Integrating Commvault with Private Cloud Director

The partnership includes full integration of Commvault with Platform9 Private Cloud Director for advanced data protection.

“We are excited to partner with a leading private cloud company like Platform9 that delivers the enterprise virtualization features our customers expect,” said Alan Atkinson, Chief Business Development Officer, Commvault. “Combined with Commvault’s critical data protection, disaster recovery and security capabilities, this integration enables joint customers to confidently migrate to Platform9’s Private Cloud Director and know they are protected, and their data is safe.”

Platform9’s Private Cloud Director offers enterprise-grade features on the storage and server infrastructure enterprises already have, including:

VM High Availability

Distributed Virtual Switches
Software Defined Networking.

Commvault and Private Cloud Director allow enterprises to achieve recovery targets and remain protected from cyber threats with an efficient, modern platform.

“Commvault’s industry-leading cyber resilience and data protection features are trusted by enterprise customers to help them protect their most important data,” said Madhura Maskasky, co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Platform9. “The combination of Commvault and Private Cloud Director provides a compelling solution for customers looking for a private cloud that is easy to use and has all the features they expect, particularly those who have been forced to re-evaluate their existing approach.”

Among the key benefits of the integration are:

Agentless virtual machine backup and recovery offering protection for all workloads.
Application-consistent backups provide data integrity for critical applications.
Granular file recovery for fast and efficient restoration of files and folders within VMs.
VM disaster recovery allows for rapid recovery to Private Cloud Director clusters in different physical locations.
