There are many reasons to register for our Connections 22 virtual event on November 2nd<\/sup> or 3rd <\/sup>2022 In fact, we could have added more! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With so many new additions to the Connections experience, including Virtual Exhibit Booths, a DemoZone, the Connections Challenge, and even more opportunities to network, here are our (non-definitive) reasons why you should spend a few hours with the best of data management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.<\/strong> Keynote \u2013 Innovate with Confidence<\/strong>
Our CEO Sanjay Mirchandani believes there has never been a better time to be in IT. His inspiring keynote focuses on how you and your team can innovate with confidence by removing complexity, going on the offensive, and embracing cloud data management.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.<\/strong> Connections is THE Cloud Data Management Experience<\/strong>
As Gartner recently confirmed, *Commvault has the leading data protection solution for customers embarking on their cloud journey (and this was for the third time straight). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our supported technologies and partnerships with top-tier cloud providers stand apart, and Connections 22 follows suit \u2013 no other data protection event can boast Microsoft, Oracle, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) on the bill (now that\u2019s multi-cloud).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Join the #CVConnections22 Social Conversation<\/strong>
During and after the event, make sure you keep your socials close to track and engage in the lively #CVConnections22 conversation online. Share your highlights and key takeaways \u2013 we want to know what you think!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.<\/strong> Roadmap Session<\/strong>
For many attendees, Ranga Rajagopalan\u2019s roadmap session is the highlight of our packed agenda. With innovations coming thick and fast, we\u2019re delving into what\u2019s new for our Intelligent Data Services Platform \u2013 including our #DMaaS Metallic solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.<\/strong> Take the Connections Challenge<\/strong>
Did someone say SWAG? Yes \u2013 we did, loud and clear. Points mean prizes at Connections 22, and by participating in the **Connections Challenge, you could win some awesome giveaways, including a $5,000 AMEX vacation voucher (and you can relax with the knowledge that your data is safe and sound with Commvault).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6.<\/strong> The Experience (no Zoom here)<\/strong>
Connections 22 is a Zoom-free zone \u2013 and it\u2019s definitely NOT death by slideware. As well as our keynote sessions, you will have access to DemoZones, Exhibit Booths, and a Networking lounge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7.<\/strong> Fending Off Ransomware Track<\/strong>
While they may be inevitable, breaches, leaks, and losses don\u2019t have to be disasters. Go on the offense with our proactive and responsive data protection capabilities that keep your data safe and your company out of the headlines. From cyber deception to recovery, see the most comprehensive cybersecurity portfolio available in the industry today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8.<\/strong> Investing Wisely Track<\/strong>
Innovation may be priceless, but budgets aren\u2019t endless. We can help you find the right balance, gaining value from your data while managing your costs to protect it on your journey to the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9.<\/strong> Modernizing Data Management Track<\/strong>
When your business dreams it, you need to deliver. Take charge by embracing a modern data management strategy that intelligently and quickly scales, supports new workloads, and enables you to use your data in creative ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10.<\/strong> Customers!<\/strong>
Customers are a huge part of our Connections 22 agenda and take a starring role throughout the day\u2019s sessions. As well as our top-rated customer panel starring leaders from Oral Roberts University, customers are featured throughout our technical track sessions, including CHS Inc. and Swinerton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11.<\/strong> DemoZone<\/strong>
Sometimes there is nothing better than a good demo. At Connections 22, you’re in luck! Our DemoZone shows off our Commvault portfolio in a selection of customer use cases, including Unified Data Management and Protection and Defending Data with Cyber Deception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12. Exhibit Booths<\/strong>
Another \u201cfirst\u201d for Connections 2022, make sure you visit our Exhibit Booths where our sponsors Microsoft, Oracle, and AWS are ready and waiting to engage and answer any questions you may have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13.<\/strong> Networking \u2013 Engage with Peers \u2013 Community Hub<\/strong>
There is so much to explore at Connections 22, including our new Customer Networking area, where you can meet and rub virtual elbows with fellow attendees. Available from the home screen \u2013 it is a key destination (and where the cool kids hang out). See you there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14.<\/strong> Customer Innovation Awards<\/strong>
Also new for this year is Commvault\u2019s first-ever Customer Innovation Awards! The finalists are set \u2013 but who will take home the spoils? Tune in to find out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15.<\/strong> Three Time Zones, One Virtual Event Experience<\/strong>
Connections 22 is an experience best consumed live to take advantage of all the networking and engagement opportunities we offer (see reason no. 13). To help everyone get that opportunity, we have three time zones optimized for our U.S., APJ, and EMEA attendees. Go to the agenda page here<\/a> and select your preferred time zone to see what works best for your schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. First look at new Commvault Portfolio additions<\/strong>
Where can you get a first look at the latest Commvault Portfolio additions? Connections 22, of course. We can\u2019t give the game away just yet, but let\u2019s just say that you don\u2019t want to miss our Roadmap session and our \u201cControl Storage Costs and Lower Risks using our latest SaaS-delivered Data Service\u201d session in our Investing Wisely Track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17. The Modern CIO\u2019s Journey to the Cloud<\/strong>
During this must-see session of Connections 22, our CMO, Isabelle Guis, interviews Michele Buschman, CIO of American Pacific Mortgage. Michele describes the ups and downs of cloud transformation within an enterprise and leaves you with a clear, five-step checklist you can use for your own cloud journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18.<\/strong> Microsoft Session \u2013 Protect Your Critical Assets with Azure<\/strong>
Businesses use multiple applications running their day-to-day operations, with every minute of downtime negatively impacting customer trust. Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plans ensure that services can continue to operate during maintenance, failure, and large-scale outages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join Saurabh Sensharma of Microsoft and David Ngo, CTO of Metallic, for this session to learn about Azure and Commvault solutions integrated with and built on Azure that help customers protect their critical assets, including VMs, databases, PaaS and SaaS services (like M365). Check out the latest product releases, customer examples, product experience, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19. Oracle Session: Protecting Against Ransomware in a Multi-Cloud World<\/strong>
Multi-cloud environments bring customers options, efficiency, and price performance. They also increase complexity and the potential for security breaches. Join Joe Corvaia of Oracle and Commvault\u2019s Alan Atkinson to discover how cloud infrastructure hyperscaler Oracle is optimized for the expanding multi-cloud universe \u2013 and how they are working with partners like Commvault to provide ransomware and security solutions for enterprise customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

20.<\/strong> AWS Session: Transforming and Modernizing Your Data Strategy<\/strong>
Our decades-long relationship with AWS is built on a shared customer obsession. Join AWS\u2019 Jake Burns, IDC\u2019s Archana Venkatraman, and Commvault\u2019s Vidya Shankaran for their Connections session on Transforming and Modernizing Your Data Strategy<\/strong>, where they will discuss recent trends in data management and digital transformation. You will also gain valuable insight into how your organization can be more efficient, more resilient, and better prepared should disaster strike \u2013 and do it all with minimal impact on your bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

21.<\/strong> Celebrate three years of Metallic, our DMaaS portfolio<\/strong>
Our award-winning Data Management as a Service (DMaaS) portfolio, Metallic, has just turned three years old.
