Logicalis Australia partners with Commvault for enhanced data protection

Logicalis Australia has announced a partnership with Commvault that will bring enhanced security-as-a-service capabilities to their data protection managed service. This strategic alliance presents businesses with a holistic, scalable approach for data protection that spans hybrid and multi-cloud environments, offering seamless management and assured recovery.

As a result of this collaboration, Logicalis Australia is now a Commvault Security-as-a-Service (SaaS) managed services provider (MSP). This enhances Logicalis's existing data protection service, with the advanced data protection technology from Commvault enabling the delivery of additional robust tools and support. Consequently, businesses are in a better position to protect and administer their data wherever it resides.

Customers will reap the benefits of this enhanced service by accessing a truly resilient capacity for hybrid and multi-cloud applications, with all short, short-anmid-ong-term data retention needs duly factored in. This robust service is cost-effective and can be customised according to each customer's specific needs and requirements. Key benefits of this data protection solution include comprehensive data protection regardless of location, assured data recovery, and uncompromised data security.

Leon Scott, the head of cloud, data, and AI at Logicalis Australia, shared an insight into the necessity of such advanced solutions in a world where data creation is growing exponentially and is dispersed across different applications and environments. Scott commented, "Businesses can find themselves going down a multi-product, multi-interface, and multi-skill requirement path for data protection and management. While technology is an important consideration, businesses also need the right people and processes to ensure their infrastructure can support their data protection needs now and in the future."

Scott emphasised the role of Logicalis expertise in providing businesses with efficient, flexible and cost-effective solutions that truly cater to their data protection requirements. This collaboration with Commvault is projected to further push this service boundary.

Jo Dean, area vice president of channel and alliances APAC, Commvault, also voiced his satisfaction with this partnership. He noted that the Logicalis Australia data protection managed service will help to simplify data management through an innovative solution that can adapt to the changing needs of businesses. He highlighted the importance of being cyber resilient in an ever-changing IT environment, saying, "We are pleased to be working with Logicalis Australia to expand their data protection portfolio so their customers can concentrate on transformational and business-critical projects." This portfolio expansion is expected to bring all the benefits of Commvault's advanced SaaS-delivered data management platform to the market, complemented by Logicalis' robust capabilities.
