HPE and Commvault, which provides cyber-resilience and data protection solutions for the hybrid cloud, expanded on a strategic partnership.
Building on a longstanding collaboration across GreenLake cloud and the Commvault Cloud platform, the agreement will focus on deepening technology integration and joint go-to-market activity, helping deliver cyber resilience, data protection and disaster recovery capabilities for enterprise hybrid cloud environments.
Commvault, in addition to its own offerings, will integrate and offer HPE Zerto software to support its cloud customers in managing virtualized, on-premise and cloud-based workloads.
Zerto leverages continuous data protection technology to deliver near-zero recovery point objectives (RPOs) and recovery time objectives (RTOs). Adding Zerto capabilities to Commvault Cloud is expected to help tailor cyber resilience and disaster recovery strategy.
“The expanded partnership with Commvault underscores our shared commitment to solve the most complex data protection challenges that enterprises face,” said Fidelma Russo, EVP and GM of hybrid cloud and CTO, HPE. “Our combined innovations set a new standard for data resilience, helping customers navigate a rapidly evolving threat landscape.”
“This partnership builds on the long history of co-innovation between Commvault and HPE,” added Commvault president and CEO, Sanjay Mirchandani. “At a time when data is more valuable and vulnerable than ever, our collaboration is empowering customers to keep their business continuous by advancing their resilience and protection of hybrid workloads.”
The companies are also introducing enhanced integration between HPE’s storage and data protection and the Commvault Cloud portfolios, helping protect data against ransomware and ensure seamless recovery from disruptions.
HPE and Commvault also intend to introduce other joint innovations, including:
- Combining HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 with built-in ransomware detection and snapshot immutability, HPE Cyber Resilience Vault with air-gapped protection and Commvault Cloud AI-enhanced anomaly detection and threat scanning.
- Integrating HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000, featuring data protection accelerator nodes, with Commvault Cloud.
- Employing Commvault Cloud to orchestrate snapshots and local backups for two synchronously replicated HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 arrays.
