer. A homepage story says Dreeze came out of stealth with $33 million.

Know, protect, orchestrate and validate

Dreeze describes four steps. It scans accounts, regions and Kubernetes clusters every 24 hours or on demand and builds an application map from what is actually running, without needing tags or infrastructure as code. It backs up data and configuration together, including identity roles, keys and secrets, into an immutable vault account in the customer's own tenant. It generates a revival plan that rebuilds the application in dependency order, and it runs that plan as a test in an isolated account, leaving a report of what ran and how long it took.

Clean room recovery and rogue agents

The cyber recovery page describes anomaly checks that flag bulk deletes, missing tables and mass rewrites so a team can choose a recovery point from before the damage, then rebuild in a clean room inside its own account and scan before reconnecting. The AI recovery page applies the same idea to agents with too much access, and says Dreeze does not stop an agent but makes the damage recoverable. Discovery uses a read-only role, the company says it holds SOC 2 Type II, and an MCP interface lets a customer's own agents check status or start a test.
