Overview
Oracle Cloud provides a recognized public cloud environment ideal for running flexible, scalable, and resilient workloads. At Commvault, we believe that the simplicity, security, and auditability you’ve come to expect from your on-premises data protection solution should also work in Oracle Cloud. As part of the Commvault Complete™ Backup & Recovery product, our solution offers support for OCI-C Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and storage offerings – along with comprehensive data protection of all your other on-premises virtualization platforms, physical servers, and enterprise applications – all from a single, consolidated user-friendly dashboard.
Data protection challenges in the public cloud
Protecting workloads via cloud-native tools can be complex and limited. To protect cloud workloads and data, organizations frequently resort to creating their own scripts to orchestrate the different snapshot and replication methods available with the various cloud services. These scripts can be difficult to maintain, audit, and scale as your organization takes advantage of the flexibility and elasticity of the public cloud. And if your organization has regulatory or business process requirements to create secondary copies of backups in other cloud providers or in your on-premise data center, this complexity increases dramatically.
Comprehensive data management for Oracle Cloud
Backup and recovery with reduced management overhead
- Agentless auto-discovery and protection of Oracle Cloud Compute VM data via the Commvault Virtual Server Agent (VSA) proxy
- Application-consistent protection helps ensure that your applications are adequately protected and fully recoverable to consistent points in time
- Application replication to Oracle Cloud and back on-premises
- Quick recovery of individual files from within an OCI-C guest-level backup without needing to recover the entire VM
Global management and proactive monitoring
- Protect and manage all your OCI-C VMs across multiple OCI-C accounts and regions from a single view
- Provide protection monitoring and recovery reporting of multiple OCI & OCI-C accounts and regions in a consolidated view
- Recover data to any Oracle Cloud region, to an on-premises data center, or to other cloud providers
Oracle cloud storage integration
- Supports Oracle Cloud Storage – Multi-Regional, Regional, Nearline, and Coldline storage
- Directly write and read data to all tiers of storage without the need for costly gateways or instantiating infrastructure
- Reduce Oracle Cloud storage costs by leveraging Commvault compression and deduplication when storing data in Oracle Cloud and tiering across multiple storage tiers
- Help ensure data security by encrypting data in-flight and at-rest within Oracle Cloud storage
- Increase public cloud resiliency by replicating a copy of data from other clouds to Oracle Cloud storage
With a unified approach to protecting and managing your entire Oracle environment, you can migrate workloads to the cloud faster and backup your databases more efficiently
Simplified deployment and administration
- Software-based solution offers flexible deployments options – on-premises, in cloud, and across hybrid environments
- Unified management interface reduces learning curve and deployment complexity
- Single licensing model can cover all VMs, applications and file systems in the enterprise
Flexible and easy to use
As a software-based solution, Commvault provides extreme flexibility in deployment options. Commvault also offers an integrated solution with its HyperScale™ technology that combines all aspects of the data protection platform in a scale-out system. Commvault can also be deployed as a completely virtual or cloud-based protection platform, depending on your business needs. A single interface consolidates all configuration, management, and reporting tools into an easy-to-use web interface, greatly reducing your administrative burden.
