Commvault stock surges on Microsoft Azure partnership By Investing.com

Investing.com -- Commvault Systems Inc (NASDAQ:CVLT) shares rose 4.6% Wednesday after the company announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft to deliver cyber resilience tools natively on Microsoft Azure. Through the partnership, Microsoft will offer Commvault's AI and cyber resilience technologies as a native ISV service on Microsoft Azure. Azure customers will be able to discover, provision, and integrate Commvault's resilience capabilities directly from the Azure cloud platform. The collaboration will provide a unified experience across procurement, onboarding, and operations, eliminating the need for separate infrastructure, manual integrations, or external tooling for Commvault customers. The capabilities can be used to help enterprises recover and restore data, applications, and identities if systems are compromised by attacks, outages, or human error. "For over 25 years, we've partnered with Microsoft and now we're taking that collaboration to the next level," said Sanjay Mirchandani, President and CEO of Commvault. "Many of our customers rely on Microsoft Azure to scale their business in the cloud, use AI, optimize operations, and bring ideas to life. With this joint commitment, we can also make best-in-class resilience plug-and-play for Microsoft customers." Customers will be able to purchase Commvault Cloud through the Microsoft Marketplace and apply usage toward their Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC), simplifying procurement and aligning resilience investments with broader cloud spend. Commvault and Microsoft will collaborate on joint go-to-market initiatives, including co-selling, solution development, and integrated sales motions designed to accelerate cloud journeys and customer adoption of cyber resilience on Azure.

Commvault Signs Multi-Year Microsoft Deal to Embed Recovery Tools in Azure

Commvault Systems has signed a multi-year partnership with Microsoft that will make its artificial intelligence-driven cyber-resilience platform a native service inside Microsoft Azure. As part of the deal, Microsoft will embed Commvault's data protection and recovery technologies directly into the Azure cloud platform, allowing customers to deploy and manage the tools without separate infrastructure or manual integration. Azure is Microsoft's cloud computing platform which lets organizations run applications, store data and use AI tools on Microsoft-managed infrastructure instead of on their own servers. The two companies will work together to promote and sell the service, develop new features, and make it easier for customers to use Commvault's security and recovery tools on Azure.
