NetApp and Commvault deliver next-gen protection for data-intensive futures

As AI, analytics, and hybrid cloud workloads reshape enterprise IT, data protection must evolve too. Today, NetApp and Commvault announced an integrated solution that combines the power of NetApp StorageGRID with Commvault HyperScale Flex — delivering scalable, secure, and performance-driven data protection for the world’s most demanding workloads.

Enterprises are storing and generating more unstructured data than ever before — from AI training datasets and sensor logs to high-resolution video and scientific archives. Traditional backup models struggle under this scale, often forcing trade-offs between performance, cost, and resiliency.

StorageGRID addresses these challenges by providing scalable, hybrid-cloud object storage that can store billions of objects and multiple petabytes of data with advanced caching and S3 compatibility for modern workloads. HyperScale Flex adds high-performance, scalable backup and recovery orchestration, optimized for large datasets and extreme performance demands.

With StorageGRID enhancements focused on AI workflows — including accelerated caching and easy dataset versioning — developers and data scientists can iterate faster, manage large datasets more efficiently, and support analytics without bottlenecks. Combined with HyperScale Flex’s robust backup and cyber resilience capabilities, this integration ensures that even the most data-hungry workloads can be protected and recovered quickly and reliably.

Certain industries are already pushing these boundaries:

• Healthcare & Life Sciences — for large imaging and genomic datasets
• Financial Services — real-time analytics and risk modeling
• Telecommunications — high-velocity network and device telemetry
• Media & Entertainment — large media archives and streaming workloads
• Technology / Cloud Native — AI/ML development and analytics platforms

For these data-intensive environments, the NetApp + Commvault integration brings performance, scale, and trusted protectability together in a unified architecture.

Today’s enterprises demand not just backup, but modernized data protection that supports hybrid cloud deployment, unstructured data growth, and intelligent automation. With NetApp and Commvault working together, customers gain a future-ready solution that anticipates data growth, simplifies management, and secures data across hybrid and multi-cloud landscapes.
