– Veeam Backup & Replication support for Windows Server Hyper-V brings unprecedented speed and efficiency to Windows Server Hyper-V data protection. Major first-to-market capabilities include: — 2-in-1: backup and replication: Provides image-based backup and near-continuous data protection (near-CDP) in a single solution.
– Built-in deduplication and compression: Included at no extra charge, these capabilities minimize consumption of network bandwidth and backup storage.
– Changed block tracking for Windows Server Hyper-V: Exclusive Veeam technology enables fast, frequent and efficient backup and replication of all VMs, including those running on Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV).
– Additional differentiators for Windows Server Hyper-V include: — Agentless: There are no agents to license, deploy, maintain, or monitor.
– Forever incremental: Eliminates the need for full periodic backups by creating new full backups from incremental backups. This is essential when backing up large VMs or over a WAN.
– Instant file-level recovery: Restore Windows guest files directly from an image-level backup.
Extending the veeam offering to the Microsoft Hyper-V platforms brings further opportunities and end user choice in the virtualization space which has to be a good thing. Anything the vendors can do to improve functionality or scalability is a welcome addition to virtualization as a platform and for onboarding new users to the platform.
