Commvault

Commvault is a popular backup and data protection tool that companies use to keep their important files and systems safe. It automatically makes copies of your business data so that if something goes wrong like a ransomware attack, hardware failure, or accidental deletion, you can quickly restore everything without losing work.
Commvault uses DiskSpace S3-compatible object storage as a smart, affordable place to keep these backup copies. Instead of filling up expensive traditional storage systems, Commvault sends the backed-up data to S3 buckets where it can be stored safely and cheaply for long periods.
This approach gives companies flexible recovery options while keeping costs down, since DiskSpace S3 storage scales easily and only charges for what you actually use.
