# Protect Pinecone using Commvault

Commvault provides protection for Pinecone vector data by capturing and storing index data outside the Pinecone environment. This approach helps ensure data durability and enables recovery independent of the source system.

The integration supports protection of vector indexes and associated metadata, allowing organizations to maintain the integrity and availability of data used in AI and search workloads. By storing protected data in managed storage, Commvault helps reduce the risk of data loss and supports operational resilience.

## Supported cloud platforms

Commvault supports Pinecone indexes hosted on the following platforms:

- Amazon Web Services (AWS)

- Microsoft Azure

- Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

### Platform and storage integration matrix

Index location (backup from / restore to) | Backup storage integration / staging | Restore storage integration / staging
--- | --- | ---
Azure | Azure / AWS | Azure
AWS | Azure / AWS | AWS / Azure
GCP | Azure / AWS | Azure

## Backup and restore capabilities

### Backups

- Commvault performs full backups of Pinecone indexes at the index level.

- Backup data is staged in Azure or AWS storage, regardless of where the source index is hosted.

### Restores

You can restore indexes in-place to the same Pinecone account or out-of-place to a different Pinecone account.
