Data Protection A Powerful Partnership for the Future of Data Resilience Commvault now integrates with HPE’s Active Peer Persistence technology. By Paul Dadamo | January 13, 2025 The partnership between Commvault and HPE is redefining the world of data protection and management. HPE’s high-performance infrastructure powers an entire ecosystem of scalable, sustainable solutions, while Commvault orchestrates and protects data across that ecosystem. Together, we are empowering data-driven enterprises to securely manage, protect, and recover their data across today’s complex hybrid cloud environments. HPE’s infrastructure solutions are purpose-built to support the most demanding workloads, delivering unmatched performance and scalability across hybrid, multi-cloud, and on-premises environments. At HPE Discover Las Vegas 2024, the company reaffirmed its commitment to leading the enterprise adoption of AI, further positioning HPE as a cornerstone for modern IT. Partnering with HPE allows Commvault to harness this infrastructure, providing our customers with cyber-resilient solutions that enhance the reliability and efficiency of data protection. Enhanced Resilience with Active Peer Persistence Integration Commvault’s deep integration with HPE storage platforms includes advanced snapshot management capabilities that streamline the protection of large databases, medical imagery, and other data-intensive workloads. Building on this, our recent milestone is Commvault’s new integration with HPE’s Active Peer Persistence technology. Currently available in HPE Alletra 9000 and HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000, HPE’s Active Peer Persistence enables synchronous replication across two geographically separated storage arrays, automatically failing over from one site to another during an outage without any disruption. This continuous availability is crucial for mission-critical applications that require minimal downtime. With our new integration, Commvault detects when two HPE storage arrays are in an Active Peer Persistence configuration and snaps both arrays simultaneously, backing up each locally. Commvault’s robust data management tools then allow businesses to send extra copies of data to tape (HPE StoreEver), cloud, or other storage options, supporting compliance and adding another layer of data security. Benefits of the Integration for Data-Driven Businesses This integration brings significant benefits to customers seeking to maximize resilience, reduce downtime, and streamline backup and recovery processes across distributed environments. Continuous availability: Mission-critical applications benefit from uninterrupted access to data, even in the event of planned or unplanned outages. Network efficiency: By allowing data recovery directly from either primary or secondary arrays, the integration reduces the requirement for additional copies, reducing the overall load on network resources. Enhanced compliance: Commvault’s flexible data management enables additional copies of data to meet various regulatory and compliance needs. The partnership between Commvault and HPE exemplifies our shared commitment to delivering modern, scalable, and sustainable data protection solutions. “Partnering with HPE to support Active Peer Persistence underscores our dedication to delivering solutions that drive business continuity and operational efficiency,” said Jeff Carlat, Director – WW Alliances at Commvault. “Together, we are equipping our customers with the tools they need to navigate complex data environments with confidence.” Learn more at hpe.com/storage.
