Overview
Commvault Cloud Rewind goes beyond backup and recovery of simple compute instances, filesystems, and databases to offer end-to-end protection of complex, composable, cloud-native applications. It enables automated, point-in-time recovery of full application environments, complete with configuration data and metadata. The result is true cloud-native cyber resilience with rapid rebuild capabilities that minimize downtime, drastically reduce MTTR, and enable faster restoration of business operations.
Cloud Rewind continuously discovers and maps the dependencies of cloud resources within your application environment. It protects all the discovered configurations, dependencies, and application data with configurable policies to align with your organizations RPO requirements. This includes VPCs, subnets, load balancers, security groups, route tables and other important cloud constructs. This data is stored in an isolated, air-gapped tenant managed by Commvault for added security and greater recoverability.
After an application outage or disruption, organizations can rapidly recover applications or rebuild entire application environments on-demand with customized precision. Cloud Rewind uses native AWS CloudFormation Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) to automate orchestrated, point-in-time restores of application environments. Recovery can be done across Availability Zones, Regions, and accounts, providing flexibility to restore operations faster or use Cloud Rewind to test recovery of live production environments to improve your organizations cyber readiness.
Commvault Cloud Rewind is available as an AWS-based SaaS offering so you can easily get started in minutes without the need to deploy or manage infrastructure.

I rate Appranix Cloud Application Resilience a nine out of ten.Â
Cross-region application resilience and recovery in a single click
Appranix solves the basic problem of backup and recovery in the local region very similar to traditional datacenter. However, with Appranix, we are able to achieve a complete application recovery along with VPC configurations, security groups, and other networking configurations as easily as a single click for a complete business application. We feel we could use Appranix capabilities for a complete cloud region failure recovery or even for distributing production environments across to a different region in another country.
Compared to traditional disaster recovery software vendors trying to cloud wash and offer services on the cloud, Appranix is a true cloud-native disaster recovery service. Appranix doesn’t need any expensive data management infrastructure software on top of the cloud infrastructure services. A lot of new cloud users misunderstand how cloud platforms work when they move from a datacenter based operating model. For instance, a single external storage volume from a storage system could be shared among many virtual machines making it hard to protect a specific virtual machine and applications running on it. In the cloud IaaS world, a single external storage volume is attached to a single virtual machine. This fundamental change offers a unique opportunity to control how applications are protected and recovered. Appranix only uses the built-in cloud-native services to protect our cloud environments composed of our EC2 virtual machines, EBS external storage, Security groups, Load Balancers, VPCs, DHCP options, Customer Gateways, Internet Gateways, etc. Appranix automatically discovers and allows a cloud assembly creation to segment application boundaries for various tiers. You can create tier-1 business-critical applications or other tiers based on application SLOs. Appranix combines backup-as-a-service and DR-as-a-Service together for the entire cloud application environment using an environment time machine. Now, Appranix makes it much easier for our cloud operations team to provide app-centric resiliency with the capability to go back in time and recover the entire application environment in the primary region of the cloud or an alternative region to recover from any type of disruption or a disaster.
