How Commvault, Google Cloud, and Clumio are redefining data resilience for the cloud era

Just wrapped a great conversation with Woon Ho Jung, CTO - Cloud Native, Commvault, at Google Cloud Next 2026 and this one hit a nerve. Everyone is talking about multi-cloud, AI pipelines, and scaling data.But almost no one is talking about what’s quietly breaking underneath it all. Data protection. We got into what’s really happening inside enterprises today.Teams assume replication and retention policies are enough. They’re not.At scale, across billions of objects, things get messy fast. Gaps show up where you least expect them.That’s where the big announcement comes in. Clumio is going deeper with Google Cloud. Clumio for GCP is not just another backup solution. It’s a rethink of how you protect cloud-native data, especially inside Google Cloud Storage where most AI and analytics pipelines live today.What stood out to me:- Protecting data at massive scale is still an unsolved problem for many teamsNative tools give a false sense of security- Resilience in the AI era needs a completely different approachIf you’re building on Google Cloud right now, this is something you need to pay attention to. This is not about backup. This is about trust in your data layer.#data #ai #commvault #security #googlecloudnext #api #google #theravitshow
