New innovations simplify data activation and resilience management through secure AI integration
Commvault recently announced two major innovations that redefine how enterprises activate and protect their data in the age of artificial intelligence (AI).
The introduction of Data Rooms and Commvault’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) server represents a significant step forward in enabling organizations to securely connect backup data with AI platforms and manage resilience tasks through natural language.
Data Rooms is a secure environment that enables enterprises to safely connect trusted backup data to the AI platforms they rely on, or to their own AI initiatives, such as internal data lakes. It combines governed, self-service access with built-in classification and compliance controls, bridging the gap between data protection and data activation and helping organizations transform backup data into AI-ready assets without adding new risk or complexity.
New opportunities
“With Commvault Data Rooms, enterprises can confidently export their secondary data and harness it with the AI platform of their choice to unlock new opportunities for intelligence, innovation, and business growth,” remarked Pranay Ahlawat, Chief Technology and AI Officer, Commvault.
Commvault also introduced the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, a policy-based bridge connecting enterprise systems with popular GenAI assistants such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT Enterprise and Anthropic’s Claude.
Every conversational interaction with Commvault Cloud takes place through Commvault’s policy-based MCP server, which governs authentication, access, and encryption. In addition, Commvault does not use or train external AI models with customer data or inputs.
