Over the course of the past twelve months, the regulation, which replaced its predecessor the Data Protection Directive from 1995, has displayed two key characteristics: it’s both specific and has teeth. Read more

To start day two of VeeamON 2019, we are also celebrating customers who have been innovating with the continuation of Veeam Innovation Awards (VIAs). Read more

Our success has been down to our loyal network of partners and customers, and I was delighted to announce this week that we have exceeded $1 billion in annual bookings and surpassed 350,000 global customers. An immense achievement, but that was Veeam’s Act I.

The release of Veeam Backup & Replication v9.5 U4 earlier this year introduced Veeam Cloud Tier, a new feature allowing our customers to leverage object storage for long-term retention of their backups. The feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive. In true Veeam fashion “it just works.” Veeam Cloud Tier depends on Scale-out Backup Repository, or SOBR as we like to call it.
