Veeam entered the data protection software landscape in 2006. When it was introduced in 2008, Veeam’s core product, Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR), exclusively protected VMware environments. Veeam has since added support for additional hypervisors (including Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV and Red Hat Virtualization), for physical servers, for cloud-delivered resources, and, through its Kasten acquisition of 2020, for containerized environments. Today, Veeam supports multiple versions of VMware ESXi, and it includes agents to back up various versions of Windows Server, Linux, Mac, and UNIX operating systems (OSes). Veeam’s SaaS-delivered support for AWS-native sources (including EC2, EFS and RDS), Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure IaaS, Microsoft Azure SQL, Microsoft 365, and Salesforce is covered separately in Evaluator Group’s Backup-as-a-Service Research.
Usage
VBR protects physical and virtual environments, onpremises and in the cloud. It uses image-level, incremental backups, replication, continuous data protection, array-based snapshot and replication, and tiering capabilities to address a range of data protection use cases.
