TINTON FALLS, N.J. and AUCKLAND, New Zealand, July 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Commvault (NASDAQ: CVLT), a global leader in enterprise backup, recovery, archive and the cloud, today announced Two Degrees Mobile Limited (2degrees), New Zealand's newest full-service telecommunications provider, has extended its engagement with Commvault to include the deployment of Commvault HyperScale™ Software to support the modernisation of its data protection and management infrastructure.

Commvault HyperScale™ Technology brings cloud-ready, scale-out infrastructure to the Commvault Data Platform, providing customers with deployment flexibility and on-premises simplicity, elasticity, resiliency and scale for managing secondary data. 2degrees was already using Commvault's data protection solutions but recognised the need for a more holistic approach to its data management strategy. Together with HPE's high-density Apollo storage, Commvault HyperScale is helping 2degrees better scale and meet its growing data requirements as it seeks to modernise its environment.

"Before deploying Commvault HyperScale, we were spending a lot of time managing the ageing hardware in our traditional backup system, which was complex and not easily scalable for a growing business," said Chris Hall, Head of IT, 2degrees. "The new Commvault HyperScale solution reduces the complexity of the data protection environment and allows us to support multiple environments such as on-premise and the cloud. The deployment supports our data management strategy as we transform to meet the demands of operating in the digital age and allows us to utilise our data assets more effectively."

"Commvault is uniquely poised to help customers succeed in today's digital economy by ensuring they put data at the core of their operations," said Rob Malkin, Vice President for Australia and New Zealand, Commvault. "Commvault prides itself on helping organisations accelerate their digital transformation journeys, enabling them to drive innovation by delivering peace of mind – knowing that their data is both protected and accessible. We are pleased to be working with one of New Zealand's fastest growing telco providers and look forward to delivering the agility and efficiency they need to drive competitive advantage."

About 2degrees NZ
Communication comes naturally to you. It's easy. And at 2degrees we want to keep it that way.

Back in 2009 we burst into the market determined to give Kiwis a better choice of telco and a fairer deal. From day one we challenged the status quo by halving the price of calls and texts and overnight freeing people to use their mobile for less than ever before.

Since then we've invested more than $680m into building our own new mobile network to cover 98.5% of the places that New Zealanders live, work and play. Later, we set our sights on broadband and acquired a NZ-based internet service provider in 2015 to offer ADSL, VDSL and UFB services, supported by award-winning, NZ-based customer care.

In 2017 we announced a maiden profit of $13.4m for the year ended December 31 2016. Today we're a fast growing business with more than one million customers, a 1200-strong team and 55 retail outlets throughout the country.
