Service providers today tasked with delivering highly reliable data management services like backup, disaster recovery and archive combined with fast access to data when customers need it. Trying to accomplish this with multiple point products that are not designed to work together or scale across thousands of customers makes this task near impossible. CommVault ® Simpana® software is different. A highly scalable, unified platform built to address a wide variety of data and information management needs, Simpana® software delivers backup & recovery, archiving, replication, reporting and search capabilities across a wide variety of physical or virtual platforms, applications and hardware. Leveraging Simpana ® software to build your cloud services portfolio ensures lower operating costs, increased up-time for your customers and future investment protection.

Archive to the Cloud As data volumes continue to increase, many companies find themselves bumping up against the capacity, cooling or power limitations of their existing data centers. Meanwhile, compliance regulations or legal obligations require many businesses to keep ever-growing amounts of data long-term. This three-way balancing act between capacity, compliance and cost is ideal for cloudbased storage services that provide lower cost, online elastic storage. Stale data can be found throughout the enterprise – from the central data center to the remote offices worldwide. By some estimates, almost 50 percent of unstructured data is stale, meaning it hasn’t been accessed in over a year.

6. Lower Operational Costs: Simpana software’s singular platform shares heterogeneous storage infrastructure across backup, archive and replication managed from a single console.

With Simpana Archive, you can:  Free up expensive primary storage space and shrink backup windows by archiving data to the cloud.  Securely transmit and store archived data in the cloud using FIPS certified encryption.  Reduce management costs with automated policies that move infrequently accessed data to the cloud.  Simpana Archive supports file system, messaging applications, SharePoint and NAS data to optimize data stores for maximum application performance.  The end result is a significant reduction in TCO on purchasing and managing storage.  Maintain data in a searchable archive for long-term compliance purposes.  Become a trusted advisor and help clients implement data lifecycle management.

Reducing Operating Costs Uniquely designed, Simpana® software’s modular architecture shares a common code base allowing multi-tenant architectures to efficiently share hardware infrastructure across product offerings to significantly reduce operating and administrative costs. Administrative teams can also leverage training, operational experience and administrative knowledge across product offerings. In addition, advanced built-in features like data compression and source-side deduplication help improve efficiency by eliminating redundant copies of data and ensuring optimal network utilization. In some cases, source side deduplication has allowed providers to delay costly network upgrades for 12 – 24 months, helping extend the life of existing hardware investments. Highly automated features like automated software updates, policy-based management and automated path failover reduce the care and feeding needed to keep your operation running. All of this means shorter time to market, fewer people to oversee, less data center infrastructure for you to manage, and overall reduced costs compared to the competition.
