Tool sprawl slows recovery Separate tools for VMs, databases, files, and cloud workloads create gaps, handoffs, and inconsistent recovery processes. Confidence stops at backups A successful backup does not confirm that related workloads and data can be recovered consistently and in the right sequence. Downtime stops the business When critical workloads and data go offline, the applications and business services that depend on them can stop too. --- ## What CoreRecover protects and recovers Consistent protection and recovery for the workloads and data your business runs on, in your data center, your virtual environments, and the cloud systems that extend them. ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Data-Aging.svg) ### Workloads and data ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Cloud-Environment.svg) ### Cloud-hosted VMs ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Active-Resilience.svg) ### Virtual machines ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Database.svg) ### Containers ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Product_solutions_logo-4@6x.webp) ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/App-Designer.svg) ### Applications ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Hybrid-File-Stores.svg) ### File systems ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Case-Manager.svg) ### Object Storage ![](https://www.commvault.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Devops.svg) ### Endpoints --- ## How CoreRecover helps deliver consistent, validated recovery Each capability helps reduce tool sprawl, strengthen data security, and helps teams recover core workloads and data with confidence.

CoreRecover is Commvault’s solution for recovering core infrastructure and data across on-premises, virtualized, and operations-focused cloud infrastructure. It combines unified backup and recovery with AI-enabled discovery under one policy, helping teams confirm the whole estate can recover. Why does recovery across workloads matter? Business services depend on many workloads working together. Separate backup tools can leave gaps in how they recover. CoreRecover helps teams protect them under consistent policies and a single, unified control plane, reduce blind spots, and validate that the business can recover. What workloads and data does CoreRecover protect? CoreRecover protects virtual machines, containers, databases, enterprise applications, file systems, object storage, and endpoints, plus cloud-hosted VMs that operate as extensions of the data center, across on-premises, virtualized, and operations-focused cloud environments. How is CoreRecover different from CloudRecover? CloudRecover is for cloud-native environments at cloud scale. CoreRecover is for on-premises, virtualized, and operational cloud environments, such as lift-and-shift VMs and cloud-hosted databases that operate as extensions of the data center. How is CoreRecover different from separate backup tools? Teams often manage separate tools for each type of workload. CoreRecover brings protection and recovery under consistent policies and a single control plane, so teams spend less time managing separate tools, licenses, and recovery procedures. How does CoreRecover support cyber resilience? CoreRecover helps strengthen cyber resilience by applying shared recovery policies, reducing tool sprawl, and supporting consistent recovery operations across critical workloads and data. Paired with Commvault AirGap, Threat Scan, and Cleanroom, it can support isolated recovery testing and validation. Can CoreRecover reduce operational overhead? CoreRecover is designed to help reduce operational overhead by centralizing protection policies, showing protection and recovery status in one place, and reducing the need to manage separate backup tools for each type of workload. Who is CoreRecover built for? CoreRecover is built for CIOs and infrastructure, IT, data center, storage, and virtualization leaders who are responsible for recoverability across the environments the business runs on, with CISOs and CTOs often serving as aligned stakeholders. Can CoreRecover run on Commvault Storage Solutions? Commvault Storage Solutions, including Edge, Grid, and Flex are deployment options for CoreRecover, built on a hardened VaultOS foundation. You can deploy on validated appliances, reference architectures or on your own supported hardware. --- ## Related to CoreRecover ![](/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Multi-User-Authorization.svg) ## Use Cases [Backup & Recovery about Use Cases](/use-cases/backup-and-recovery%20)[Disaster Recovery about Use Cases](/use-cases/disaster-recovery)[VMware Protection about Use Cases](/supported-technologies/vmware%20) ![](/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Data-Aging.svg) ## Solutions [CyberRecover about Solutions](https://www.commvault.com/explore/cyber-recovery)[IDRecover about Solutions](https://www.commvault.com/explore/identity-resilience)[CloudRecover about Solutions](https://www.commvault.com/clumio/solutions%20) ![](/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Configuration.svg) ## Regulatory [DORA Addendum about Regulatory](https://www.commvault.com/legal/financial-sector-addendum-dora)[NIS2 Brief about Regulatory](https://www.commvault.com/resources/solution-brief/using-commvault-cloud-to-assist-in-nis2-compliance)[GDPR Support about Regulatory](https://documentation.commvault.com/v11/software/general_data_protection_regulation_gdpr_compliance_with_contentstore.html) ![](/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Archive.svg) ## Industry [Financial Services about Industry](https://www.commvault.com/use-cases/financial)[Healthcare about Industry](https://www.commvault.com/en-ca/use-cases/healthcare)[Education about Industry](https://www.commvault.com/who-we-serve/education) --- Request a demo ## Learn how you can modernize your core recovery See how unified recovery can help reduce tool sprawl and strengthen resilience across core infrastructure.
