Whether customers are evaluating new infrastructure platforms, looking to meet data sovereignty requirements, or strengthening their recovery strategy, service providers need the flexibility to be able to support a wide range of requirements without increasing operational complexity.

With Veeam Data Platform v13.1 and Veeam Service Provider Console v9.3, service providers gain new capabilities to expand their service offerings, improve operational efficiency, and support a broader range of customer environments.

Expand Service Offerings with Enhanced BaaS and DRaaS Capabilities

Veeam Data Platform v13.1 introduces new capabilities that help service providers expand and strengthen their backup and disaster recovery (DR) offerings. Enhancements to Veeam Cloud Connect make it easier to deliver tenant-isolated services, including support for encrypted tenant backup recovery and expanded recovery options across ... Read more

It's the middle of the night and your primary site just went dark. You open the disaster recovery runbook you wrote six months ago, and the first step tells you to connect to a server at an IP address that no longer exists. Now you're 20 minutes in, and you're not even sure you're on the right box yet. Read more

Kubernetes has crossed the threshold from modern choice to baseline expectation. The 2025 CNCF Annual Cloud Native Survey confirms what platform teams already know from experience: Kubernetes is now the standard infrastructure for containerized workloads, and the organizations running it are no longer early adopters experimenting in a sandbox. Instead, they are enterprises with production-critical applications, complex multi-site environments, regulatory obligations, and no tolerance for unplanned downtime. The infrastructure is mature, but the protection strategies haven't always kept up. Read more

More than 70 new features ship in v13.1, including automated Active Directory Forest Recovery, threat detection extended to more workloads, post-quantum cryptography, and Veeam Intelligence that evolves from an assistant that answers questions into an agent that investigates and acts. Read more

Data isn't slowing down, and neither is what it costs to keep it. As unstructured data keeps multiplying, AI is driving up both the volume that organizations create and the pressure to hold onto it. And a supply-constrained hard drive market is pushing storage costs up and lead times out. Meanwhile, tightening data-residency and compliance rules mean more data must be kept longer, proven clean, and stored in a specific location. Read more

In February of 2024, a consortium of law enforcement agencies took down LockBit ransomware group. The discovery that LockBit retained victims’ stolen data despite promises to delete it demonstrates a critical flaw in the advice often given to ransomware victims. At the time, many legal and incident response professionals recommended payment on the assumption that LockBit had a strong financial incentive to honor its commitments and that the likelihood of data being publicly released after payment was relatively low. While that assessment may have appeared reasonable based on short-term observed outcomes, it relied heavily on assumptions about the behavior of a criminal enterprise that could never be independently verified.

IBM Maximo has been a mainstay of Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) for decades. Organizations running physical assets at scale — power and utilities, oil and gas, transportation networks, manufacturing plants, facility operations, aviation, and healthcare providers — lean on it to manage preventive maintenance schedules, inventory, work orders, and the full lifecycle of equipment that keeps operations running.

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) is a data-first security approach that continuously discovers sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, and on-premises environments, classifies it, and reveals who can access it and how it’s exposed, so teams can reduce risk before it becomes a breach, a compliance gap, or an AI governance problem.

Running OpenShift Virtualization at enterprise scale surfaces three challenges that don't go away on their own: Protecting large VM estates efficiently without full-image backup overhead, maintaining consistent coverage as environments grow and change, and getting fleet-wide visibility without managing every cluster independently. Read more

By the time a security team sits down to write its shadow AI policy, the problem is already months old. Dozens of unsanctioned AI tools are usually in use across the organization, and most of them are invisible to IT. The people using them aren't being reckless. They're trying to hit deadlines, and the approved path is slower than the browser tab that’s already open in front of them. Read more
