Cloud Data Retention
Unlimited capacity for long-term data retention with native object storage
Scale infinitely with native object storage
Data growth and compliance requirements are demanding longer-term data retention; this is driving the need for scalable lower-cost data storage solutions.
Veeam Cloud Tier provides unlimited capacity for long-term data retention by using native, cost effective object storage integrations with Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, IBM Cloud Object Storage, S3-compatible service providers or on-premises storage offerings.
For tape-based data retention, Veeam® also offers Virtual Tape Library (VTL) integrations with Amazon S3, Glacier and Azure Blob.
Cost-effective long-term data retention
Veeam Cloud Tier, included in NEW Veeam Availability Suite 9.5 Update 4, is the built-in automatic tiering feature of Scale-out Backup Repository™ that offloads older backup files to more affordable storage, such as cloud or on-premises object storage. You can:
- Leverage the lower cost, simplicity and elasticity of object storage including Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, IBM Cloud Object Storage, S3-compatible service providers or on-premises storage offerings.
- Store data in the cloud without any double charges unlike with other backup providers who impose a “cloud tax” on top of the cloud provider’s storage cost.
- Avoid vendor lock-in associated with secondary storage appliances.
Veeam’s native object storage integrations
Cloud-based object storage
Veeam Cloud Tier allows customers to move backup files as they age out of the operational restore window to cloud-based object storage targets, including Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure Blob and IBM Cloud Object Storage.
S3-compatible providers
Customers can leverage Veeam Cloud Tier to move data to a variety of on-premises unified storage systems that are S3 compatible.
This gives you more options for long-term data retention needs.
Managed cloud providers
Veeam has cloud and managed service provider partners who are experts in data protection. Our partners offer data retention services to hyperscale clouds, or to their own clouds, and wrap these offerings with managed services, so you can focus on other strategic IT priorities.
