Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

Veeam Backup and Replication is used for both backups and replication of virtual machines from primary to DR sites. We have created backup and replication jobs on managed time intervals through which we can efficiently utilize WAN links while maintaining promised RPOs and RTOs. Application awarded backup, and replication feature is very good and provided object/file-level recovery that reduces time and efforts.

We have approximately sixty-five virtual servers protected by Veeam backup and replication, most of them are replication and a few of them are backups.
  • Availability.
  • Integrity.
  • Reliability.
We were using IBM Tivoli for our backups previously. The features were near to none, and the support was nonexistent. After migration to the virtual infrastructure, we opted for replication to reduce our time to get back online in case of disaster.
We are currently using IBM hybrid cloud for our DR site, fro PR site Virtual machines are replicated and hot backups are also performed.
No we are not currently using this feature, but we would start using it once we would receive the dd3300 data domain
Veeam Backup & Replication is very well suited for situations where the number of concurrent jobs are few. When we run multiple jobs at once, overall performance declines very much. We tried multiple methods and remedies but the problem remained the same.
