Commvault partners with Pinecone for AI stack protection

Commvault (CVLT) partnered with Pinecone to bring cyber resilience capabilities to joint customers, helping enterprises protect and rapidly recover vector retrieval workloads that power retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG, and other AI use cases. With the rise of vectors as a critical data type for AI applications, this solution extends Commvault’s capabilities to include these workloads. Vector databases such as Pinecone store numerical representations-digital fingerprints that capture relationships among text, images, and other content. They are foundational to AI accuracy. This new offering includes options for safeguarding this data against corruption, deletion, or attacks. Commvault’s solution enables immutable backup, point-in-time-recovery, and customizable extended retention of vector data-in addition to Pinecone’s object-storage and built-in backup system-all without impacting query latency. Delivered via Commvault Cloud, the solution supports Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and multi-cloud deployments. The integration between Commvault and Pinecone is targeted for general availability globally in the first half of 2026.
