Grouping similar virtual machines into the same job has always been a best practice from Veeam but this can result in backup files becoming very large over time. Scale-out Backup Repositories work alongside another new feature in v9, per-VM backup chains. This is all managed through a secure web portal with single port connectivity using a secure SSL/TLS connection. The recovery process can be configured with 1-click failover orchestration along with full testing that doesn’t disrupt production workloads. A key component of this service is the cloud host which provides CPU, RAM, storage and networking resources and will allow replicated VM’s to be recovered in the event of a disaster at the production site. In v9 we now have a cloud based disaster recovery-as-a-service (DRaaS) offering where you can replicate business critical virtual machines to a service provider. With v8 Cloud Connect allowed you to store copies of your backup data offsite with a service provider.
I’ve chosen five new features that are of particular interest to me and I’ll explore these in more detail below. Veeam have recently released v9 of their Availability Suite and this is a free upgrade to all customers with an active support contract.
