DPF is ideal for customers who want to protect file and NAS data, but dont have and/or need to backup a lot of
application data. The App Add-On is specifically designed to be used with DPF to meet customers application
backup needs. Customers can mix DPF and DPA in the same CommCell. Customers can also mix Solution Set
licensing with DPF and DPA since they are metered separately.
DPA provides unlimited File System agents and NAS / NDMP agents; as well as unlimited Application and Database
support for Microsoft (Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint, AD), Linux/Unix (MySQL, Oracle, Lotus Notes, DB2) and SAP.
**Not all applications for Microsoft & Linux/Unix are provided in the list above.**
DPA provides Data Protection Snapshot (DPS) and Replication (DPSR) capabilities. Snapshots (IntelliSnap) protect
data quickly and efficiently while offering frequency settings to help reduce potential data loss by having multiple
recovery points throughout production hours. Recovery takes minutes compared to hours for recovering from disk,
tape or cloud. Please refer to the IntelliSnap Recovery Solution page for more information.
The Vault Tracker Enterprise feature helps you to manage media (tape) that are removed from a library and stored
in offsite locations. It provides chain of custody tracking and an Iron Mountain plug-in.
Ops Reporting offers users access to the full set of Metrics Reporting, Data Analytics and custom reports features
from the software store.

Speed of protection. Application-aware hardware snapshots only takes minutes vs. hours for regular backup.
Frequency of protection. Users can determine their own personal frequency settings to protect their systems as
often as they want. Existing backup products typically only protect your data once every 24 hours, but with
IntelliSnap you can take hundreds of snapshots every day, which significantly lowers your potential loss of data.
Speed of recovery. IntelliSnap technology recovers applications within minutes by orchestrating the data

Streamline Disaster Recovery (DR) Processes. Users can get their data back without having to wait days for
tapes to be retrieved from offsite storage.
Manage Development and Test Projects. Replicate data to create secondary copies of data to be used in a
variety of development and testing purposes. Analyze data for compliance, utilization, space purposes, etc.

Reduce Costs. Cloud Disk Storage and Tape Storage allows users to retain information for a long period of time
and have it readily available rather than invest in disks and tapes which can be expensive to maintain over time.
Convert your storage costs from CAPEX to OPEX.
Get to the cloud more securely. Commvault offers embedded encryption engines that protect users data while it
is being transmitted and stored within the cloud.
Get to the cloud more reliably. Commvault can do the migration of data as well as perform data management
so the data is always accessible as users go through the transition from tape/disk backup.
Get to the cloud faster. Commvault has numerous deployment options for transmitting data to the cloud because
we know that different types of data and applications have different characteristics. Data Deduplication and
Optimization is efficient for most purposes. However, Cloud Replication can be used for transitioning entire
databases. Most competitors only have one way to transmit data to the cloud.
