Commvault and NetApp expand critical data protection and recovery for hybrid cloud environments

Commvault, a recognised global 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 hybrid-enabled 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.”
