Veeam® Software introduces Veeam Data Cloud, a new solution built on Microsoft Azure, blending the reliability of the top industry platform with cloud accessibility. It offers backup-as-a-service (BaaS) for Microsoft 365 and Azure, ensuring superior resilience and utilizing robust data protection and security tech in a user-friendly interface.
Anand Eswaran, CEO at Veeam, highlighted the growing trend towards Backup as-a-Service (BaaS) and Disaster Recovery as-a-Service (DRaaS) among enterprises, citing Veeam’s position as the global leader in data protection and ransomware recovery. The new offerings, integrated into the Veeam Data Platform, simplify backup operations while ensuring cyber resiliency and reliability.
The cloud-native design of Veeam Data Cloud, combined with Microsoft Azure’s compatible data platform, offers optimal protection for Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Azure data. It features policy-driven simplicity, Zero Trust principles, and Azure Blob Storage isolated from production environments to ensure backups remain secure and ready for swift recovery. This all-in-one service includes backup software, infrastructure, and storage, streamlining management and maintaining cost predictability.
John Annand from Info-Tech Research Group praised Veeam Data Cloud for its user-friendly interface, enabling IT professionals to delegate tasks and focus on other priorities. The solution ensures cyber resiliency and data protection wherever workloads are placed, rather than enforcing a single safe haven.
