Air-gapping involves the physical separation of backup data from the primary data source, storing it such that it is immutable (can’t be changed) and indelible (can’t be deleted). Multi-cloud means air-gapped copies are stored in at least two clouds. ![Check](/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/check-grass.svg) ### Commvault Supports air-gapped immutable storage across all the major hyperscalers – to provide flexibility, scalability, and cost reduction by avoiding egress fees. Commvault AirGap integrates with Commvault Cleanroom to help customers perform clean recoveries in a separate recovery environment free from malware. ![Cross](/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/x-red.svg) ### Others Other vendors claim to have air-gapped immutable storage, but none have multiple cloud destinations. This forces a user to choose to recover their work to that specific cloud or face slow recovery times and higher costs for moving data from one cloud to another.
