CommVault has released an integrated cloud storage connector for its Simpana software, which enables customers to move on-premises backup and archive data into and out of private and public cloud storage without scripting or the addition of cloud gateway appliances.

The company provides enterprises with a singular platform and product architecture to simplify the movement, protection, archiving and eDiscovery of all types of data stored in the cloud including Oracle and SAP databases, Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint systems as well as virtualised data.

The Simpana software allows customers to deploy embedded data deduplication and encryption modules to reduce data management costs. It allows them to add Simpana Search to index data prior to sending it to cloud storage to help meet compliance and eDiscovery needs, the company said.

The new connector offers integration with cloud storage providers including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft and Nirvanix, extending the unified data and information management capabilities of the Simpana software platform to the cloud. The company also plans integration with EMC and Iron Mountain.
