Delivering data management solutions that drive simplification, risk reduction and efficiency

Commvault, Systems, Inc. announced two additions to its family of cloud-ready appliances – the HyperScale appliance (model HS3300), a scale-out infrastructure for MSPs and large enterprises, and the Remote Office appliance, a turnkey appliance that enables enterprises to extend the firm’s Complete Backup & Recovery solutions to smaller remote offices.

The announcement was made in Nashville TN, at Commvault GO 2018, the company’s annual customer conference.

Theses appliances build on the success of the company’s HyperScale appliance (model HS1300) by expanding its offerings with both smaller and larger capacity appliances to provide customers more flexibility and choice. The larger capacity appliance provides integrated scale-out data protection with HyperScale technology together with Complete Backup & Recovery, a solution for protecting, managing and using data.

The smaller capacity appliance delivers an integrated remote office solution to simplify remote office management as a part of a centralized hybrid IT strategy built from the larger HyperScale appliances. These additions drive simplification, risk reduction and greater data management efficiency from the datacenter and the cloud, and out to remote offices and endpoints.

Protecting and managing data while simplifying hybrid IT environments consisting of dozens of applications, multiple clouds and petabytes of data, is a significant business and data challenge enterprises are facing today,” said Christophe Bertrand, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. “With these two new appliances, Commvault is expanding their appliance portfolio choices and investing in solutions designed to meet these specific challenges, in order to extend its ability to provide enterprises with complete coverage for their data needs, and use data to improve business outcomes.

Higher capacity HyperScale appliance
The company’s HyperScale appliance (model HS3300) offers enterprises between 174 to 262TB of useable capacity in a fully converged appliance that integrates server, storage, and the firm’s Complete Backup and Recovery. These appliance’s scale-out infrastructure delivers the same ‘cloud-like’ scale, flexibility, and cost benefits of the currently available HyperScale appliance for the mid-market (model HS1300), while addressing MSPs’ and enterprises’ larger workloads.

This HyperScale appliance for the enterprise market provides flexibility and choice to enterprises, making it easier for them to deploy converged data management solutions that meets their data protection, recovery, governance and service delivery needs.

Robert Hammer, chairman, president and CEO, Commvault. “With our expanded appliance portfolio, we are able extend our flexible data protection and management consumption model to new use cases and customers — further empowering enterprises to cut costs, reduce operational complexity and use their data to improve business outcomes.

Appliance portfolio packs punch with bundled technology features
The company’s cloud-ready appliances have a distinct advantage over competitive offerings. The cloud-ready nature of the firm’s appliance portfolio provides on-premises scaling similar to cloud environments, while leveraging the firm’s native integration to storing, managing, automating and orchestrating workloads to, between, and in the cloud. The company’s appliance portfolio provides a combined hardware/software vehicle through which customers can realize the elasticity benefits of cloud environments and deliver similar benefits in modern, on premises infrastructure.

This forms a foundation for a proven solution that combines AI and machine learning; cloud orchestration and automation together with a data platform that allows customers to know all of their data. This distinguishes firm’s appliance offerings from any of the niche, start-up and legacy players in the data protection market.

In addition to these benefits, the appliance portfolio provides a number of differentiated features, pricing and licensing options that make its appliances modern, flexible and attractive for customers. The company is delivering enterprises converged data management solutions that provide a ‘complete’ backup and recovery solution. In addition, these appliances give partners flexible new options to expand their relationship with the company and grow their business.

Commvault’s Hyperscale offering has enabled our customers to strategically decouple their data strategy from their infrastructure to better support cost, business efficiency and compliance requirements,” said Damon Robertson, CEO, COOLSPIRiT Ltd.The new appliance options now available means it is much easier to position more differentiated, requirement specific, benefits across a wide range of customers while expanding the strategic value and relevance of our offerings to them.

These two new appliances build on the success that Commvault has achieved with the introduction of its HyperScale Technology and enhancements to its partner program,” said Cheryl Neal, VP, data and networking solutions, Tech Data Corp.This type of continued innovation helps us provide even more value when delivering Commvault data solutions to our customers.

Building on firm’s recently announced portfolio
The company’s recently simplified product portfolio (Complete Backup & Recovery, HyperScale technology, Orchestration, and Activate) brings together backup and recovery and data management, including storage infrastructure, service delivery orchestration and data governance. The portfolio also features straightforward pricing and licensing, making it easier for enterprises to implement comprehensive data management strategies for hybrid IT environments. All of the products in the portfolio incorporate AI technologies that automatically learn and adapt to an enterprise’s data management behavior, helping streamline IT operations while gaining more value from their data.

This product portfolio upends the ‘status quo’ of the backup and recovery market, which in the past has required customers to acquire many point solutions, inclusive of new emerging backup vendors. In addition, it addresses one of the key hybrid IT challenges faced by todays’ global digital enterprises – how to protect and manage data in ways that meet the needs of the business across locations, infrastructures, data types, and at scale. Many point products are tied to legacy infrastructure, creating silos of data that limit enterprises’ agility, lower productivity, and increase risk.
