Happy Holidays Giveaway 2021: Free Premium Swag

2021 has been a year to remember. I would like to focus on some good things to highlight and provide you a chance to add some holiday joy!

I was really impressed with how many products we added at Veeam this year. From the incredible V11 launch (Did you upgrade yet? If not, check this out.) to the incredible progression through the cloud products.

In fact, it’s worth noting that Veeam Backup for AWS, Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure and Veeam Backup for Google Compute Platform have moved very quickly. I didn’t have many work trips in 2021, but the biggest one was at the end of the year with AWS re:Invent (See Dave Russell and Jason Buffington’s recap!). The last “big event” I did before 2020 was AWS: re:Invent 2019, where we launched version 1 of Veeam Backup for AWS. It’s incredible to watch this product and community grow.

2021 had a smashing VeeamON and the now-here-to-stay VeeamON Update online event that carried our audience through the year. I’m also happy to report we are planning an outstanding hybrid VeeamON 2022. I can’t wait!

The end of the year also is an opportunity to give back to our audience with an assortment of premium prizes. We’ve done a number of different formats over the years for the end-of-year giveaway, but given that 2021 is Veeam’s 15th anniversary, we are going to give away 15 premium prizes:

I do have a piece of bad news to report, however. I’m not eligible to win any of these items… While I do effectively curate the Veeam “Museum” at the Ohio office in the United States and I have basically one of every type of Veeam swag, I can’t get this stuff. But you can.

You can register for the swag online, but hurry as we close the site on Dec. 31, 2021. I’ll be sure to update this post with the winners’ info after the program winners are finalized (we have to get their approval and there are terms and conditions for the drawing, including which parts of the world the prizes are eligible).

One other cool twist is the ability to make greeting cards to share! There are 16 ultra-cool, holiday-themed liveries to choose from. I’m giving this one a name, the BIONIC SNOWMAN, and it’s my favorite!

If you like this, great, there are plenty more where that came from and you can share it with your social networks easily!

2022 will be an epic year at Veeam. With the new Salesforce backup product, the goodness coming with V12, the next frontier with Kubernetes, cloud and Microsoft 365… I can tell you I am excited! How excited? This excited:

Register now for the holiday giveaway and good luck! Be sure to check back here in February or so when we can announce the winners. Happy Holidays from Veeam!

How to use a SOBR with Veeam Backup & Replication

Image
For those of us who have been in the business of backing up data for a while, we’re used to making copies of data on different types of media. I won’t date myself by mentioning reel-to-reel tapes, but the journey started with tape and then backing up data to block/file-based disk storage came along. More recently, a new kid on the block has become a popular destination for backed up data, object storage. Veeam started to use object storage as a target when we released Veeam Backup & Replication 9.5 Update 4 in January 2019 by introducing our use of AWS S3 compliant object storage via the Capacity Tier. A year later, we launched Veeam Backup & Replication v10 which featured support for object locking to provide data immutability for object storage. Immutability provides protection from ransomware attacks by locking the objects which prevents them from being modified or deleted by malicious software or humans. Today, Veeam Backup & Replication is protecting hundreds of petab...

How To Migrate a Veeam Backup & Replication Configuration Database to PostgreSQL

Image
Before Veeam Backup & Replication v11, the product used SQL Server to create and store its configuration database. It has always been possible to use SQL Server Express to store a Veeam Backup & Replication, however, this version of SQL Server had some critical limitations. In the 2022 version of SQL Server Express, the most relevant limitations were: Use of one socket or four cores Use of only 1.4GB per instance 10GB limit for databases In an environment of 500 machines or fewer, these limitations may not have an impact, but if you have a large backup environment, you had to migrate to one of the paid SQL Server versions to avoid these limitations. You can check the limits for each version of SQL Server 2022 by clicking this link . For V12 and with scalability, performance and licensing cost in mind, Veeam introduced the possibility of using PostgreSQL as a configuration database. PostgreSQL is a relational database management system that’s been used for over 35 years...

Use Snapshots to backup SMB File Shares on your NetApp ONTAP system

Image
update notice: The information in this blog post has been updated on April 1st, 2022. Since Veeam Backup & Replication version 10, it’s possible to back up NAS shares with the SMB (CIFS) and NFS protocol. One of the challenges with backing up large file shares is doing so in a consistent state. This blog post shows how to create a consistent backup of an SMB share hosted on a NetApp ONTAP based storage. NetApp storage snapshot, Microsoft VSS snapshot or Storage Integration? Veeam offers three ways to back up a NetApp ONTAP SMB share in a consistent state. With NetApp storage integration From a NetApp storage snapshot (without integration) With Microsoft remote VSS snapshot Using the storage integration is the easiest way to get the latest state with very few configuration steps. Using an alternative snapshot path allows complex scenarios like backing up from a SnapMirror/SnapVault location but it involves scripting or a schedule on NetApp to create and delete t...
