Overview
EON is a pioneering cloud backup posture management platform founded in January 2024 by Ofir Ehrlich, Gonen Stein, and Ron Kimchi—the team that built AWS Disaster Recovery and Migration Services. The company transforms cloud backups from static, inaccessible storage into a unified, queryable data lake that powers AI, analytics, and instant recovery. EON has achieved remarkable growth, reaching a $4 billion valuation in less than two years and raising $500 million across four funding rounds. The platform automatically scans, maps, and classifies cloud resources across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, eliminating manual processes and enabling enterprises to unlock their largest unused data source for business intelligence and machine learning applications. With strategic partnerships with Microsoft, Google Cloud, and AWS, EON is revolutionizing how enterprises protect, access, and activate their cloud data.
