If you haven’t noticed, Veeam is a very busy company! One of the critical ways that I personally do what I do here (and it is a long list!) is through one of our lab environments. A number of different groups at Veeam have lab functions, and in this blog post, I’ll focus on the SSA lab.

This is not an April Fool’s joke! Last year, Veeam launched the not-for-resale (NFR) promotion for VMware VCPs, VCIs and vExperts (VCAPs and VCDXs as well). This provides VMware community members 2 sockets of two popular Veeam products. This is a very successful program, but in case you haven’t heard, the VMware community can still have NFR licensing for Veeam Backup & Replication v5 and Veeam ONE.
There is only one guideline for this program:
A NFR license can only be used in non-production environment and for evaluation, demonstration and training purposes only.
These are the perfect tools for a VMware lab environment. Veeam Backup & Replication v5 is great for backup and restore capability. Plus, this offering of Veeam ONE includes three products: Veeam Monitor, Veeam Reporter and Veeam Business View which provide great visibility into the VMware environment.

Last month, we announced a Valentine’s Day contest to show the Veeam love. We asked for you to send your pictures of Veeam, and the winner would receive an iPod Nano. The photos were placed on , and Jacint’s entry received the most “Likes.” How can you not enjoy this repurposing of a Veeam swag bag?!
Congratulations to Jacint, and be sure to visit our as we continue to offer exclusive content there as well.

I’m sorry to say that Veeam will not be co-sponsoring the V after all.
As we all know, this event has changed quite a bit since its inception on Twitter among a group of friends. It’s yet another illustration of the power of Twitter to unite the virtualization community – which is great.
I believe it started as a casual discussion that since so many virtual Twitter friends are runners, it would be fun to get together for an early-morning run one morning before VMworld.
That sounded like fun to us, too. The runners among the Veeam team were looking forward to it. Since sponsors were being sought, we were very happy to chip in with some fun commemorative t-shirts. We did a quick design, and were just about ready to send in the order when we learned the event had morphed into something much larger and more formal, a part of the actual conference. Not blaming anyone for this, and we can certainly understand how it happened.
The new organizers did approach us about a sponsorship, but they already had a t-shirt design, and were looking for $2,500 to sponsor shuttle busses to/from the location. Worst of all, the time had changed to Monday evening, directly conflicting with the exhibit hall opening reception. So we can’t even participate --- we’ll be working the booth then.
We’re already a Gold sponsor of VMworld, hosting a partner/customer party (let us know if you haven’t received your invitation!), as well as lots of other side activities and meetings. We’re very happy to help out with the . But this run has, unfortunately, turned into something we’re just not able to do. Our budget and resources aren’t infinite.
Please do join and the others on the run. Hope those of you who run have a great time. Sorry we can’t join you.
Veeam is #1 for VMware backup
