Commvault's powerful backup solutions integrated into the Arrow marketplace will help customers accelerate their journey to the cloud by ensuring more effective data protection solutions to prevent data loss and downtime
Arrow Electronics, a global technology provider, is integrating Commvault's Metallic backup and recovery solutions as a data management-as-a-service (DMaaS) into ArrowSphere, Arrow's leading cloud marketplace management platform, to ensure availability to customers around the world.
Commvault, a globally recognized leader in intelligent data services across on-premises, cloud and SaaS environments, has developed Metallic, a suite of flexible, enterprise-grade solutions that deliver the best data protection on the market today, but with the simplicity of the SaaS model. Metallic offers scalable, accessible backup and recovery of data stored in on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments, with protection for a wide range of workloads. This includes Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Dynamics 365, Salesforce, VM, container, database, object, and file data, as well as laptops and desktops. Additionally, the Metallic solution helps customers ensure compliance with privacy regulations, including GDPR.
Last year, Commvault signed an agreement with Microsoft that led to the integration of the go-to-market strategies, combined with the design and promotion strategies of Metallic DMaaS with Azure, creating a powerful protection platform but with the simplicity that characterizes SaaS management. Metallic offers longer data retention and the security expected from Microsoft 365 – with fast recovery from accidental deletion, data corruption and cyber attacks – as well as protection across all three Microsoft cloud environments – Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365 and Azure.
