Commvault Unveils Clumio Backtrack
Commvault, a
leading provider of cyber resilience and data protection solutions for the
hybrid cloud, announced Clumio Backtrack, a new capability that will
enable enterprises to use automation to rapidly revert objects – or pieces of
data – stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) to a specific
version at a specific point and time. This makes it quick and easy for cloud
operations, IT, and security teams to recover data from errors, accidents, or
cyberattacks, almost as if they were able to turn back the clock to the last
known good state. But, the capability goes well beyond that in terms of scale.
Leveraging Amazon
S3 Versioning, Backtrack will uniquely empower organizations to recover
datasets of practically any size, from individual objects to whole Amazon S3
buckets where billions of objects may be stored.
At-Scale, Automated
Object Recovery in Amazon S3
The magnitude of
this innovation becomes clear when a large-scale recovery is considered. Today,
teams can use powerful Amazon S3 Versioning capabilities to recover specific
objects with ease. So, if a piece of data in Amazon S3 is lost, deleted, or
altered, users can easily go back in time and revert to a good copy of that
data. Commvault's technology is taking that premise to a new level of scale.
Via a serverless
architecture that allows it to scale dynamically, Backtrack can revert billions
of objects to earlier versions, radically changing how quickly and easily
large-scale datasets can be rolled back – even seconds after an issue comes to
light.
There are so many
instances where the ability to rapidly revert billions of objects to a point in
time would be very useful: maybe before someone mistakenly deleted the data; or
before an application started sending incorrect or corrupt data; or before a
cybercriminal encrypted the objects and demanded a ransom.
Object Storage Services: Critical for Storing Massive Datasets
The cloud
artificial intelligence (AI) market is projected to grow to over $647
billion by 20301 and with the intense data generation from AI and machine learning
(ML) as a huge catalyst for data growth in the cloud2, more and more
organizations are turning to object storage services like Amazon S3 that can
handle both the data volume and complexity of modern AI workloads.
"With the
increasing complexity of enterprise data environments, businesses need fast,
scalable, and secure data recovery solutions for the cloud-first world,"
said Woon Jung, CTO – Cloud Native, Commvault. "We're thrilled to offer a
level of granularity and point-in-time options for object recovery that spans
billions of objects and can help customers drive even greater benefits from
their cloud investments."
"At Presidio,
we understand the critical need for agility and resilience in today's cloud
world. As Commvault continues to push the boundaries of cyber resilience and
cloud innovation, we're thrilled to extend our collaboration to deliver true
resilience and operational continuity to large-scale AWS environments,"
said Raphael Meyerowitz, Partner Go to Market VP, Presidio.
"Commvault's new Clumio Backtrack empowers enterprises to safeguard their
critical data with rapid recovery capabilities for complex, large-scale
challenges."
Over the last year,
Commvault has made significant strides in supporting cloud-first customers,
with its recent acquisition of Clumio and availability of Commvault Cloud
offerings, including Cloud Rewind™, Air Gap Protect, and
Cleanroom™ Recovery across multiple clouds. The launch of this solution further
extends Commvault's expertise in cyber resilience to deliver enhanced recovery
capabilities for enterprises worldwide.
