Why VMware vSphere and Veeam

vSphere remains the enterprise data center standard and it is also where Veeam offers the deepest feature set: it is the only platform with Continuous Data Protection (CDP). Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1 adds VMware Cloud Foundation 9.1 support and full VDDK 9 compatibility.

VMware Cloud Director support and, as of 13.1, VMware Cloud Foundation 9.1 and VDDK 9.

What you can do with Veeam

Protection capabilities available on VMware vSphere in Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1.

backup

Agentless incremental backup

Forever-incremental copies using native VMware CBT. Only changed blocks travel, shrinking the backup window and network usage.

bolt

Instant Recovery

Boot the machine straight from the repository in minutes, without waiting for a full restore. Targets: vSphere itself, Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV or Proxmox VE.

find_in_page

Granular restore

Recover a single file, a mailbox or a database table without bringing up the whole VM or restoring the entire backup.

apps

Application-aware processing

Consistent copies of SQL Server, Exchange, Active Directory, Oracle and PostgreSQL, with log truncation and point-in-time restore.

security

Malware scanning

Content analysis of the backup to spot dormant threats and locate the last clean point before restoring.

cloud_upload

Immutable offsite copy

Automatic shipping of restore points to our Madrid repository, with immutability and end-to-end encryption.

And the copy that saves you: offsite at EasyDataHost

Local backup handles accidental deletion. It does not handle fire, theft, or ransomware that reaches the backup console. That is why the copy of your VMware vSphere environment leaves your infrastructure and lands in our Tier III+ Madrid data center.

lock

Real immutability

Once written, the copy cannot be modified or deleted until retention expires. Not even with compromised admin credentials.

key

End-to-end encryption

AES-256 in transit and at rest. You hold the keys: without them the data is unreadable, including to us.

How it works

1

Veeam protects your VMware vSphere environment

Backup jobs run against your infrastructure and write to your local repository, on the window and retention you define.

2

A backup copy job does the rest

You add our repository as the secondary target. Veeam ships restore points automatically, incrementally and encrypted.

3

GFS retention and immutability

Daily, weekly, monthly and yearly per your policy. With immutability on, nobody can delete them early — you included.

4

You restore when you need to

Full VM, disk, file or application, straight from the offsite copy and without downloading the whole backup.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need agents inside every virtual machine? expand_more
No. Veeam uses the VMware vStorage APIs for Data Protection (VADP) to read disks straight from storage, without installing anything inside the VM. Application-aware processing does inject a temporary runtime to quiesce SQL Server, Exchange, Active Directory or Oracle, but leaves no resident software behind.
What does CDP add over traditional backup? expand_more
CDP continuously replicates changes through the VMware I/O filter, delivering seconds-level RPO instead of hours. It is the answer for critical workloads where losing 24 hours of data is unacceptable. CDP is available on vSphere only.
Can I restore onto your infrastructure if I lose my VMware vSphere? expand_more
Yes. Beyond the offsite repository, we can bring your workloads up on our infrastructure while you rebuild yours. That is what our DRaaS service covers, and it runs on the same offsite copy you already have.

Shall we set up the offsite copy for your VMware vSphere?

We help you size the repository, define retention and leave the jobs running. No lock-in, with a trial first.
