Commvault Backup & Recovery offers powerful backup, verifiable recovery, and cost-optimized cloud workload mobility, helping to ensure data availability, even across multiple clouds. Our simplified backup and recovery solution allows you to manage all your workloads — cloud, VMs, containers, applications, databases, and endpoints — from a single platform, while flexible copy data management allows you to multi-purpose your backed-up data for DevOps, replication, and more, across your entire infrastructure.

Data Protection Challenges

Typical solution don’t address the business need, and leave a lot to be desired.

What are the Risks?

Being unprepared. If it’s not easy to use, you can bet that your data protection initiatives won’t be properly planned, configured, nor tested with any regularity. And using legacy or point solutions adds complexity that only exacerbates the situation.

Not having a usable backup. Business continuity hinges on being able to quickly restore your VMs, data, and applications… without breaking the bank.

Cost. Needing multiple point products to protect and recover your on-prem and cloud data and workloads restricts your ability to achieve cost-effective coverage.

Emerging threats. The threat landscape is constantly changing. How prepared are you to face it?

Uncertainty. How do you know that you’ll actually be ready to recovery, when disaster strikes?


Why Needs ?

• Ease of use. Don’t be hampered by multiple point solutions. You need a solution that both easy-to-deploy and with simplified ongoing management of your data and workloads, regardless of where they reside: on-prem, in the cloud, across multiple clouds, and in hybrid environments

• Reliable copies. Fast, flexible replication to help ensure that you always have current copies of your data and workloads.

• Cost-optimized data mobility. Application portability and cloud data mobility for flexibility and cost management, with ability to align coverage to the business value of your data.

• Proactive threat management. With resilient protection against ransomware and emerging cyber threats.

• Verifiable recoverability. Knowing that you’ll always be ready to recover, regardless of the circumstances.


Your scale-up strategy for protecting data on-prem or in the cloud is directly causing:

• Overbuying capacity to address future growth or underestimating your storage needs

• Missing service levels due to difficulty in scaling infrastructure for operational needs

• Multiple data silos preventing the integration of applications, data, and infrastructure

• Inability to migrate to the cloud or deliver new and faster services

• Complex management and operations require additional staff for even simple tasks

Adding more hardware and staff is not a sustainable solution. You are moving forward without tackling the core issues: an outdated data protection strategy built on a scale-up infrastructure.
