Case Study: HCL achieves unified cloud backup and disaster recovery, reducing cost and risk with Commvault

Energizing the journey to the cloud

A global integrated chemicals and energy company preparing a cloud strategy found its legacy, multi‑vendor backup environment — including a 4,400‑tape library — was too costly and fragmented to support modernization. The organization lacked effective disaster recovery, missed recovery SLAs, endured long backup windows, had gaps in workload and VM protection, and needed to reduce both operational cost and risk.

HCL and Commvault delivered a unified solution using Commvault Complete Data Protection and HCL Infonomics to consolidate backup and DR, migrate data to cost‑effective cloud targets, and automate data management with workflows and APIs. The result was a centralized backup and DR platform that eliminated silos, lowered cost and complexity, improved visibility and protection, accelerated the transition, and delivered greater scalability, governance and reduced risk.
