What is veambackup?

Veeam Backup & Replication is a modern data protection solution that provides backup, recovery, and replication functionality for VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV, and physical servers. It is designed to increase the availability of virtual machines and applications, while reducing backup and recovery time and costs.

Veeam Backup & Replication uses a unique approach to data protection, leveraging snapshot technology to create lightweight point-in-time copies of VMs. These snapshots are then used as the source data for backup jobs, minimizing the impact on production VMs and reducing recovery time objectives (RTOs) and recovery point objectives (RPOs).

The solution includes features such as instant recovery, where VMs can be recovered in seconds directly from the backup, without the need to restore data to production storage. It also provides advanced replication capabilities, enabling businesses to achieve high availability and disaster recovery for their critical virtualized workloads.

Veeam Backup & Replication is scalable, with support for both small and large environments, and can be deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or as a hybrid solution. Its intuitive and user-friendly interface makes it easy for IT professionals to manage and monitor their backup and recovery operations.
