This technical review presents the findings from a validation conducted by TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group on the integration of ExaGrid and Commvault backup solutions. The report outlines the challenges faced by organizations in managing growing data volumes, where a significant percentage of respondents reported having over 500 TB of backup data. The review details how the combined solution of ExaGrid and Commvault can achieve a reduction in storage footprint by up to 14:1 through enhanced deduplication. It describes the operational simplicity of adding ExaGrid to an existing Commvault environment, emphasizing the ease of deployment and management for IT administrators. The report further explains the technical aspects of the deduplication process, including the roles of the ExaGrid Landing Zone and Repository Tier, and highlights the adaptive deduplication feature that optimizes resource usage during backup operations. Overall, the findings indicate that this integration not only reduces storage costs but also enhances data protection capabilities.
