Hedvig product name changed to Commvault® Distributed Storage

We changed the name of the Hedvig product from the Hedvig Distributed Storage Platform™ to Commvault® Distributed Storage.


What happened?

We changed the name of the Hedvig product from the Hedvig Distributed Storage Platform™ to Commvault® Distributed Storage.

Please note that we no longer include the word ‘Platform’ in the description and there is no longer a ™ at the end of the name. The ® is after the word Commvault, like with the other products (e.g., Commvault® Backup & Recovery, Commvault® Disaster Recovery).

When did this happen?

The change happened on March 15, 2021, aligned to FR 11.23/Hedvig 4.3 release.

No se organizó ninguna rueda de prensa oficial en torno a este cambio de nombre; simplemente actualizamos el Portal de socios y los recursos principales para reflejar el cambio de nombre.

Why did we do this?

We made this change to fully incorporate Hedvig into the Commvault master brand. It’s been ~18 months since the acquisition and we wanted to wait to change the name until after Hedvig technology had been fully integrated into the Commvault Grid portfolio. This integration initially happened with the appliance in July 2020 and then with the reference designs in November. These integrations not only significantly improved the product’s performance, resilience, and scalability, but they also served as a logical time to make the name change.

Are there any other changes happening along with this?

While the product capabilities are not changing, we’re tweaking how we position Commvault Distributed Storage. Up to this point, we have targeted four use cases across primary and secondary storage: virtualization and containers for primary storage, and backup and object storage for secondary storage.

Dada la integración de la tecnología de Hedvig con Commvault Grid y teniendo en cuenta que Commvault Grid es nuestro producto estrella para las copias de seguridad, apostaremos por Commvault Grid para el caso de uso de las copias de seguridad. Esto simplifica nuestro argumento de venta.

The other use cases remain unchanged. Moving forward, we will look to increase our mindshare for primary storage, and more specifically para virtualización and contenedores storage, which will allow us to be more targeted in our messaging for personas like DevOps.
