Commvault has announced Recovery Studio, which orchestrates recovery of whole business services rather than individual datasets, and has extended AgentRecover to AI agents built on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and Microsoft Foundry. Both were announced on 10 November 2026.
Recovery Studio uses context-aware, runbook-driven automation to bring back applications together with the identities, configurations, infrastructure dependencies and data they need, restoring components in the right order. It covers containers, VMs, files and objects as well as identity systems and security and network settings such as firewall rules. Automated threat scanning can be built into a runbook to flag compromised areas before services return to production, and one platform handles operational, disaster and cyber recovery. Early access is targeted for December, general availability is planned in the coming months, and pricing will depend on the amount of data configured for orchestrated recovery.
AgentRecover addresses a newer risk, that an AI agent with access to connected systems can cause widespread changes at machine speed. It discovers agents on supported platforms and maps the data, applications, identities and infrastructure they touch, audits what an agent changed, and recovers both the agent and the affected resources. Support for Microsoft Foundry is targeted for early access this month and for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore in December.
Pranay Ahlawat, Commvault's Chief Technology and AI Officer, said: "Business logic is moving out of applications and into agents, and agents don't behave deterministically." He called Recovery Studio "the DevOps moment for recovery", replacing spreadsheets and war rooms with one orchestrated flow.
