DataCore and CommVault Collaborate To Deliver Enterprise Data Protection for Microsoft® Windows®

Partnership Offers Field-Tested Solutions For Business Continuity

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. (May 21, 2001) — DataCore Software, a leading provider of enterprise-class, open storage networking software, announced its SANvantage^SM partnership with CommVault Systems, a leading provider of enterprise data management solutions. The two companies are jointly delivering enterprise class data protection to customers in the Microsoft Windows environment. To formalize the relationship, CommVault Systems has joined DataCore's fast-growing partner network as a SANvantage technical partner. CommVault's data management and protection software, CommVault Galaxy, complements SANsymphony™ from DataCore, an open storage networking platform for enterprise-wide implementations.

"While IT organizations are facing a technical revolution driven by the emergence of storage networking, they face a tremendous challenge accommodating these new practices without interrupting access to critical data," said Dave West, vice president of business development, CommVault Systems. "Our partnership strengthens DataCore's leadership in storage networking software and extends CommVault's Galaxy high-performance data management and protection in SAN enterprises."

IT managers are faced with data growth rates that exceed 100 percent annually. Most companies solve storage problems through a combination of adding hardware and personnel, which exponentially increases storage costs. CommVault Galaxy is the only enterprise class data protection product specifically designed to provide heterogeneous storage and data management from a Microsoft Windows platform. The software solution is engineered to provide easy access to application data, manage scale and diversity in enterprise environments, ensure data integrity and eliminate soft data loss. This is especially important with the increasing popularity of Storage Area Networks (SAN). DataCore delivers maximum business value, productivity and ROI through extensible and powerful storage software offering cost-effective storage consolidation and centralized, automated management of local and remote online storage assets. Combining CommVault's Galaxy with SANsymphony software offers customers an integrated and simplified storage management approach. Pooling storage assets offers organizations immediate benefits in the form of improved ROI while reducing acquisition and operational costs that contribute to long-term total cost of ownership.

"Working with CommVault provides our customers with a sophisticated Microsoft Windows solution that removes complexity from the storage equation and helps customers achieve rapid benefits and returns," said Ken Horner, DataCore's vice president of marketing. "CommVault and DataCore are a logical fit for comprehensive data protection for enterprise storage environments."

The SANvantage Technical Partner Program was created to bring together industry leaders who deliver interoperable, open systems SAN technology to joint customers. The program is designed to equip CommVault with the tools, technical information, training and co-marketing support needed to successfully design and deploy "Powered by DataCore" solutions.
