Nutanix Objects and Commvault
Always-on Data Access

Enterprises around the world are struggling with exponential data growth. Ever deepening data oceans lead to unprecedented management challenges--such as proliferating data silos, increased risk, and missed backup SLAs--as well as unprecedented opportunities for insights on customer behaviors and preferences, both real-time and historical.

STORAGE FOR THE DIGITAL DISRUPTION ERA

For many years, tape has been the medium of choice for backup due to its low cost, long retention, and portability. But tape also has significant drawbacks, including slow access time (hours or days long delays when retrieving vital data), limited scalability, and risk of data loss due to degradation. While there are still some use cases for tape, such as air gap and off-site cloud storage, most use cases now require the real-time recovery, copy data re-use, and reduced media management costs that cloud and object storage offer. File storage works well for home directories and departmental shares, but it is often not the right choice for use cases such as backup and archive where petabytes of data need to be stored long term, often in an immutable fashion, and infrequently accessed.
