Intelligent data re-use

Reuse your backup data to ensure security, compliance, recoverability, successful upgrades and make smarter decisions.

A gold mine of valuable data is wrapped up in your backups and replicas. These copies of your production data typically sit idle, collecting dust and waiting to be used in a recovery scenario. Did you know that you can use this copy data for use cases that are well beyond traditional backup and recovery? With Veeam® DataLabs™ – part of Veeam Backup & Replication™ – you can!

Adding to the longstanding ability to verify the recoverability of backups and replicas, Veeam DataLabs unlocks multiple use cases for copy data that goes beyond data protection and drives cost and operational efficiency while improving business agility. This includes the ability to achieve faster application deployment, mitigate risk by testing new upgrades and patches before rolling them out, DevOps, DevTest and even security and compliance verification.

Secure replication

Use imaged-based replication and streamlined disaster recovery (DR) for increased speed, security and availability. 

Availability via built-in replication.

Ensuring that your organization’s mission-critical data remains available is essential to delivering on SLAs. In today’s age of massive unstructured data growth, regulatory compliance requirements for DR and retention and the constant threat to data through malicious acts, the 3-2-1 rule is more important than ever. Veeam® Backup & Replication™ makes this simple with built-in replication that ensures your data gets to its destination in an encrypted fashion that’s delivered quickly. Avoid data loss and dramatically improve your recovery time and point objectives (RTOs/RPOs) to <15 minutes for ALL applications and data, minimizing the impact on your infrastructure.

To remain best protected, you should follow the 3-2-1 rule; have at least three copies of your data stored in two locations, with at least one being kept offsite. Let’s add to that by adding another “1” to the rule where one of the media copies is offline or immutable, and a “0” to show that the backup was verified and ready for recovery.

Built-in replication

To get the best Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), Veeam Backup & Replication can create an exact copy of your VM in a ready-to-start state, stored natively on a spare host in VMware vSphere or Hyper-V.

Accelerate any WAN

Solving common problems encountered during off-site backups, Veeam Backup & Replication gets data to its destination on through built-in WAN acceleration delivered by combining compression, multi-streaming and deduplication.

Keep your data safe

Ensure that data arrives safely to its destination with 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption. Adding network traffic encryption is configured as part of global network traffic rules making management a simple, global task.

Smart storage

Create fast backups and replicas from snapshots by using hardware from nearly any storage provider, without lock-in.

Backup from Storage Snapshots:

Create backups and replicas directly from storage snapshots.

Integrate with the world’s leading storage providers

Minimize data loss without sacrificing productivity

Back up and replicate as often as every 15 minutes

Fast VMware vSphere Backup with Low RPOs

Achieve High Availability through a combination of Veeam® Backup & Replication™ and the world’s leading storage providers. With Veeam, you can create true backups and replicas from snapshots as often as you’d like — even during business hours — with little to no impact on your production environment.

Dramatically Improve VMware vSphere Backup

Taking VMware vSphere snapshots can significantly slow virtual machine (VM) performance and require considerable effort to meet SLAs.

Veeam improves this process by providing built-in integration with your production storage and leveraging storage snapshot functionality to reduce the impact on the environment from vSphere snapshot removal during backup and replication.

Don’t be stuck with once-a-day backups for I/O intensive workloads—make backups and replicas as often as every 15 minutes!

Reduce the Impact on Your Environment

Storage snapshots can be taken frequently with minimal impact to the production environment, but this can’t be your only backup solution. What if storage itself goes down or gets corrupted? Even with storage-based replication, you need to take your data out of the single-fault domain. This is why many customers prefer to also make true backups stored on different storage.

Veeam combines the best of both worlds with vSphere snapshots for application-consistent backups and storage snapshots for fast RPOs. Now you can:

Run backups at any time and frequency to improve RPOs

Dramatically reduce the impact of backup activities on your production environment

Speed up the process and back up from storage snapshots up to 50 times faster than with competing solutions

How It Works:

Veeam Backup & Replication works with storage providers and VMware to create backups and replicas from storage snapshots. The backup/replica job:

Analyzes which VMs in the job have disks on supported storage.

Triggers a vSphere snapshot for all VMs located on the same storage volume. (As a part of a vSphere snapshot, Veeam’s application-aware processing of each VM is performed normally.)

Triggers a snapshot of the storage volume once all VM snapshots have been created.

Retrieves the CBT information for VM snapshots created in step two.

Triggers the removal of vSphere snapshots on production VMs.

Mounts the snapshot to a backup proxy connected to the storage fabric.

Reads new and changed virtual disk data blocks directly from the storage snapshot and transports them to the backup repository or replica VM.

Removes the storage snapshot once all VMs are backed up.

As a result, VMs run off snapshots for the shortest possible time, while jobs obtain data from VM snapshot files preserved in the storage snapshot. Because of this, VM snapshots do not get a chance to grow and can be committed very quickly without overloading production storage with extended merge procedures, as is the case with classic techniques for backing up from VM snapshots, Read more

Restore from a Storage Snapshot in Minutes

With Veeam Explorer for Storage Snapshots, you can take advantage of the low overhead that periodic storage snapshots offer for low RPOs and let Veeam automate the whole recovery process for you, helping you deliver low RTOs as well. With this product, you can:

Recover guest OS files, application items or even an entire VM from a storage snapshot in two minutes or less.

Restore directly from storage snapshots, eliminating the need for staging snapshot contents to disk and intermediate restores.

Reduce the time needed to mount snapshots by over 10 times compared to manual processes, which lowers your RTOs and avoids human errors that can occur during critical recovery steps.

And more!

And it’s easy to use — just a few clicks in the Veeam interface and you can restore directly from any of Veeam’s storage partners.

How It Works:

Veeam works with the world’s leading storage providers to enable granular recovery from storage snapshots.

Here’s how it works:

 Storage is instructed to create a writeable copy of the required volume snapshot.

This copy is mounted as the new datastore to the selected vSphere host.

The restored VM is temporarily registered on the host so Instant VM Recovery® of the entire VM can be immediately performed.

For granular restores, the backup server further mounts the temporary VM’s virtual disk through VMware VADP, and then the user can start restoring guest OS files and application items.

After recovery is complete, the datastore is unmounted from the proxy host and a copy of the volume snapshot is deleted.
