We are excited to announce the release of Kasten K10 version 6.0, the latest and most advanced version of our industry-leading platform that provides enterprise-grade Kubernetes data protection and application mobility. This release helps customers scale their cloud native data protection efficiently. Kubernetes deployments are growing at an unprecedented rate. Gartner predicts that by 2027, more than 90% of global organizations will be running containerized applications in production. However, today’s market conditions are scarred with financial uncertainty and a shortage of cloud native skills. Therefore, you must ensure operational efficiencies are in place to unleash the full potential of your cloud native environments while protecting your data. Additionally, security remains an imperative as organizations focus on keeping their businesses running. With this release, we also continue to innovate in this growing ecosystem, so that you can take advantage of the best-of-breed inn...

When it comes to data protection for healthcare, the industry is both similar and unique in its overall trends and IT strategy. That is abundantly clear when you look at both the global and the healthcare industry results in the recently released Veeam 2022 Data Protection Trends report.
The report is the industry’s largest, repeating, independent study of data protection trends worldwide. This year, nearly 3,400 respondents participated in the study, including 399 from healthcare organizations. While the global data is interesting unto itself, the Data Protection Trends Healthcare Executive Brief reveals some interesting insight into the needs, trends and attitudes that are uniquely healthcare.
Protecting all data, no matter where it resides, is important. Healthcare brings a personal dynamic to the mix when outages and delivery gaps directly affect the quality of patient care. That is a key finding from this year’s report.
One important data point that differs with the report’s global finding is the simple measure of healthcare IT leaders’ belief that their organization has an “availability gap” between the SLAs expected and how quickly their IT teams can return to productivity. While the global number is shockingly high (90% of IT leaders), healthcare is a full 6% higher at 96% recognizing a gap between their expectations and what IT is delivering today.
Healthcare IT is simply not meeting data protection objectives. That statistic becomes more ominous given that such a higher percentage of healthcare servers suffered at least one outage last year when compared to the report’s global finding. To dig a little bit deeper into some of the unique details and similarities of the report’s healthcare and global data, check out the video below.
That’s great insight, for those of you that are in the healthcare IT space, into where things are and where they are going according to your peers. But there is much more to learn from this report. Check out these recent and upcoming blog posts for additional insights and findings, and don’t forget to download the full report.
We would love to hear back from you. Please reach out to Jason (@JBuff) or Dave Russell (@BackupDave) and let us know how this research aligns with your organization’s data protection goals for 2022.
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...
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...
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...
