The combination of ECS and Commvault data and information management software provides a modern solution for data protection and preservation. This simple, flexible, cost-effective, and scalable solution lets enterprises address their needs—from data protection to preservation—while providing secure self-service access to data. ECS and Commvault provide installation flexibility, with support for popular object interfaces including S3 as well as CAS, Swift, and Atmos REST.
This paper describes best practices and solution-specific configuration steps for deploying Commvault with Dell ECS for both basic and advanced deployments. Basic best practices enable quick, easy, and straightforward deployments using the fewest settings to get started. The advanced best practices identify opportunities to configure the system for performance, scalability, or highly secure environments for a more optimized deployment model. This optimized deployment model requires a high level of knowledge, support, and time to plan the deployment of all the components in advance.
