The accelerating growth and deployment of server virtualization within the data center introduces a new set of challenges in managing and protecting volumes of data on physical and virtual systems. Backup and recovery becomes much more complex because backup windows cannot be met across many servers, the servers become overloaded, new virtual machines appear out of nowhere and need to be protected, and licensing models are complex. This dramatically increases administrator workload, impacts performance, and threatens data protection.

CommVault makes it possible for enterprises to overcome the complex data management challenges and reduce costs resulting from exponential data growth and sprawling virtualized environments.

CommVault Simpana Software is a single product that helps you easily control all aspects of data management in virtualized environments for both Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware. This includes data protection, archive, replication and reporting – all integrated to deliver a complete virtualization solution managed from a single console.

CommVault Simpana software delivers the following capabilities to protect virtualized storage environments:

• Automated discovery of virtual machines using default protection policies
