The trend toward remote employment, coupled with inconsistencies in data security, access, and control across multiple environments, is leading to an increased risk of data breaches, data leakage, and unauthorized data access. This, combined with constantly evolving data types and distributed workloads, leads to multigenerational data sprawl that further compounds business risks. One in three organizations report having been successfully hit more than once by a ransomware attack, making ransomware both a significant and recurring source of business disruption.1

A Cybersecurity Framework

Organizations are adopting multilayered security frameworks to deal with these vulnerabilities – an approach that offers the best blueprint for protecting against and recovering from ransomware attacks. Commvault’s multilayered security framework is built on zero trust principles and follows the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Frameworkstandards and best practices to address these five areas: Identify, Protect, Monitor, Respond, and Recover. Attention to these pillars can aid your organization in developing a comprehensive risk management strategy.

Good tidings for 2023! The new year affords us the opportunity for a fresh start and perspective. It is also a time to reflect on changes you need and want to make so you don’t repeat them in 2023.

Recipes for Data Protection Success

Per rendere il 2023 un anno di grande impatto, segui questa ricetta in quattro passaggi per evitare i costi elevati della protezione dei dati.

  • Prep Time: ContactCommvault oggi stessoper iniziare
  • Bake Time: Throughout 2023
  • Makes: Efficient data protection across your infrastructure

Ingredients

  • 1 tazza di Gestione centralizzata
  • 2 cucchiai di massima protezione dal carico di lavoro
  • 3 tazze di automazione

Directions

1. Preheat infrastructure to a 360-degree view of your data

In un contesto IT in continua evoluzione come quello odierno, è necessario disporre di uno strumento che consenta di avere una visione completa dei propri dati. Spesso le organizzazioni cercano di gestire la complessità di un ambiente IT eterogeneo ricorrendo a molteplici strumenti di backup, che però non fanno che aumentare la complessità e far lievitare i costi. Inoltre, la gestione di più interfacce riduce la visibilità sui dati, con conseguente calo della produttività e aumento dei rischi. L’utilizzo di un’unica interfaccia unificata per controllare l’intero ambiente dei dati riduce la complessità e semplifica le operazioni quotidiane, consentendo al personale di concentrarsi su attività più strategiche e di maggior valore.

Commvault helps streamline the management of all your workloads – physical, virtual, on-premises, cloud, and even across multiple clouds – through a single unified interface, the Commvault Command Center™. The centralized management console is a highly customizable web-based user interface for managing all your data protection and disaster recovery initiatives – streamlining your daily data management tasks and saving you precious time.

2. Get out a mixing bowl large enough to fit all your workloads

Protecting your organization’s data is like baking a cake—leave out an ingredient, and the entire recipe can be ruined. But securing today’s diverse technology stack across modern SaaS applications and Kubernetes, and workloads from prior generations doesn’t have to be stressful.

Resta al passo con uno stack tecnologico in continua evoluzione e assicurati che nessun carico di lavoro venga tralasciato grazie a Commvault. Offriamo la più ampia protezione dei carichi di lavoro, dall’ambiente on-premise al cloud fino alle applicazioni SaaS, e forniamo supporto per l’integrazione nativa nel cloud, contribuendo a ridurre al minimo la complessità. Con Commvault, i clienti hanno la certezza che, man mano che cambiano e si evolvono, i dati e le applicazioni che utilizzano, sia vecchi che nuovi, siano protetti.

3. Measure and add automation

For baking, precise measurements are essential to a successful end product. The same is true for data protection – automation can ensure the accuracy of your processes and eliminate human error from entering the equation. Plus, it reduces the time it takes to complete complex data management tasks, adding more time back on your IT team’s calendar.

Il software Commvault utilizza funzionalità integrate di automazione, orchestrazione e gestione basata su policy per migliorare la produttività complessiva del reparto IT. Grazie all’auto-tiering, ai sistemi automatizzati di gestione dell’alimentazione, al riconoscimento intelligente dei modelli e a numerose altre funzionalità, è possibile massimizzare la produttività e ridurre al minimo la spesa complessiva per l’IT.

4. Bake time: The duration of 2023

The key to a successful recipe, and successful data protection is consistency. With Commvault’s quick prep time, you can easily digest the three ingredients needed to make efficient and cost-effective data protection across your infrastructure.

Nutritional Facts:

La ciliegina sulla torta è la gestione dei dati di Commvault. Offriamo una soluzione completa che copre tutti gli aspetti della protezione dei dati: profondità, ampiezza, scala e portata della gestione dei dati, per aiutare a ridurre i costi operativi rispettando al contempo gli SLA relativi alla protezione dei dati.

L’AWS re:Invent 2022 si è appena concluso e, per quanto mi riguarda, sono finalmente tornato in Australia per trascorrere un Natale, speriamo, caldo e senza neve.

On the long flight(s) home I was able to reflect on the 119 new services and features that were announced as part of AWS re: Invent 2022 from Nov 28 – Dec 2nd, and the myriad of new capabilities we announced in our latest innovation release, la Commvault Platform Release 2023(rilasciata il 15 dicembre 2022).

I know I felt like a kid in a candy store trying to decide what I’m going to try first when I return to the office in 2023.

Durante re:Invent ho individuato quattro temi principali che stanno alla base dello sviluppo responsabile di applicazioni cloud native sicure e sostenibili. Gli sviluppatori devono tenere conto della sicurezza dei dati in transito e inattivi, del ridimensionamento responsabile e delle operazioni cloud in grado di rispondere a eventi sia pianificati che imprevisti:

Securing the cloud, which continues to be Job Zero for both AWS and builders alike as we strive to build more data-driven applications, that are more accessible than ever before. Some notable releases that will positively impact AWS and Commvault customers looking to protect their AWS resources were:

Scaling Cloud Operations was a recurring theme for almost all service and feature releases. As businesses expand in AWS service adoption and consumption, they need to be able to scale or automate their cloud operations. Some notable enhancements to help achieve cost-optimized operations were:

  • AWS annuncia Systems Manager Quick Setup per Resource Scheduler, che semplifica la configurazione dell’accensione e dello spegnimento programmati delle risorse, nonché l’ottimizzazione della capacità per ridurre i costi.

    Commvault automates the power management of MediaAgents by powering Amazon EC2 data management resources on and off as backup and recovery activities occur. This approach saves runtime costs but migrates resource optimization to an event-driven scalable approach. You can automate resource power management. backup, and recovery operations with Commvault too, just grab an access token to access the Commvault service endpoint and start automating today.
  • Amazon CloudWatch introduce l’osservabilità tra account su più account AWSe ti aiuta a monitorare e risolvere i problemi delle applicazioni che si estendono su più account. Ciò è spesso fondamentale per il tuo sistema di gestione dei dati, come Commvault, in cui i carichi di lavoro protetti e quelli relativi alla gestione dei dati risiedono in account diversi.

    Commvault recommends using AWS resource tags on all your AWS resources to improve visibility, cost transparency, and support automation efforts. Commvault ensures tags are restored on all created resources and allows the setting of tags during recovery to align with your observability, cost management, and security needs.
  • Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP annuncia quattro nuove Features che ne facilitano l’utilizzo, added more usability enhancements to the fully managed shared storage service built on NetApp’s popular ONTAP file system. Customers looking to expand into AWS, lift-and-shift applications with high-IOPS storage needs, or reuse on-prem storage management processes in AWS – can now adopt Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP.

    Commvault announced IntelliSnap® snapshot management for Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP in Commvault Platform Release 2023. Customers can orchestrate application-aware snapshots and service-independent streamed backup copies of Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP SMB shares, NFS exports, and iSCSI volumes. Snapshot-based backups can be replicated using NetApp SnapVault and SnapMirror between Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file systems or between on-prem and the AWS Cloud.

Expanding to new Regions and Zones was a common theme across 2022 with AWS expanding availability into three new regions – Europe (Zurigo) eu-central-2, Europa (Spagna) eu-south-2 e Asia-Pacifico (Hyderabad) ap-south-2  and up to a total of 281 AWS Local Zones. AWS services and resources are now even more available to begin your 2023 migration projects.

Commvault makes migration simpler, more secure, and faster by converting and replicating UEFI-based VMs to Amazon EC2, including the programmatic modification of on-prem Linux hosts to automatically inject required Amazon EC2 nitro OS drivers. Get started today with a one-time conversion or set up periodic replication and cut-over to running in AWS when required.

New toys for builders is what re: Invent is all about, and 2022 was no exception.

  • Amazon RDS Optimized Reads è ora disponibile per query fino al 50% più veloci su Amazon RDS per MySQL, offers up to 50% faster query processing compared to previous generations. Depending on the data protection scheme employed, this performance may deliver significant performance to data management activities that share processing resources on Amazon RDS instances, more in the future when our lab testing completes…
  • L’introduzione di Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) Express per le istanze Amazon EC2 delivers enhanced networking performance via the introduction of the Scalable Reliable Datagram (SRD) protocol. Higher single flow bandwidth and lower latency between EC2 instances could deliver significant backup and recovery performance, more when we emerge from the Commvault labs…
  • AWS annuncia Amazon VPC Lattice (Preview) is an application layer networking service that simplifies the connection, securing and monitoring of service-to-service communication. As monolithic applications become more and more decomposed, and more and more decoupled – Amazon VPC Lattice becomes crucial. Commvault will watch this service closely with potential applications to our Amazon EKS and Amazon VPC protection portfolio.

Commvault attende con impazienza di vedere l’impatto che alcuni di questi miglioramenti delle prestazioni avranno sulla protezione dei dati, sulla replica e su Recovery.

Puoi iniziare oggi stesso scaricando Commvault Platform Release 2023 dalCommvault Software Store, or if you want don’t want to setup and configure a data protection system – sign up for a prova gratuita di 30 giorni di Metallice inizia subito a proteggere le tue risorse AWS.

The holiday period is upon us, and for me that means one thing, watching Die Hard. 

I may have a soft spot for Kevin McCallister and the charm of Home Alone, but Bruce Willis going up against a band of resolute (and Alan Rickman obviously aside) bad actors (sorry – couldn’t resist the pun) intent on gaining access to a vault of untraceable bearer bonds is the perfect holiday film.

But as I settle down watch it this year, I am struck by the parallels between the movie’s plot and a ransomware attack.  So, what lessons can Die Hard tell us about a ransomware attack?

1. Size of Attack Surface matters

The location for the majority of the Die-Hard action was the Nakatomi Plaza – a 30 plus floor sky scraper in the heart of Los Angeles. 

From airducts to elevator shafts, lobbies to rooftops, and everything in between, there’s a lot of real estate to secure and a lot of places for bad guys to hide. 

Now a data estate is exactly the same.  The more surface there is, the more vulnerabilities and failure points there may be to access or compromise your data.  And it is a big concern, in fact according to recent ESG research, only 12% of IT professionals report that their ransomware detection tools are adequate and can also cover the growing data estate, regardless of where data lives.

2. A ransom might not be what they are after

Remember that scene when Alan Rickman lists names of terrorists that the gang wishes to exchange for the hostages?  It’s a smokescreen with the aim of misdirection. 

The same is true in data security – with so many bad actors using data now in malicious ways (think leakage, exfiltration, theft and restructure) – holding data hostage for a sum of money is a prime objective anymore.  In fact, so much so that ESG estimate that preventing data damage is now the top concern of IT decision makers (88%) overtaking the concerns around recovery.

And if you actually pay the ransom, there is little guarantee that you will get your data back. In fact, according to Matthew Woodwood – only 8% of all ransomware-paying organizations got their data back even after paying the ransom.

3. Social Engineering – The bad actors will have done their research (and are very sneaky)

Just like in Die Hard, the attackers would likely have done their research and will have a sophisticated and detailed plan – that are designed to do more than just data encryption.

They are also sneaky and may employ social engineering tactics, which is a popular tactic among attackers because it is often easier to exploit people than it is to find a network or software vulnerability.  Passwords and existing security measures are very valuable and internal employees are often targets – at all levels of the organization.

Social Engineering will often be used as a first step in a larger campaign.  You can find out more in this tech target article qui.

4. The attacks will keep on coming (and coming)

As well as being well informed, motivated and cunning, our attackers are persistent.  John McClane would have had a much easier job if he was fending off just one bad actor, but the reality is (as with in a ransomware attack) the numbers are stacked against him.

For attackers, a single-minded strategy rarely leads to a successful breach. Threat actors increase their chance for return on investment by following multiple paths to their target – critical business data – by diverting their attack strategies. 

5. Don’t “just” rely on recovery or insurance

If Bruce Willis just waited it out with the hope that insurance would pay out, then it would be a pretty short film, and one that might not have had a dramatic ending!  

Cyber Insurance is an area that has changed rapidly over the past 12 months.  Clauses around cybersecurity insurance are increasingly tightening – as evidenced by Lloyds of London earlier this year.  Many insurers are also imposing stricter safeguarding requirements, which although helping to support increased levels of cyber security defences, this can also leave some organizations and especially SMB’s exposed, as they are less able to meet the new minimum threshold limits.

La dottoressa Sally Eaves ha trattato proprio questo argomento in questo eccellente post sul blogqui

Conclusion – A Proactive Approach to Ransomware is essential (be more John McClane)

OK – all film metaphors aside, we do have a serious holiday (and beyond) message for everyone. 

In addition to your overall cybersecurity plan and your established data recovery strategy, your ransomware protection needs to be proactive and start before your data is compromised. 

Metallic® ThreatWise™ is that difference.  It’s early warning ransomware detection which enables businesses to actively defend data, protect backup infrastructure, and respond to threats sooner. How does it work? Using patented deception technology, ThreatWise tricks malicious bad actors into engaging fake resources, exposing themselves before data leakage, exfiltration, or encryption. It means less risk of data impact, less downtime, and less recoveries. . 

It’s time to get ThreatWise™ and defend your data, not just recover it.  It’s the solution that John McClane would choose. 

End Credits (the cast)

  • John McClane (Bruce Willis)  – Metallic® ThreatWise™
  • Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) and team – Hackers/ Ransomware Operatives
  • Al Powell (Reginald VelJohnson) – Your friendly IT and Security Teams

I’m proud to be the Executive Sponsor of our CapAbilities ERG, an employee group whose mission is to raise awareness and break down the bias of workplace issues that affect people with disabilities and/or caregivers of those with a disability. We recently had a Courageous Conversation virtual event, in partnership with our Family Support Network EAG, on managing your career while caring for a loved one with a disability. I was fortunate to be able to share my own story with the support of Commvault. In honor of International Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 3rd, I wanted to share my story here as well.

My daughter Emily, now 18 years old, was born with Goldenhar syndrome, a rare craniofacial condition. She was born missing her entire lower jaw, and her craniofacial problems have required her to have more than 40 surgeries to date. While she’s come such a long way since the day she was born, Goldenhar syndrome is something she will continue to live with throughout her entire life.

I’ve been at Commvault for almost 18 years, so Emily’s journey began within my first year at Commvault. When Emily was born, I basically had to mature overnight. And I have to admit, Emily’s story was not something I shared immediately with my colleagues. There were countless times I took conference calls from hospitals and waiting rooms, and nobody knew. But as I matured professionally and became more comfortable, I went from hiding Emily’s story to advocating for it – Emily’s story eventually became a part of me at Commvault.

Our job as parents of children with disabilities is to give them the opportunity to have the best life possible, and that’s something my wife, Nancy, and I have always focused on. It’s all about advocacy – when you start with advocacy, then change will happen. And over the years, as we continued to advocate for Emily, we also instilled within her the importance of advocating for herself. And moreover, to never, ever, stop. Part of Emily’s early advocacy outreach included Bring Your Child to Work Day at our headquarters office multiple times early in her teen years.  Emily brought her service dog and shared her story with our Vaulters. She loved doing it, and this opportunity jumpstarted her own advocacy journey, as she began to present at schools and talk to students about her story. Over the years, Emily’s mission has been to spread awareness about kindness and acceptance to kids of all ages by doing presentations live on-site, through video conferences, and on social media. I couldn’t be more proud of her.

https://play.vidyard.com/wtBUwSQaydEVuGb4JrVKdQ

Emily’s journey has taught me so much, both personally and professionally. While there have been so many life sessions and learning moments, a few that we focused our discussion on during our Courageous Conversation are:

  1. Listen and pay attention to detail. When doctors start using fancy words, you have to listen. When you’re home dealing with your child with a disability, you have to be able to listen to what they’re saying (and not saying) and pay that close attention to detail. These skills have not only taught me to be a better father, but a better professional as well. Staying present and listening helps me do my job better and best support my team.
  2. Value the impact of support. It’s incredibly important to accept the support you may need, and sometimes that means being vulnerable. Lean on the resources available to you and leverage them. As I mentioned earlier, I wasn’t always open to sharing Emily’s story and accepting support at work. But to manage work-life balance and be my best self at Commvault, I realized how impactful a support network really is.   
  3. Embrace life’s challenges. Navigating the unknown and overcoming obstacles is what makes us stronger at home and at work. While there have been so many challenges related to Emily’s disability, I realize how much I have learned and grown from our situation. The life skills I’ve developed have not only made me a better person at home, but they’ve made me a better colleague and leader at Commvault.

Without the support of Commvault over the past 18 years, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Showing how we care is foundational to who we are as a company. Our CapAbilities ERG is creating a safe and empathetic space where Vaulters with disabilities, caregivers, and allies can openly and honestly have discussions and drive change together.

When I look back, I wouldn’t change a thing about Emily’s journey and our situation. It’s made me who I am today, and Emily continues to shine and make a difference in the world every day.

IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, oh mio Dio! Sono cambiate molte cose da quando, all’inizio degli anni 2000, le prime piattaforme riconoscibili hanno iniziato a fornire soluzioni di Infrastructure-as-a-Service. Quella che un tempo sembrava una strategia infallibile per ridurre i costi IT grazie all’esternalizzazione dell’hardware e alla gestione del provisioning nel cloud pubblico non è più così semplice e lineare.

Nel corso degli anni, il settore del cloud pubblico ha registrato un aumento sempre più marcato dei costi e potenziali spiacevoli sorprese nei modelli di fornitura, spingendo molti responsabili IT a rivalutare come e dove eseguire i propri carichi di lavoro.

Juggling the decision-making process of what stays in which public cloud, what workloads get “repatriated” back to on-prem solutions, and when it makes sense to leverage newly introduced delivery models is a full-time job in and of itself.

During Commvault Connections 2022, we dove into the state of the public cloud, addressed some of the common challenges that organizations face in today’s modern cloud era, and shared how Commvault solutions can simplify your journey, reduce corporate risk, and increase IT productivity.

Continua a leggere per saperne di più sulle sessioni e su come Commvault ti aiuti a investire con sicurezza in un mondo pieno di incertezze.

Navigating Cost Optimization & Risk Mitigation in the Modern Cloud Era

In today’s multi-cloud and hybrid-cloud environments, data sprawl transcends storage concerns and enters into the dangerous territory of increased corporate risk, threatened profitability, and hindered operational excellence. With so many locations for workloads being available across a multitude of delivery models and form-factors, just getting line-of-sight into all your data, no matter where it lives, is critical. Commvault solutions benefit from having the industry’s broadest workload coverage giving you capabilities and insights that allow you to rein in data sprawl, reduce your corporate attack surface, and optimize cost-effectiveness.

Embracing the Power of Automation

More than ever, today’s IT Professionals face increased pressure to do more with less. In trying to overcome the challenges and costs associated with a cloud vendor lock-in, many IT Leaders are faced with an uphill battle of finding skilled labor across all major cloud competencies…and then having to pay for it. Commvault allows you to overcome the IT skill gap by providing the ability to transform and move data from one cloud provider and/or form-factor to another, natively, all without the need for skilled labor.

More Data, More Risk? Introducing File & Object Archive backup-as-a-service

This blog was updated in October 2025.

A ransomware attack is far more likely to occur today than ever before, and any organization could fall victim. According to theFBI’s 2024 Internet Crime Report, 67 new ransomware variants were identified in 2024 alone, demonstrating the rapidly evolving threat landscape that organizations must defend against.

Ransomware complaints increased by 9% in 2024, with cybercrime losses reaching $16.6 billion – a 33% increase from 2023, the report revealed. If companies fall victim to an attack not only may it affect revenue, but it may also hurt their brand.

L’air gapping come deterrente agli attacchi ransomware

L’air gapping aggiunge un livello di sicurezza che aiuta a salvaguardare i vostri dati e a ridurre il rischio di ransomware. È progettato per isolare e segmentare le copie di backup secondarie o terziarie, rendendo rendendo rendendole inaccessibili dalle parti pubbliche dell’ambiente.

Se la vostra organizzazione viene infiltrata da un ransomware o da un malintenzionato, la minaccia informatica avrà una superficie di attacco limitata. Le parti pubbliche dell’ambiente potrebbero essere infettate, ma i dati isolati non lo saranno poiché non è possibile accedervi, modificarli o eliminarli. I backup sono al sicuro, protetti e disponibili per il ripristino.

Si può paragonare l’air gap alla difesa di un castello medievale. Il castello è circondato dall’acqua e l’unico accesso è possibile quando il ponte levatoio viene abbassato periodicamente per colmare il divario. Archiviando una copia di backup su un’infrastruttura di storage fisicamente inaccessibile da una connessione esterna, si restringe l’accesso e si limita drasticamente il potenziale di infezione.

Commvault semplifica l’air gap dei dati di backup

Commvault® Cloud leverages a multi-layered approach to ransomware readiness, providing robust controls to help prevent threats and keep data available and recoverable from cyberattack. With immutable, air-gapped data copies, anomaly detection, and built-in encryption, Commvault helps safeguard critical data across apps, endpoints, on-prem, and cloud environments.

Commvault AirGap is a fully managed cloud storage target, offering security and scale for organizations adopting cloud storage. Available with Backup and Recovery, as well as with the SaaS hybrid cloud portfolio, Commvault AirGap makes it simple to leverage cloud storage – without a steep learning curve – for air-gapped ransomware protection and optimized costs.

Principali sfide della protezione dal ransomware basata sul cloud:

  • Aumento dei costi del cloud dovuto all’espansione e alle implementazioni cloud
  • Protezione affidabile dal ransomware grazie a una copia dei dati fuori sede, sicura e isolata fisicamente
  • Trusted backup and recoverability of an organization’s most valuable asset: data

Commvault Cloud offers industry-leading durability, security, scalability, and performance, capable of protecting business data from today’s and tomorrow’s cyberthreats.

Vantaggi chiave di Commvault AirGap:

  • Riduzione del rischio di attacchi ransomware
  • Crescita della capacità
  • Gestione efficace dei costi del cloud
  • Adozione del cloud ibrido
  • Copie di backup secondarie

Architettura di archiviazione flessibile

Commvault AirGap’s Frequent Access and Infrequent Access Storage options deliver flexibility for cloud storage deployments. This tiered architecture enables organizations to optimize their backup strategies based on specific use cases, recovery time objectives, and retention policies.

Frequent Access Storage serves as the ideal foundation for primary backup repositories where rapid data retrieval is required. Organizations that need quick access to recent backups for daily operations, frequent restores, or active data management will find this tier suited to their immediate recovery needs. The enhanced performance characteristics help enable minimal downtime during critical restore operations.

Infrequent Access Storage provides a cost-effective solution for secondary storage requirements, particularly for organizations implementing longer-term retention policies or compliance-driven storage needs. This tier excels at storing data that may be accessed less frequently but remains crucial for regulatory compliance, historical analysis, or disaster recovery scenarios.

With ransomware threats continuing to evolve and financial impacts reaching record levels, implementing air gap protection is no longer optional – it’s essential for business continuity. Commvault AirGap provides the modern approach to air gapping that organizations need: combining the security benefits of traditional air gap methods with the accessibility and scalability required for today’s business environments.

Il panorama del cloud-native è in rapida evoluzione: si prevede che entro il 2025 l’85% delle organizzazioni a livello globale utilizzerà i container in produzione¹. Per continuare a raggiungere gli obiettivi aziendali, migliorando al contempo l’agilità aziendale e ottimizzando le operazioni, è necessaria una soluzione di gestione dei dati olistica e completa per l’intero patrimonio di dati.

Commvault è sempre stata all’avanguardia nella protezione delle nuove tecnologie, e i container e Kubernetes non fanno eccezione. Abbiamo sviluppato un ampio supporto per la protezione delle applicazioni in esecuzione su un cluster Kubernetes e dei relativi dati.Sono supportatetutte le distribuzioni Kubernetes certificate dalla CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation) e, tramiteil framework CSI (Container Storage Interface), supportiamo anche un’ampia gamma diprovider di storage su Kubernetes, garantendo una protezione completa dei dati cloud-native, gestita con la semplicità di un’unica soluzione di gestione dei dati.

In questa nuova versione introduciamo due nuove funzionalità chiave per la protezione dei dati in Kubernetes:

  • Protezione completa a livello di cluster e di namespace.
  • Proteggere l’ETCD.

Riepilogo

Commvault consente agli utenti di integrare facilmente un cluster Kubernetes nel Commvault Command Center™, ovvero la piattaforma unica che soddisfa tutte le esigenze relative alla protezione, alla gestione e al ciclo di vita dei dati.

Commvault definisce un’applicazione Kubernetes come qualsiasi entità che sia un pod o un insieme di pod, ovvero: Deployment, ReplicaSet, StatefulSet ecc., nonché i relativi componenti associati, come desumibile dai file YAML delle applicazioni.

Per spiegare meglio il concetto, quando analizziamo un’applicazione come un Deployment, esaminiamo le sue specifiche di configurazione e individuiamo eventuali PVC (Persistent Volume Claims), Secret, ConfigMap e altre entità associate. Tutti questi elementi insieme costituiscono un’applicazione.

A user can browse an onboarded cluster for applications, select and group them together into an “Application Group” based on backup SLAs (Service Level Agreements), retention needs or any other criteria.

Gli utenti possono aggiungere applicazioni ai gruppi di applicazioni in diversi modi:

  1. Sfoglia e seleziona tutte le applicazioni presenti in uno o più spazi dei nomi.
  2. Seleziona applicazioni specifiche.
  3. Utilizza regole di individuazione dinamica: ad esempio, seleziona le applicazioni che corrispondono a un determinato selettore di etichetta o nome, ecc.

Il rilevamento dinamico è particolarmente utile nei casi in cui un amministratore dei backup possa chiedere ai team DevOps di impostare selettori di etichette sulle proprie applicazioni, ottenendo così la garanzia di specifici SLA (Service Level Agreement) in materia di protezione.

I processi di backup vengono eseguiti a livello di gruppo di applicazioni e utilizzano le regole relative ai contenuti per individuare, in fase di esecuzione, le applicazioni esistenti e quelle appena create, insieme alle relative risorse presenti nel cluster, ed eseguire i backup. Il backup dei PVC viene effettuato tramite CSI, se disponibile; in alternativa, se CSI non è disponibile, Commvault può collegarsi direttamente ai PVC utilizzando la semantica ReadMany.

Uno schema che illustra come avviene il tutto.

Con Commvault, il ripristino di un’applicazione o dei relativi dati può essere effettuato a diversi livelli di granularità:

  • Ripristino a livello di applicazione: è possibile ripristinare un’intera applicazione, insieme alle risorse e ai dati ad essa associati, in un’unica operazione.
  • Application files: An application’s data (or portions thereof) residing on PVCs can be restored piecemeal without having to restore the entire application.
  • File di configurazione delle applicazioni: i file di configurazione che costituiscono un’applicazione possono essere ripristinati come file, in modo che l’utente possa modificarli prima di applicarli al cluster.

Miglioramenti

È giunto il momento di parlare delle nuove ed entusiasmanti funzionalità, che garantiscono una protezione completa di Kubernetes e sono incluse nellaversione 2022E della piattaforma.

1. Protezione completa del cluster

Con questa funzionalità abbiamo aggiunto un pulsante di facile utilizzo per l’amministratore del backup: “Esegui il backup di tutto ciò che si trova sul cluster, per favore”. Grazie mille!

Everything in the cluster including cluster-scoped resources is picked up when configured in this manner.

Inoltre, vengono inclusi automaticamente anche gli spazi dei nomi individuati per la prima volta al momento del backup.

Gli amministratori dei backup non devono più selezionare singoli spazi dei nomi o applicazioni all’interno di uno spazio dei nomi affinché siano protetti integralmente.

2. Protezione a livello di namespace

Oltre a un intero cluster, gli utenti possono ora scegliere di eseguire il backup di un intero namespace, ovvero delle applicazioni (e delle relative risorse) e di tutte le risorse non referenziate all’interno del namespace (che chiamiamo “orfane”).

Inoltre, gli utenti possono ora ripristinare gli spazi dei nomi nella loro interezza, pur mantenendo le varie opzioni di ripristino granulare illustrate in precedenza.

3. Protezione di etcd.

etcd è un database distribuito e replicato che Kubernetes utilizza per memorizzare la configurazione del cluster. L’immagine qui sotto illustra l’utilizzo di etcd in un tipico cluster Kubernetes.

Ogni nodo del piano di controllo dispone di una replica/copia di etcd.

Losing/corrupting these copies can wreak havoc on a Kubernetes administrator’s day (or week).

Poiché etcd è replicato tra i nodi master di un cluster Kubernetes, le soluzioni tradizionali cercano di proteggere etcd proteggendo i nodi master stessi.Ciò avviene spesso implementando soluzioni su quei nodi del cluster per proteggere etcd a livello locale.This is unwieldy and cumbersome at best because it separates protection for the applications running on the cluster and the protection for the cluster state into two very disparate mechanisms.Protecting application state and protecting cluster state go hand in hand and separating the two can lead to inconsistencies esp.when recovering from a disaster.

Commvault integra ora perfettamente la protezione di etcd, insieme alla protezione delle applicazioni e dell’intero cluster, nel Command Center. È sufficiente che l’utente attivi un’opzione sul cluster per proteggere etcd e selezioni uno SLA. Tutto qui! Davvero! (Vedi l’immagine qui sotto)

Grazie a questi miglioramenti abbiamo sviluppato una soluzione completa e olistica per le vostre esigenze di protezione dei dati su Kubernetes e l’abbiamo integrata nel nostro Commvault Command Center, consentendovi di semplificare la gestione dell’intero patrimonio di dati da un’unica interfaccia. Non c’è da stupirsi che Commvault continui adistinguersi in questo settore.

Why: Extend Microsoft native capabilities with dedicated protection for fully managed, globally distributed, multi-modal Azure databases

What’s Different:  

  • Protezione con un’unica soluzione per i database Azure critici, tra cui SQL Server, SQL Managed Instance, Cosmos DB, MariaDB, MySQL e PostgreSQL
  • Protezione appositamente progettata per lo sviluppo nel cloud e le iniziative di modernizzazione delle applicazioni
  • Architettura “air-gapped” per proteggere i dati da cancellazione, danneggiamento o attacchi
  • Ritenzione a lungo termine estesa con rapida recuperabilità

And if all that wasn’t enough, we’ll be continuing the conversation with Microsoft in just a few short weeks at Commvault Connections, a true cloud data management experience, where Microsoft will lead a discussion on the topic, “Protect Your Critical IT Assets with Azure.” During this session, event attendees will learn more about the joint hybrid cloud solutions from Commvault and Microsoft and how they can be used to create a business continuity and disaster recovery plan that protects critical VMs, databases, PaaS and SaaS services (like M365), and more.

At Microsoft Ignite, Nutanix announced support for Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) running on Microsoft Azure. This will help Nutanix customers accelerate cloud adoption through unified management and seamless mobility for applications, data, and licenses across on-prem and Azure environments.1 This platform will allow Nutanix customers to move Nutanix workloads to – and from – on-prem into an Azure-based NC2 cluster, as an extension of their existing Nutanix ecosystem.

Commvault’s industry-leading platform provides seamless data protection and management for NC2 on Azure. Customers looking to extend their existing protection platform into the cloud can grow into a hybrid cloud model or even build a net new, cloud-based data protection platform to protect greenfield NC2 on Azure environments. Customers can seamlessly leverage Azure VM resources to build their data management platform and can easily consume Azure storage options for use for retention copies of their data without requiring additional resources running on the NC2 on Azure.

Facile da configurare e utilizzare

Una volta implementato NC2 su Azure, i clienti possono creare una sottorete sulla VNet di gestione di Prism Central creata all’interno di Azure, consentendo la comunicazione diretta tra le risorse di protezione dei dati di Azure e NC2 su Azure. Una volta configurata questa sottorete, i clienti possono implementare le risorse Commvault all’interno della stessa. Queste possono includere CommServe, MediaAgent, i nodi di accesso e altro ancora, che avranno tutti accesso diretto all’ambiente NC2 su Azure. Commvault offre anche una soluzione su Azure Marketplace che distribuisce tutte le risorse necessarie per il cliente con un semplice clic.

Una volta configurata la piattaforma Commvault, l’installazione dell’hypervisor Nutanix AHV richiede solo pochi secondi e la protezione dei dati può iniziare immediatamente. Le operazioni di protezione dei dati possono avvalersi del metodo di trasporto Direct NFS per Nutanix AHV, riducendo i requisiti di risorse sulla piattaforma NC2 su Azure.

Semplicità nella protezione e nel Recovery dei dati

Commvault consente inoltre ai clienti di spostare in modo rapido e semplice i carichi di lavoro tra gli ambienti on-premise e NC2 su Azure, facilitando al contempo il trasferimento dei carichi di lavoro – tramite una semplice operazione di Recovery – su piattaforme cloud-native come Azure VM.

Breve sintesi

Nutanix Cloud Clusters su Azure consente ai clienti di accelerare il proprio percorso verso il cloud ibrido. E Commvault è pronta a proteggere i loro dati e carichi di lavoro ovunque si trovino: on-premise, nel cloud e in ambienti ibridi. Oltre a proteggere i dati su Nutanix Cloud Clusters su Azure, Commvault è leader del settore nella protezione delle macchine virtuali Azure, di Azure Storage e praticamente di ogni altro carico di lavoro all’interno di un ambiente aziendale.

Commvault offre prestazioni leader nel settore in termini di scalabilità della protezione dei dati, trasformazione dei dati, gestione dei dati e deduplicazione.

Continuing our very full dance card for October, this week the Commvault team is in Las Vegas at Oracle CloudWorld and while we’re thrilled to be a gold sponsor of the show, Commvault and Oracle are so much more than just event supporters – we’re also multi-could partners! In fact, we ampliatola nostra partnership strategica con Oracle per includere l’intero portafoglio di offerte Metallic Data Management as a Service (DMaaS) suOracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). 

È un’equazione semplice:OCI + Metallic DMaaS= gestione dei dati aziendali, protezione dalle minacce e Recovery di facile utilizzo. Ma cosa significa esattamente? I clienti Oracle possono ora proteggere i carichi di lavoro critici nel cloud o in locale, mantenendo la flessibilità tra lo storage gestito dall’IT e la protezione dei dati fornita tramite SaaS per lo storage cloud gestito. La semplicità sta nell’interfaccia. Tutte le risorse di dati protette e messe in sicurezza in ambienti ibridi e multi-cloud vengono gestite tramite un’unica console basata sul web.

But that’s just the beginning. Commvault and Oracle are already well down the path on our newly minted, multi-cloud, SaaS-delivered DMaaS journey. Just this week, Commvault rolled out new support and features for the Metallic DMaaS portfolio designed specifically to expand support for OCI.

Specifically, Metallic now protects Oracle Database Cloud Service (DBCS) and Oracle Exadata Database Service on OCI, as well as OCI Object Storage.  These workloads join our existing support for Oracle, Oracle RAC, Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE) and OCI VMs. Metallic provides support for both Metallic Recovery Reserve for OCI storage and BYO OCI Storage for air-gapped protection. 

Come ha sottolineato il mio collega Jeff nel suoresoconto during last week’s events, the conversation doesn’t end at CloudWorld. Oracle is bringing its expertise to bear alongside our best and brightest at the upcoming Commvault Connections 22 event. Oracle’s Joe Corvaia, GVP, NACT ISV, MGS and MSP Sales, will join Commvault’s Chief Partner Officer Alan Atkinson, to discuss best practices for protecting against ransomware in a multi-cloud world. It’s just a few weeks away and I can tell you it’s going to be a world-class cloud experience. Register for Connections today and reserve your seat now for this special partner session!

As we continue our Commvault Cares Month celebration, we are raising awareness on causes close to our hearts.

This week I had the honor of hosting a Courageous Conversation regarding domestic violence awareness. Our Courageous Conversation platform is our way to have the tough conversation about things that matter – and this one sure did not fail!

During our Courageous Conversation, I was joined by special guests Anna Diaz-White, Caitlin Tamayo, and Randi Zamkotowicz from 180 Turning Lives Around, un’organizzazione no profit locale con sede nel New Jersey che aiuta le vittime e le famiglie colpite da violenza domestica e abusi sessuali a trovare il coraggio e la forza necessari per dare una svolta alla propria vita. Abbiamo avuto con noi anche Bill Appleton, del nostro Programma di Assistenza ai Dipendenti (EAP), che ci ha illustrato le risorse e il supporto a disposizione di noi di Vault. Disponibile 24 ore su 24, 7 giorni su 7, 365 giorni all’anno, il nostro EAP mette in contatto i partecipanti con consulenti specializzati in una varietà di aree tematiche, molte delle quali riguardano la salute mentale.

We broadcasted our Courageous Conversation on domestic violence live from our headquarters so all our Vaulters could join the discussion. During the event, we focused on three ways to drive awareness of domestic violence – how to Recognize, Respond, and Refer – whether it’s for ourselves, our co-workers, friends, or family:

  1. Recognize signs of domestic violence and better understand how common it is. The reality is that anyone can be a victim of domestic violence, regardless of race, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or economic status. If you are questioning how you’re treated by your partner, I encourage you to consultare questa lista from the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. And when it comes to recognizing signs of domestic violence abuse with a colleague, friend, or family member, it’s important to notice changes in behavior and dress and check in if you think someone may be in an unsafe situation.  
  2. Respond by creating a safety plan to help lower the risk of being hurt by a partner. This is a set of actions to be referenced when experiencing abuse, preparing to leave, or after a victim leaves. Having a safety plan is especially important during moments of crisis when stress makes it very hard to think clearly. An example of one of these actions is to keep a “to-go bag” ready and waiting. This way, in case of an emergency situation, someone who is being abused is able to leave immediately with all the essentials.
  3. Refer to local and/or company resources for safety planning and support. Like many local organizations across the U.S. and throughout the world, 180 Turning Lives Around has hotlines, a safe house, and counselors available to help domestic violence victims. At Commvault, our HR team and our EAP is here to help all our Vaulters through any life challenges.

E sebbene ottobre sia il mese della sensibilizzazione sulla violenza domestica negli Stati Uniti, continuiamo a parlare di questo tema di fondamentale importanza durante tutto l’anno, celebrando le giornate dedicate alla sensibilizzazione sulla violenza domestica in tutto il mondo.

We believe you need to have the conversation, to change the conversation. And any conversation, whether it’s big or small, can make a difference. I’m so proud of our Vaulter community for continuing to have open discussions as we support our culture of respect, care, and belonging.
