‘Veeam Data Platform is recognition that our portfolio of products are integrated closely. It recognizes the power of the entire platform. Veeam is managing data across SaaS, cloud, and data center environments and the edge. We’re showing the future of managing data sets across all these different environments,’ says Danny Allan, Veeam’s chief technology officer and vice president of product strategy.

 ARTICLE TITLE HERE

Data protection and management technology developer Tuesday released version 12 of its Veeam Backup & Replication software and made it available as part of a new offering, the Veeam Data Platform, which includes such new capabilities as direct to object storage backups, enhanced immutability, and a “SWAT” team to escalate issues.

Veeam Data Platform brings data security, data recovery, and close cloud compatibility into a single offering aimed squarely at channel partners and their customers, said Danny Allan, chief technology officer and vice president of product strategy for the Columbus, Ohio-based company.

“Veeam Data Platform is recognition that our portfolio of products are integrated closely,” Allan told CRN. “It recognizes the power of the entire platform. Veeam is managing data across SaaS, cloud, and data center environments and the edge. We’re showing the future of managing data sets across all these different environments.”

With Veeam Data Platform, Veeam is very focused on three key business requirements, Allan said.

They include data freedom, which is the flexibility to move data across hybrid environments; data security, which is done via immutable backups and new anti-ransomware capabilities; and data recovery from any environment, he said.

Allan did not include data protection among the list of customer needs. “I didn’t mention data protection, but its fundamental to all the other three,” he said.

Veeam over the years has continuously improved, said Deepak Thadani, vice president at Focal Point Solutions Group, an Ellenton, Fla.-based solution provider and longtime Veeam channel partner.

“We’ve built a whole business around data center replication with Veeam,” Thadani told CRN. “You read lots of news about compromised backups. Veeam never did that to us.”

Bob Ungaretti, vice president of cloud and backup services at Focal Point Solutions Group, told CRN that Veeam has a history of continually improving its technology.

“We’ve been using Veeam for 12 years, and have never lost a backup,” Ungaretti said. “And that’s very important to us.”

New to Veeam Data Platform is Veeam Direct to Object Storage backups. Allan said that customers often think cloud when it comes to protecting data, which often means Amazon S3 and Azure Blob object storage.

“But backing up data is also done on-premises,” he said. “So we support data on all the major storage vendors. Customers often do not have on-premises object storage, and so they want to send object data to the cloud.”

The new object store capability is very important to Focal Point Solutions given that the solution provider hosts customer data internally, Thadani said.

“This gives us finer control over the backups,” he said. “Veeam supporting object storage internally gives us another option to not need cloud storage.”

Security is also a highlight of Veeam Data Platform, Allan said. Veeam is adding data immutability, which prevents the changing or deleting of backed up data, for all workloads. It is also now allowing multi-factor authentication in the Veeam console, as well as support for authentication in Kerberos and IPV6 environments, he said.

The security of backed-up data is all-important, Thadani said.

“We’ll be implementing multi-factor authentication,” he said. “And we’ll be looking to offer immutability to customers as an option, without needing to implement multiple solutions to do it. These are important for customers looking to hold data for multiple years.”

Also new is Veeam’s Smart Storage API for object storage, which allows primary storage vendors to easily connect to Veeam Data Protection, Allan said. The company also updated its Universal API to better manage replication between on-premises arrays using the array vendors’ native APIs, he said.

Veeam is also showing it will stand behind the protection offered by Veeam Data Protection with a new ransomware warranty for customers that adopt the company’s suggested best practices for data protection, Allan said.

“This sheds the spotlight on our best practices,” he said. “To be eligible for the warranty, customers need to prove they have followed the best practices. We can implement those best practices for clients, or their channel partners can do it.”

One example of a best practices is ensuring that the Veeam backup and recovery server is not part of a customer’s primary storage domain. “This way, if an attack does get into the primary environment, it can’t move laterally to the Veeam backup and recovery server,” he said.

Forcing customers to follow best practices as a requirement for the ransomware warranty is a smart move by Veeam, Ungaretti said.

“For us, we’ve already isolated our Veeam backup and recovery server,” he said. “Customers who don’t are the ones that will have issues. It’s great to hear that the warranty is available only for customers who follow best practices.”

Activating a warranty in the event of an attack is something no solution provider should have to experience, Thadani said.

“So we’ll work to make sure we implement all the best practices,” he said.

Also new is a “SWAT” team from Veeam that will respond within 30 minutes to a ransomware attack, Allan said. The company provided support in case of ransomware attacks, but this is the first time with a 30-minute response time, he said.

The Veeam Data Platform is available in three versions.

The “good” version is Veeam Backup and Replication Version 12, which has several hundred new capabilities beyond the previous version 11, Allan said.

The “better” version, Veeam Data Protection Advanced Edition, adds comprehensive monitoring and analytics capabilities to help identify and resolve issues before problems arise.

The “best” version, Veeam Data Protection Premium Edition, adds Veeam’s recovery orchestration technology to automate recovery after an attack. This version is also required to take advantage of Veeam’s ransomware warranty, Allan said.

Veeam is getting widespread storage vendor support for its new technology. The company’s new Smart Storage API is being used by such companies as Pure Storage, Scality, and Object First. Allan said over 80 storage vendors have had their APIs validated under the Veeam Ready program.

New York-based Vast Data Tuesday said it supports Veeam’s data immutability, instant recovery and operations, scalability enhancements, and direct-to-object backup, as well as Veeam’s universal API.

San Francisco-based Scality and Beverly, Mass.-based Object First Tuesday were the first two storage vendors to offer early integration with Veeam’s Smart Object Storage API, and Scality also supports Veeam’s new Direct to Object Storage.

Killexams : Amid Ransomware Deluge, Veeam Debuts New Data Platform

News

Amid Ransomware Deluge, Veeam Debuts New Data Platform

Citing protection against ransomware, Veeam Software unveiled a new data platform that builds upon its flagship Backup & Replication offering.

The new Veeam Data Platform from the Ohio-based data protection specialist adds more than 500 new features and enhancements for Veeam Backup & Replication v12. Those include direct-to-object storage backup, trusted immutability, cyber resiliency and hybrid cloud protection.

Coming in three enterprise editions, the new platform provides what the company calls three key requirements to keep a business running: data security, data recovery and data freedom to backup and use data from anywhere without platform or cloud lock-in.

As far as providing ransomware protection amid a years-long deluge of unceasing and expensive attacks, the company unveiled the Veeam Ransomware Warranty that includes:

  • Advanced onboarding support
  • A 30-minute time-to-first-response support service level (SLA)
  • A dedicated support account manager (SAM) for assistance and escalation
  • Quarterly health checks for best-practice operations
  • Design and Installation services through a Veeam Accredited Service Provider
  • In the event of a ransomware attack, Veeam will cover the cost of data recovery

Company execs noted the new data platform marks a change in the company's approach that goes beyond the usual industry practice of updating core products with new features and functionality. "While the market is always hungry for the next release from Veeam, today we are aligned around Veeam Data Platform delivering more innovation to keep businesses running," said a blog post authored by CTO Danny Allan and product strategy senior director Rick Vanover. "Veeam's been keeping the lights on for organizations around the world for over 16 years. The heart of Veeam Data Platform is secure backup and fast recovery, it's what Veeam is known for. Today the platform story is more real and relevant than ever."

As far as the standard announcement of new features and functionality, new direct-to-object storage backups were highlighted by the company:

  • Direct to On-premises Object Storage: "Send your enterprise scale datacenter backups directly to Veeam's broad ecosystem of object storage partners on-premises with the performance you need to meet your goals."
  • Direct to Cloud Object Storage: "Reduce the overall cost and complexity of managing new and existing infrastructure backups at the edge with direct backups to object storage in the cloud."

Along with the new direct-to-object storage backups, other highlights of the release as presented by Veeam include:

  • Trusted immutability for every workload: "Ensure backups can always be restored after a cyberattack with comprehensive, enterprise-grade immutability options from trusted vendors, including on-premises object, block and file storage, hardened repositories and deduplicating storage appliances, cloud object storage and tape."
  • Cyber resilient: "Enable the fastest response to ransomware attacks by identifying, alerting and restoring only clean data, including automation and proven recovery orchestration for all workloads. Empower a zero-trust journey with multi-factor authentication (MFA), password-less service accounts (gMSA) for Windows and single-use credentials for Linux, and fortify defense against cyberattacks with Kerberos-only and IPv6-only environment support".
  • Hybrid-cloud optimized: "Achieve even greater efficiency and security across the hybrid cloud with immutable backups for cloud-native AWS and Microsoft Azure workloads, new cloud-integrated agents for lift-and-shift workloads, and unified cloud monitoring and reporting."
  • Ecosystem Excellence: "Veeam Universal Storage API 2.0 and NEW Smart Object Storage API provide even more future-proofing for enterprise scalability and offsite resiliency. Ecosystem vendors include Pure Storage, Scality and Object First as the inaugural launch partners that integrate with these new APIs".

"Organizations are more vulnerable than ever," said Allan in a news release. "Over the past 12 months, 85 percent of organizations were attacked at least once; up from 76 percent in last year. "We understand IT leaders feel they aren't sufficiently protected and as IT environments continue to grow more complex and demanding, it's now obvious that Modern Data Protection must be integrated into the overall cyber preparedness plan. The Veeam Data Platform brings the best of Veeam solutions together to deliver a single platform with relentless security, reliable data recovery and trusted data freedom, and is designed to deliver our customers the choice to leverage the right solution that fits their needs and keeps their business running."

Those stats come from the company's 2023 Data Protection Trends report published last month. Along with noting that 85 percent of organizations had at least one ransomware attack last year, the survey-based report also revealed:

  • 79 percent of organizations have a protection gap
  • 80 percent of organizations will use BaaS/DRaaS for at least some of their servers
  • 15 percent of IT leaders consider protection of IaaS/SaaS workloads as the most important aspect of enterprise backup
  • 74 percent of organizations will use cloud-powered data protection services by 2025
  • 32 percent of organizations say improving reliability and success of backups will drive changing their enterprise backup solution in 2023

Killexams : MinIO Partners with Veeam, Launches New Support for Veeam Backup and Replication v12

Feb. 14, 2023 — Veeam Backup & Replication 12 adds the capability to use object storage as direct targets on the performance tier. The performance tier of a Veeam backup repository is the level used for fast access to the data. Previously, object storage could only be used for the capacity tier, an additional level for storing data that needs to be accessed less frequently. Now Veeam users can rely on a single storage platform to store backups. This is significant because it removes a level of complexity and a potential point of failure.

MinIO can now be used in both performance and capacity tiers. This matters because the ability to use MinIO in this way provides greater flexibility than when MinIO was previously limited to Veeam’s capacity tier, opening backup architectures to take advantage of MinIO’s performance and scalability where it is most needed.

It is important to understand that pairing MinIO with Veeam for both performance and capacity tiers simplifies backup architectures and operations. It is no longer necessary to maintain two separate storage platforms, one for each Veeam tier. You don’t need anything other than a single MinIO deployment to support Veeam. Storage architecture is flattened and system maintenance becomes easier. Veeam Backup & Replication 12 with MinIO extends this simplicity and speed to the storage layer.

MinIO Veeam 12 Beta 2 Benchmark

Developers at MinIO were fortunate to have the opportunity to test the backup and recovery performance of Veeam Backup & Replication 12 prior to its release (Beta 2). With the announcement that Veeam will introduce the ability to use object storage as a direct target, it’s more important than ever to understand the performance characteristics of object storage options. Object storage is inherently more flexible and scalable than file and block storage, making it a perfect fit for Veeam. With MinIO leading the object storage pack, the MinIO team set out to demonstrate the value of pairing MinIO with Veeam.

Together, Veeam Backup & Replication 12 Beta 2 backing up to MinIO exhibited stellar performance. The team measured throughput of (backend speed) of 12000 MB/s or 12 GB/s going from the vSphere cluster to our 8 node MinIO cluster. In our test, the only limit to how fast you can back up and restore virtual machines and virtual disks is the throughput you can get out of vSphere. Simply adding more vSphere hosts would have increased throughput.

This result demonstrates that MinIO is now one of the fastest direct targets available for Veeam Backup & Replication. Not only that, MinIO performs capably in both the performance and capacity tier. This simplifies backup architecture and operations, decreasing the potential for failure and error. All you need is MinIO and Veeam.

Veeam Backup & Replication 12 and MinIO for Fast and Efficient Backup and Restore

Veeam Backup & Replication 12 allows object storage to be used for both the performance and capacity tiers. This is important because it simplifies backup architectures and operations, resulting in more efficient and less error-prone processes.

MinIO is the fastest object store on the planet. Combine our highly scalable and high performance object storage software with Veeam’s high-performance API-driven architecture and you’ve got one of the fastest and most operations-friendly BC/DR environments possible.

MinIO now serves as both performance and capacity tiers for Veeam, simplifying backup architecture and storage operations.

Veeam, a backup and disaster recovery software company, has released Veeam Backup & Replication v12, a new version of its software. It is dubbed Backup & Replication v12 with 500-plus. It now includes direct-to-object-storage backup, improved immutability, cyber resiliency, hybrid cloud protection, and a new ransomware warranty with a SWAT recovery team.

The most latest version includes several new features, including the ability to directly restore virtual machines to a VMware vSphere Hypervisor. It also meets three critical business requirements: data security, data recovery, and data freedom to backup and use data from anywhere without platform or cloud lock-in. There are three enterprise editions available: Foundation, Advanced, and Premium. All editions contain Veeam’s award winning VBR and Instant Recovery; Advanced and Premium editions also deliver advanced resiliency features including monitoring, analytics and recovery.

It also includes improved backup capabilities for Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure cloud environments. The software can now protect data across multi-cloud environments such as Google Cloud Platform, AWS, and Azure, as well as several other data storage platforms.

Ransomware protection features in Veeam Backup & Replication v12 allow users to recover data encrypted by ransomware attacks. The software is available as a free trial or as a subscription service.

The new Veeam Ransomware Warranty, which supplements the Veeam Data Platform, ensures Veeam customers that in the event of a ransomware attack, Veeam will cover the cost of data recovery up to $5 million. The Veeam Ransomware Warranty includes a 30-minute support SLA, a dedicated support account manager, quarterly health checks for best-practice operations, and optional design and installation services through a Veeam Accredited Service Provider for eligible users[2]. Furthermore, in the event of an attack, Veeam will deploy the Veeam Ransomware SWAT team — a dedicated team of security support experts trained in ransomware recovery — to help fight for your business.

Killexams : Cloudian Integrates with New Veeam Data Platform for Breakthrough Security and Cost Reduction

Provides Direct-to-Object Storage Workflow for Simpler, More Secure Data Backup

SAN MATEO, Calif., February 14, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cloudian® today announced the integration of its HyperStore® object storage with the new Veeam® Data Platform, which includes Veeam Backup & Replication™ (VBR) v12. The newly released Veeam Data Platform lets customers simplify their data protection workflow by storing data directly to Cloudian on-prem object storage, eliminating the need for the primary backup tier and the associated costs. Cost savings will be further increased by up to 70 percent with Cloudian when compared to a public cloud solution. The new offering also enhances ransomware protection by immediately moving data to an immutable storage platform that is protected from hacker encryption.

Traditional backup workflows require multiple layers of storage platforms, including an intermediate layer for short-term storage, and a second layer – which is typically object storage – for longer-term data retention. The new Veeam Data Platform and Cloudian solution, for the first time, allows data to be stored directly to Cloudian’s secure object storage platform, thus eliminating the need for the costly intermediate layer.

"Organizations need solutions to help them protect more data, with fast, reliable recovery," said Larissa Crandall, vice president of Channel and Alliances at Veeam. "The new Veeam Data Platform is a single platform delivering more advanced data security, recovery, and hybrid cloud capabilities than ever before. Cloudian is leveraging the Veeam Data Platform, which includes VBR v12, to provide best-in-class secure backup, and fast, reliable recovery that keeps businesses running. With a direct-to-object storage workflow, we’re excited to bring this solution to our joint customers so they can benefit from solid ransomware protection and operational efficiencies."

With Cloudian as a target for the Veeam Data Platform, organizations will now be able to take full advantage of HyperStore’s benefits for all data under Veeam management, including:

  • Ransomware protection (S3 Object Lock): create immutable backups that prevent cybercriminals from deleting or altering data, enabling fast recovery of the uninfected data without paying ransom

  • Enterprise-grade security: protect data with encryption in flight and at rest, integrated firewall, RBAC/IAM and SAML access controls, and certification with the most rigorous regulatory requirements, such as Common Criteria, FIPS and SEC Rule 17a-4(f)

  • Data durability: configurable up to 14 nines of data availability to protect data from device failures

Additionally, Cloudian announced support for Veeam's new Smart Object Storage API (SOSAPI), allowing Veeam users, for the first time, to access HyperStore usage metrics from within the Veeam console to manage and plan their capacity utilization more easily.

"The new Veeam Data Platform and Cloudian solution represents a breakthrough in operational efficiency, security, and cost," said Larry Meese, VP of products and solutions at Cloudian. "By eliminating the intermediate staging layer required for other solutions, the Veeam Data Platform and Cloudian solution simplifies the workflow, accelerates backup to a ransomware-protected platform, and reduces the overall storage cost."

VAST Data, the data platform company for the AI-powered world, today announced support for the new Veeam Data Platform, extending the partnership between VAST and Veeam and empowering enterprise organisations to eliminate the threat of extended downtime following a ransomware attack. VAST also announced that Universal Storage is now Checked as Veeam Ready Object with Immutability, part of the Veeam Alliance Program, ensuring customers have a cyber-hardened platform with best-of-breed safeguards for all their critical data assets.

VAST’s Universal Storage delivers exabyte-scale all-flash storage for wide-ranging applications, including backups and fast restores with Veeam. VAST restores business-critical data and applications up to 50x faster than legacy purpose-built backup appliances (PBBAs). It can meet stringent recovery time objectives (RTOs) by providing 8x more backup performance at 40 per cent lower than legacy backup targets and object stores.

A joint VAST and Veeam customer that specialises in information and communications technology and business continuity, Plan B Limited New Zealand, says the combined VAST and Veeam solution allows them to create new products that disrupt the market. Diego Nievas, Director of Product and Technology Innovation at Plan B said, “We strive to get our customers not only the best possible experience, but also the most comprehensive set of products and services that allow them to sleep at night and not worry about cyber-attacks or anything that jeopardises their online and digital presence as well as operations. That is why we tightly partner with Veeam, who provides us with the best of breed technology for backup, recovery, and workload protection.”

Nievas continued: “However, we don’t stop there and we invest in the best backend technology that allows us to, out of the box, deliver on that peace of mind end-to-end. This means that, by partnering with VAST and Veeam combined, we can ring-fence our data with immutability that starts with the backup job creation and carries all the way through to the physical media. The value of de-risking our customers’ businesses is immeasurably high.”

VAST’s support for Veeam Data Platform provides the following benefits:

  • Data immutability: With Universal Storage now qualified as Veeam-Ready Object with Immutability, customers gain additional comprehensive ransomware protection that prevents critical data from being altered or destroyed by any individual before its expiration date.
  • Instant recovery and operations: In the event of an attack, customers can access all data directly from Universal Storage, keeping users online and productive.
  • Scalability enhancements: Veeam Data Platform introduces scalable gateway servers to Excellerate backup performance, complementing VAST’s ability to scale performance and capacity independently to support even the most aggressive backup windows and recovery objectives.
  • Direct-to-object backup: Admins can back up VMs directly to object storage using S3, increasing operational simplicity through the elimination of multiple storage tiers.
  • World-leading storage efficiency: VAST’s advanced data reduction technologies deliver storage cost savings in addition to Veeam’s built-in deduplication and compression.

“85 per cent of organisations had at least one ransomware attack in 2022, according to the latest Veeam Data Protection Trends Report,” said Andreas Neufert, Vice President of Product Management, Alliances at Veeam. “The new Veeam Data Platform, which includes Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) v12, is a single platform delivering more advanced data security, recovery, and hybrid cloud capabilities than ever before. With Veeam and VAST providing Modern Data Protection and recovery at scale, enterprises don’t need to divert their valuable time and resources to recovery and can keep their business running.”

“It’s universally understood that the primary data protection consideration in the ransomware age is how fast you can recover,” said George Axberg, Vice President of Data Protection at VAST Data. “That’s why VAST is proud to partner with Veeam to provide customers with instant recovery and access to data following an attack. Modern Data Protection software paired with VAST’s affordable all-flash target is a winning combination in the fight against ransomware, offering impacted organisations a clear path to business as usual.”
