NASHVILLE – November 10, 2026 – Commvault (NASDAQ: CVLT), delivering continuous recovery for the AI era, today announced Commvault Recovery Studio, a new approach to enterprise recovery that will use precise automation to bring back the business, not just the data. It will orchestrate the recovery of applications, identities, configurations, infrastructure dependencies, and datasets together in an automated, runbook-driven workflow to help organizations resume business operations fast.

This ushers in a big shift in how businesses recover. With this type of automation, businesses can say goodbye to manual and painstaking attempts to restore complicated business services in a fragmented fashion that can result in downtime and data loss. Think of it like this: just one application can remain offline without the infrastructure, configurations, and identities needed to function properly. A large enterprise may need to restore hundreds of applications and thousands of identities – including the configurations and underlying data – all in the right order at the right time. It’s no wonder that with conventional approaches, recovery to even a minimal level of operation takes an average of 28 days1 – far too long in an era where processes operate at machine speed.

With Recovery Studio, organizations will be able to:

  • Recover the full stack: Replace manual processes with automation that reconstructs and validates the vast arrays of interconnected components in the right sequence in a context-aware runbook. These components not only include containers, VMs, files, and objects, but also extend to identity systems, application configurations, infrastructure configurations, and security and network settings.
  • Build data security checks into recovery: Enable automated threat scanning for supported resources in the runbook to identify compromised areas and inform recovery decisions before returning services to production.
  • Standardize across all recovery scenarios: Utilize one platform for a variety of recovery scenarios, including operational, disaster, and cyber recoveries. Unified runbooks automate infrastructure rebuilds, workload recovery, and the orchestration of security controls, such as firewall rules and network security groups and settings – all actions needed to rebuild the business, not just recover data.

“This is the DevOps moment for recovery,” said Pranay Ahlawat, Chief Technology & AI Officer, Commvault. “Recovery Studio replaces spreadsheets and war rooms with one orchestrated flow, from in-place to cleanroom, that brings the whole business back in the right order, including identities and cloud configurations.”

“This type of meaningful innovation can truly reshape how work gets done and how services are restored following a disruption,” said Chris Cola, Vice President, Information Technology & CIO, B&G Foods. “And, with the security checks that are built into the automated workflows, that elevates confidence levels that what we’re restoring is trusted and ready to return to production.”

“For cloud-based applications, recovery must include infrastructure, network, and identity configurations as well as the data, files, and objects,” said Johnny Yu, Research Manager, IDC. “Commvault’s offering addresses the complexity of full application revival by allowing organizations to build and validate recovery runbooks for different applications and scenarios in a unified hub.”

Availability

Recovery Studio is targeted for early access in December, with general availability planned in the coming months. Pricing will be based on the amount of data configured for orchestrated recovery.
