CommVault® GalaxyTM Backup & Recovery and ExaGrid

Cost effective, easy to manage

CommVault Galaxy Backup and Recovery software contains extensive capabilities to simplify the management of backup media resources. Galaxy software writes backup data to a broad collection of storage devices, including disk as a media target. This ability to write to magnetic disk as a functional equal of all other media types while exploiting the random access nature of the disk media sets Galaxy software apart. With over a decade of experience in writing backups to random access media, Galaxy backup is uniquely poised to fully leverage the advent of a low cost disk based backup device. Another advantage of Galaxy software is the ability to extend all traditional tape based storage management features and functions to disk.

Galaxy software supports all major vendor devices (tape, optical and disk based storage) as targets for backup. Galaxy software handles the drive and library allocation and management. Furthermore, with the use of Storage Policies, Galaxy software isolates the administrator from having to deal with these storage devices at any time other than during initial configuration. Galaxy software lets administrators easily leverage their storage devices. This reduces management time and effort normally spent on monitoring and managing backups and backup media types.
