Commvault has launched the Commvault Cloud Unified Data Vault, a cloud-native service that extends the company's air-gapped, immutable data protection to information stored using the S3 protocol. The solution provides a secure, Commvault-managed S3-compatible endpoint, allowing developers to apply policy-driven encryption, deduplication, and retention controls to application and AI data without installing agents.
Commvault launches Unified Data Vault to protect S3-based application and AI data.
It provides a secure, Commvault-managed S3-compatible endpoint for direct data writes.
Protection includes automatic immutability, encryption, deduplication, and policy governance.
The solution is agentless, requiring no installation on source applications.
It centralizes protection for fragmented S3 backups from databases and SaaS applications.
Available via Early Access now, with General Availability targeted for spring 2026.
As organizations increasingly use S3 buckets to store backups from databases, SaaS applications, and AI workloads, these data sets often lack consistent protection, creating compliance and recovery risks. Unified Data Vault addresses this by allowing applications to write data directly to a Commvault-managed endpoint, where it automatically inherits enterprise-grade security and resilience features like immutability and encryption, centralizing protection under a unified policy framework.
A key benefit is the agentless architecture, which eliminates the need for custom scripts or software installations on source systems. Developers and data teams can use native S3 workflows and APIs to send data directly to the Commvault-managed endpoint, seamlessly integrating protection into existing DevOps processes without adding complexity or creating new data silos.
The service enables centralized policy governance, allowing IT and security teams to apply consistent protection and compliance rules across clouds, regions, and diverse workloads. It also presents a new opportunity for Commvault's partner ecosystem, enabling managed service providers and resellers to extend cyber resiliency services to S3-native workloads and deliver differentiated value to their customers.
This launch represents a strategic move to bridge the gap between modern, developer-driven data storage practices and the rigorous resilience requirements of enterprise IT, ensuring that critical data is protected from creation without hindering innovation.
