Veeam is exhibiting at IBM Think 2018 this week, showing our joint IBM Cloud offerings, IBM storage integrated solutions and new managed services by IBM Business Resiliency Services. As Think opens today, it gives me an opportunity to reflect on the large contribution strong alliance relationships like IBM play in Veeam’s continued, unprecedented growth. This kind of success only comes from an ecosystem that works together. One that is built on a shared focus on customer needs, from the SMB market all the way up to the largest enterprise.

IBM is an excellent partner for Veeam, our ecosystem, and our ... Read more

Back up is the first step along the journey toward data Availability and backing up data is a day to day task many of us do without knowing it. The real value in those backups is achieving efficient and fast recovery to meet the crucial demands of the business. Over the years Veeam has become synonymous with data Availability and with the integration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) storage, users gain industry-leading recovery capabilities to minimize data loss. This integration allows storage snapshots to become more purposeful through Veeam Explorer for Storage Snapshots, Backup from Storage Snapshots and On-Demand Sandbox for Storage Snapshots.

From the very beginning of Veeam’s history, it has been our people and our products that have set the company apart from others. Our customers continually share with us that their endorsement is because “Veeam Just Works.”

This isn’t a throw away phrase or marketing slogan. We recognize that every customer, every partner, every vendor that does business with Veeam is betting their reputation and sometimes their career on our products.

This is why I’m pleased to share that Veeam Availability Suite 9.5 has taken Gold and has been named Product of the Year in Backup and Disaster Recovery Software and Services category in TechTarget’s Storage magazine and SearchStorage Products of the Year awards.

The awards ... Read more

Today, in observance of International Women’s Day, I share my thoughts on what this means for Veeam and how elevating our female workforce is essential to our continued success.

VeeamON is expanding!

As you’ve probably noticed, Veeam continues to grow from “just” the world’s best protection for virtual environments to delivering similar outcomes for physical servers, endpoints, Infrastructure as a Service-hosted (IaaS) servers and Microsoft Office 365. Those capabilities are the foundation for our protection, recovery, enablement and Availability solutions. In addition to that, we’ve acquired more IaaS capabilities through N2WS, released new monitoring solutions and delivered automation and orchestration through Veeam Availability Orchestrator.

We wrote this blog to better educate you on the myriad Veeam solutions that will make VeeamON 2018 bigger and better. This year, we’re offering seven “Green Threads” (you could call them tracks) that ... Read more

Veeam Management Pack (MP) for System Center has always been a great way for enterprises to clearly connect mission-critical applications to the vital systems they run on down to the virtualization and hardware levels.

Customer satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do. It’s in our DNA, at every level of the organization, and we know this ethos is working. Why? Because our users keep telling everyone who will listen exactly what they think of us, and what they say about Veeam is fantastic!

Throughout our journey, we learned about the breadth, scope and location of our data, we started to manage it, and we validated that it was protected and secured. However, completing these tasks still did not ensure compliance.

This only encompassed the first 3 principles of the 5 lessons which we learned.

This journey brought us to the final two principles: Documentation and Compliance, as well as Continuous Improvement.

Lesson 4 and 5 can be brought together. Everything you do today for documentation, and that is automated, can also be used for continuous improvement.

First, it is important that each process in your environment is documented. The data itself might be classified and secure, ... Read more

I love data protection within IT— so much so that I am starting my 30th year focused on DP by leaving the analyst world and going back to the vendor world at Veeam. Here's why:

After seven blessed years as the Principal Analyst at ESG covering data protection, I've never been more amazed at the amount of innovation occurring to solve the ever-changing challenge of DP. Notice that I didn’t say “never-ending problem”. The greatest challenge here isn't that "backup is perpetually broken". It’s the expectations of users and the requirements of organizations that continue to heighten. This means that technologies that aren't visionary and innovative become lethargic ... Read more
