Auckland, April 28, 2020: Enterprise cloud OS leader, Nutanix, and Veeam Software have announced a comprehensive data protection and management
solution to support most storage environments. It will see Veeam’s Backup & Replication software embedded with Nutanix Mine, providing a robust and automated response to help companies protect
and access their data during these turbulent times.
The comprehensive data protection and management solution includes all the software, and any hardware components,
required to support multiple storage environments and enables data recovery for mission critical applications. It also
provides a foundation for longer-term data retention solutions.
Data is now a key asset for many businesses and protection and back-up of business data as well as ensuring continued
access, availability and integrity is vital for business continuity and survivability.
With COVID-19 continuing to sweep across Asia Pacific, sustainability and survivability remain top of mind for business
leaders as routine datacentre and critical infrastructure operations are affected due to restrictions on staff movement
and access to facilities. So it is timely that Nutanix and Veeam have developed this joint solution.
Nutanix Mine already integrates secondary storage operations with Nutanix Enterprise Cloud, delivering a comprehensive
solution for both primary and secondary storage within a private cloud environment[1]. The platform eliminates the complexity often found in traditional data protection solutions and removes the usual time
consuming and manual processes, such as archiving of devices like tape drives.
Combined with Veeam, Nutanix Mine is further enhanced to make integrated data protection and cloud data management
easier, providing performance, web-scalability, and intuitive back-up simplicity. The product comes with a newly
designed dashboard that highlights the status of both Nutanix and Veeam infrastructure and includes a standard number of
Veeam licences for easy procurement.
Some of the benefits include:Fast Time to Value – Better customer experience for ordering, deployment, sizing, management, scaling, agility and
support.Unified IT Operations – Integrated management operations from deployment to day-to-day data management. Eliminates
overhead.Drop-In, Scale Up and Scale Out – Full-stack hypervisor, hardware, platform OS, management, storage, and support.
The solution comes in two form factors: Each optimised for performance and customer requirements. Customers can begin
with small or medium solutions, specifically designed to support up to 250 virtual machines (VMs) or 500 VMs[2] respectively.
Both options allow systems to be easily added for up to a maximum of eight nodes. This helps customers meet their
growing business needs by increasing their data protection with minimum disruption to the business as it grows.
Customers can quickly deploy Veeam Backup and Replication integrated with Nutanix storage management via a turnkey
solution that reduces the time and complexity of data protection across the data centre and cloud. The solution delivers
fast time-to-value, unified IT operations, and the ability to easily drop-in and scale up or scale out to meet the needs
of today’s modern datacentre.
