Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform

We have been using Veeam as a centralized, company-wide tool for DB backups and DB restores for all SQL servers (Non-Prod & Prod) for many years, which does provide operational efficiency, consistency, flexibility, quality and disaster recovery capability with needed portability to integrate with other vendor's data management or data masking tools.

Pros

  • DB backups
  • DB restores
  • Portability

Cons

  • Increase other DB platform support
  • Virtualized workloads
  • NAS filers
  • In addition to back up, we also snapshot some of these workloads
  • Capacity Tier to store data within object storage for longer term retention
  • Capacity Tier to store data within object storage for longer term retention
VM workloads mainly currently and within our expectation.
Lack of a centralized, company-wide DB backup/restore tool before Veeam
Most of our data assets are on-prem, cloud migration is under evaluation.
We have Commvault for backing up Db2 databases.
