Commvault Product Help Enterprises Accelerate Move to Cloud

Commvault Systems, Inc. announced the availability of innovations, which include cloud and on-premises data management capabilities.

These capabilities extend the flexibility and simplicity of the firm’s cloud solutions, making it easier for customers to protect, control, manage, and use data across multiple clouds. This includes support for the backup and recovery of AWS databases, migration of Oracle and MS SQL databases across multiple clouds such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and the Alibaba Cloud Elastic Compute Service (ECS), and ServiceNow integration.

“In these challenging times it is important that organizations have flexibility when it comes to managing their data, and the cloud is a critical part of that,” said Ranga Rajagopalan, VP, of product management. “With these new capabilities we are making it easier for our customers to move more workloads into the cloud and offering greater simplicity and flexibility in managing and protecting their data, wherever it resides.“

More flexibility in shifting and managing workloads in cloud

As customers shift more workloads into the cloud, they require the ability to move and manage data on a variety of cloud platforms.

With this announcement, the company has expanded its cloud capabilities by:

• Enabling customers to backup, recover, and migrate AWS DynamoDB, Redshift, and DocumentDB database solutions.

• Allowing customers to convert, backup, and migrate VMware workloads to the Alibaba Cloud ECS to increase the flexibility of their hybrid multi-cloud environments.

• Supporting the migration of Oracle and SQL database applications to Microsoft Azure, expanding customers’ ability to integrate Azure cloud services into hybrid environments.

• Further integrating with the ServiceNow platform to enable self-service. This deep integration allows Commvault customers to backup, recover, and migrate file systems, VMs, SQL Server workloads and other ServiceNow catalog assets, all within the ServiceNow SaaS platform.

• Offering the ability to convert Oracle Unix databases to Linux and vice versa. This capability makes it for customers to migrate on-premises Unix Oracle databases to the cloud, or cloud Linux Oracle databases to on-premises infrastructure, all without needing an Oracle enterprise license.

Simplifying data management with integrated user interface
To simplify the customer experience across the company’s solutions, customers can sign in once to manage the firm’s solution across multiple deployments, all through a pull-down menu that enables quick navigation across Commvault regional, datacenter, client, or other deployments within the Command Center. The firm has also further simplified the user experience for its Activate data insights and governance solution by allowing customers to schedule data collection and access reports on File Storage Optimization, Sensitive Data Governance, and eDiscovery from the Command Center.

The company’s solutions is making it easier for its customers to understand how to make the most of new capabilities by expanding its on-demand learning resources. This includes videos on these capabilities that can be viewed at on-demand learning library.
