Where the Cloud Touches Down: Simplifying Data Center Infrastructure Management

Thursday, July 25, 2013
10:00 AM PT/1:00 PM ET

In most data centers, DCIM rests on a shaky foundation of manual record keeping and scattered documentation. OpManager replaces data center documentation with a single repository for data, QRCodes for asset tracking, accurate 3D mapping of asset locations, and a configuration management database (CMDB). In this webcast, sponsored by ManageEngine, you will see how a real-world datacenter mapping stored in racktables gets imported into OpManager, which then provides a 3D visualization of where assets actually are. You'll also see how the QR Code generator helps you make the link between real assets and the monitoring world, and how the layered CMDB provides a single point of view for all your configuration data.

March 21, 2013 10:55 AM
CommVault Simpana 10 extends customers' ability to use stored data for applications such as search, e-discovery and healthcare data management.

CommVault Simpana Adds Mobility, Backup Capabilities

February 02, 2012 11:00 AM
CommVault Systems has enhanced Version 9 of its Simpana data management software, which it first announced in October 2010. Major new features in the software include OnePass, which will back up server data, archive it and report on it simultaneously. The company said the process could take less than half the time of separate processes.

CommVault's Simpana 9: Making Information Governance Actionable

November 11, 2010 09:00 AM
IT organizations are becoming more and more aware of the need for information governance but if their concerns only result in collaborative planning efforts there is no mechanism to actually put the plans into execution. However, there are solutions designed to help overcome this hurdle. The information management side of CommVault's Simpana 9 turns the planning exercise into actions that can achieve measurable results in such areas as eDiscovery and compliance.

Commvault's Simpana 9 Eases Data Management

October 08, 2010 10:53 AM
CommVault Systems has announced version nine of its Simpana data management software. Simpana 9 has better integration between physical and virtual cloud storage systems, offering a single policy interface across a three-tier storage architecture for data that is in use as well as backed-up data and data that is archived to disk, tape or to the cloud. Additionally, data can be restored from any tier. Their improved, source-based deduplication, which the company claims eliminates 90 percent of redundant data, produces 50 percent faster backup and cuts storage-related costs by 50 percent. The software runs on a wide variety of storage arrays and supports the use of several cloud services.

CommVault Delivers A Cloud-Enabled Platform

February 05, 2010 01:00 PM
Everybody wants to go to heaven someday, but nobody seems to want to go now. Why so? Perhaps it's mere uncertainty. If we substitute the cloud for "heaven," the same seems to be true today. That is why it is so important for vendors to create products and services that can actually get clients to the cloud today while still keeping their feet on the ground. With that in mind, CommVault's ability to effectively extend its data management platform into the cloud provides a positive illustration that the cloud can provide real value today and not just someday. Such examples are important so that the cloud is not just dismissed as hype.

Is D2D2C The Next Big Thing In Backup?

February 02, 2010 09:30 AM
Today CommVault announced that their Simpana integrated backup and archiving software can now use public cloud providers in addition to local disk and tape as a data store. I hope that CommVault is, as they were with deduplication, leading a new wave of disk-to-disk-to-cloud (D2D2C)backup and archive solutions. While I firmly believe that there's a lot of life left in tape, especially for long retention archives with relatively low access rates, 25 years of consulting to organizations has taught me that tape drives, like backhoes and other heavy equipment, should be left to trained professionals. Small and even mid-size organizations rarely handle tape properly, leaving them exposed to data loss.
