Osmium Data Group had the pleasure to cover the 2025 edition of Commvault SHIFT, aired in EMEA on Wednesday 19-Nov-25. The event was rich in content, perspectives, and announcements. We are distilling below the key points and takeaways from our perspective, starting with AI Resilience, then delving into product announcements, to close on Mean Time to Cyber Recovery, an acronym that makes sense.

When we think about building resilient systems for our personal usage of technology and making sure that we are not becoming dependent on too many services and live under the illusion that we cannot live without this or that, it helps to proceed methodically. I think that we need to start by performing an assessment of the services that we're using and look at what is needed, critical, essential versus what is desirable.

For the past year and something, I've been on an inner journey, a personal quest to improve my life across multiple aspects such as health, relationships, skills, focus, etc. Doing so required understanding what my inner purpose is, and what is my values compass: what legacy I want to live once I'm gone (memento mori), how I want my family and friends to remember me, and what positive impact I want to have on people.
