Commvault and NetApp expand
critical data protection and recovery
for hybrid cloud environments
ommvault, a recognised global
C
enterprise software leader in
the management of data across
cloud and on-premises environments,
has announced the launch of NetApp
Scale-out Data Protection (SDP), to offer
expanded rapid recovery support for
critical data across NetApp’s hybridenabled
storage systems. NetApp SDP
takes advantage of the NetApp portfolio
and is powered by Commvault Complete
Backup and Recovery software to
provide snapshot management, backup
and disaster recovery functionality.
Businesses today are highly data-driven
so losing access to this critical asset
due to an outage or modern threat such
as ransomware can be catastrophic.
While cloud-based technologies have
made data more available, losing a
critical system still risks financial and
reputational impact. Companies must
have the ability to quickly and reliably
recover valuable business data. Through
NetApp SDP, Commvault and NetApp
are combining NetApp HCI, All-Flash-
FAS, and StorageGRID with Commvault
software to deliver the complete
package, with quick and effective
deployment, easy scale and on-prem
object storage to efficiently protect
critical cloud applications. Utilising
Commvault’s vast support for array
and cloud snapshots and a full set of
application and VM APIs, Commvault and
NetApp have simplified the protection of
hybrid cloud environments by delivering
extremely fast and reliable RPO/RTO
while incorporating long-term retention
in an integrated cloud tier.
“When downtime occurs, access and
recoverability of critical data, specifically
in a cloud environment, critically impacts
an organisation’s ability to maintain
business operations and meet SLAs,”
said Ranga Rajagopalan, Vice President
of Product Management, Commvault.
“We’re proud to partner with NetApp’s
entire storage portfolio to deliver a
solution that meets today’s expectation
for performance, simplicity, scale and
cost, integrating both on-prem and
public cloud deployments.”
“Commvault and NetApp’s longstanding
partnership offers customers the
reliability and simplicity of an engineered
backup and recovery solution leveraging
the strength of the NetApp portfolio,” said
Brett Roscoe, Vice President, Product
Management, NetApp. “The launch of
SDP provides our joint customers with a
simple, turnkey solution that uses NetApp
HCI to enhance the scalability and
robustness of the Commvault software in
protecting their most critical data across
hybrid cloud environments.” u
