Commvault has announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft to deliver its AI-powered cyber resilience technologies as a native Independent Software Vendor (ISV) service on Microsoft Azure. The collaboration is designed to help enterprises strengthen cyber resilience, support AI adoption, and simplify data protection as organizations accelerate cloud transformation.
Commvault has strengthened its long-standing partnership with Microsoft by introducing its AI-powered cyber resilience capabilities as a native ISV service on Microsoft Azure. The integration enables Azure customers to discover, provision, and manage Commvault's resilience solutions directly within the Azure environment, eliminating the need for separate infrastructure or complex third-party integrations.
The collaboration is intended to provide organizations with a more streamlined approach to protecting critical data, applications, and identities while improving recovery capabilities in the event of cyberattacks, system outages, or human error.
As organizations continue expanding cloud adoption and AI initiatives, cyber resilience has become a strategic priority. Through this partnership, enterprises can integrate Commvault's resilience capabilities into Azure-based AI workloads, helping maintain data security, operational continuity, and recoverability while supporting innovation.
"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, 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."
Girish Bablani, President of Azure Core at Microsoft, said, "Customers rely on Azure as a resilient foundation for their cloud and AI workloads. Supporting Commvault natively gives them more choice in how they protect and recover their data, with a more seamless experience inside Azure."
The native Azure integration allows customers to deploy and manage Commvault's resilience capabilities alongside existing Azure services through a consistent cloud experience. Organizations can also purchase Commvault Cloud through Microsoft Marketplace and apply eligible usage toward their Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC), simplifying procurement while aligning cyber resilience investments with broader cloud spending strategies.
In addition to the technology integration, Commvault and Microsoft will collaborate on joint go-to-market initiatives, including co-selling, solution development, and integrated sales efforts designed to accelerate customer adoption of cyber resilience solutions on Azure.
Commvault stated that the native ISV service on Azure is expected to enter public preview this summer, providing enterprises with expanded options for securing cloud environments, supporting AI-driven workloads, and improving business continuity through integrated cyber resilience.
