Commvault Extends Support to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Workloads for Enhanced, Cloud-Native Cyber Resilience
Commvault (CVLT) has announced an extension of its Kubernetes protection to support virtual machines running on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization. This enhancement enables unified cyber resilience for both virtual machines and containers through the Commvault Cloud platform. The solution offers air-gapped and immutable backups, flexible recovery options, and simplified management of hybrid workloads through a single platform.
Key features include robust cyber resilience against ransomware, in-place and out-of-place VM restoration capabilities, and unified protection for hybrid workloads. The service will be available for early adopters in early summer, with general availability targeted for early fall 2025. This development comes as Gartner predicts 90% of G2000 companies will use container management tools by 2027, with the Containers as a Service market expected to reach $44B by 2034.
Commvault (CVLT) ha annunciato l'estensione della protezione Kubernetes per supportare le macchine virtuali che girano su Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization. Questo miglioramento consente una resilienza informatica unificata sia per le macchine virtuali che per i container attraverso la piattaforma Commvault Cloud. La soluzione offre backup air-gapped e immutabili, opzioni di ripristino flessibili e una gestione semplificata dei carichi di lavoro ibridi tramite un'unica piattaforma.
Le caratteristiche principali includono una solida resilienza contro i ransomware, capacit脿 di ripristino VM sia in loco che esterne, e protezione unificata per i carichi di lavoro ibridi. Il servizio sar脿 disponibile per i primi adottanti all'inizio dell'estate, con disponibilit脿 generale prevista per l'inizio dell'autunno 2025. Questo sviluppo arriva mentre Gartner prevede che il 90% delle aziende G2000 utilizzer脿 strumenti di gestione container entro il 2027, con il mercato Containers as a Service che dovrebbe raggiungere i 44 miliardi di dollari entro il 2034.

Insights
Commvault extends protection to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, strengthening its market position in unified cyber resilience solutions for hybrid cloud environments.
Commvault's extension of Kubernetes protection to include virtual machines running on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization represents a strategic product enhancement that aligns with major enterprise cloud migration trends. With Gartner predicting
This capability addresses a critical pain point in hybrid cloud environments: the operational complexity and security vulnerabilities created by using separate tools for protecting containers and traditional VMs. By enabling unified management through the Commvault Cloud platform, the company reduces operational silos while providing air-gapped and immutable backups鈥攅ssential features in today's ransomware-threatened landscape.
The business impact extends beyond technical capabilities. By eliminating the need for separate backup infrastructure, Commvault offers customers potential cost savings through reduced total cost of ownership. The partnership with Red Hat, the industry leader in enterprise Kubernetes, strengthens Commvault's competitive positioning against rivals like Veeam, Rubrik, and Cohesity in the rapidly evolving cyber resilience market.
For existing Commvault customers with hybrid workloads, this integration simplifies their protection strategy while potentially increasing stickiness to the platform. For prospective customers evaluating data protection solutions for containerized environments, this expanded capability may serve as a competitive differentiator, particularly for organizations in early stages of container adoption that still maintain significant VM workloads.
Delivers unified cyber resilience for virtual machines and containers on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization
Containerized workload adoption is rapidly growing: Gartner predicts
Commvault addresses this by enabling customers to automatically discover, protect, and recover VMs running on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization alongside their containerized workloads, all through the . These capabilities can be particularly valuable for DevOps, SRE, IT/backup admins, and technology leaders (CIOs, CISOs, CTOs) that are managing cloud-native estates.
For customers, this means:
- Robust Cyber Resilience: Commvault offers air-gapped and immutable backups with advanced recovery for VMs on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, enabling improved business continuity in the face of ransomware and other threats.
- Faster and More Flexible Recovery: Customers can restore VMs both in-place and out-of-place, including VM configurations, accelerating deployment and minimizing downtime.
- Unified Protection for Hybrid Workloads: Customers can simplify operations by managing both traditional and cloud-native workloads through a single platform, reducing tool sprawl and operational silos.
- Cost Savings and Operational Efficiency: Customers can eliminate the need for separate backup infrastructure or tools for VMs, lowering TCO and increasing administrative efficiency.
